In 1989, television producers David Sams and Mike Miller worked with Griffiths to produce "RollerGames", a U.S. television show that presented an even more theatrical variant of the sport for a national audience. It featured a steeply banked figure-eight track, an alligator pit, and a number of skaters who had been in the Roller Games league, as well as younger participants. It was broadcast for one season (1989–1990) before its distributor, Quintex Media, went bankrupt. The bankruptcy was not related to the popularity of "RollerGames". Ratings for the series were actually quite high, even beating the popular "American Gladiators".
