Meter Television , one of Sweden's leading production companies, is searching for Americans with Swedish ancestry for a new reality TV-show to be filmed in Sweden.

The Producers of the Swedish version of “ American Idol” and “ Minute To Win It” are coming to the U.S. to find "fun and outgoing Americans with Swedish ancestry" to participate in their new television series titled “The Great Swedish Adventure.”

“It’s sort of like ‘The Amazing Race’ with a ‘fish out of water’ hook,” said Christer Åkerlund, producer of the project.

Chosen participants will travel to Sweden and compete in extreme cultural challenges to discover their rich and fascinating roots while trying to win the grand prize: meeting their Swedish relatives.
