Leslie Jones talks about hosting 'Supermarket Sweep' on ABC

NEW YORK -- Ready, set, shop! "Supermarket Sweep" is back on ABC with a new host and bigger prizes than ever.

Leslie Jones hosts as three teams try to get the highest total spent.

"I wanted to bring it back for people who used to love it and people who never knew about it," Jones said. "I think it was really crazy to see the carts and all of that and I was like, 'Wow, this is really going to happen, we're really going to bring this back.'"

The series premiere features contestants in back to back games:

- Lois Arbogast (Alberta, Canada) and Julia Warren (Vancouver, Wash.)

- Chelsie Carlton (Winston-Salem, N.C.) and Jaleah Wilder (Raleigh, N.C.)

- Kelsey Hsing (Cupertino, Calif.) and Patrick Castillo (Philippines)

- Sarah (Stockton, Calif.) and Chris Lerma (Capay, Calif.)

The teams will compete against one another using their grocery shopping skills and knowledge of the merchandise.

The winning duo will race against the clock to find five products in the "Super Sweep" to win the grand prize of $100,000.
