Holey Moley debuted its fourth season on May 3, 2022. The synopsis of the show reads:

What to expect from this week's episode of Holey Moley

ABC's hit game show Holey Moley has been proving to be entertaining for its viewers back home. Episode 3 promises another interesting evening of fun games and challenges.

The official synopsis of the episode, titled Bear, Bear, BEAR!, reads:

“Eight world-class athletes dodge explosions at the a-maize-ing Corn Hole, encounter an un-bear-able surprise at The Distractor and find out feather or not they can overcome The Pecker to earn the golden putter, coveted plaid jacket and a spot in the finals.”

Players need to overcome three stages:

1) Corn Hole - The players had to try to cross the course before the big kernels on the corn pop to avoid any form of penalty.

2) The Distractor - Players had to try to sink a 12-foot putt with an efficient distraction that could potentially stray them from playing the game.

3) The Pecker - Players had to jump on the bobbing woodpecker's head to grab themselves a red feather on it to avoid a penalty.

Last week's episode titled You're Gonna Need a Lawyer aired on May 10, 2022 and saw contestant Nate Kennelly winning the game by successfully overcoming all the obstacles, including Hole Number Two, Fishing Hole, Polecano, Dutch Courage En Fuego, Holeywood, Big Foot Wedge, and Full Mooney.


The show features self-proclaimed mini-golf players from across the country who compete with one another in “out-of-this-world challenges on a supersized course" with the aim of making it to the grand finale and eventually winning the competition and a cash prize of $250,000.

Readers can tune in next week for another interesting episode of Holey Moley on ABC.
