The program proved popular and continued for an additional eight and a half years, with subsequent episodes airing approximately every six months until May 1985. One final competition aired in December 1988. NBC tried to revive the competition in 2003, but with an intra-network contest consisting of personalities from the NBC family of networks. Typically, episodes were aired twice per calendar year, once during the spring and once during the fall during Nielsen Ratings sweeps weeks. Sports broadcaster Howard Cosell hosted or co-hosted all but one of the first nineteen competitions ( he did not host the 1985 edition due to a falling - out with ABC, but he returned for the final edition in 1988 ), and commented on the action with a semi-serious version of the style for which he was famous. When ABC revived the program as a weekly series in 2017, Mike Greenberg and Joe Tessitore took over the hosting duties. Format 1976 -- 1988 Each network was represented by eight or ten of its stars from various series, and one of those people from each team would be elected to serve as the network 's team captain. Some of the events were modeled after those used on The Superstars, another Trans World - ABC production that featured athletes from all sports competing against each other for an overall title. Regular events included swimming, kayaking, volleyball, golf, tennis, bowling ( on custom - made outdoor lanes ), cycling, 3 - on - 3 football, the baseball dunk, running, and the obstacle course. Also featured as a regular event was a game of `` Simon Says '', directed by Catskill hotel Grossinger 's entertainer Lou Goldstein. Each network received points based on how it performed in the event. After the regular events were over, the lowest scoring network was eliminated from further competition and the two remaining networks determined the day 's winner with a tug of war. 2017 -- present Two teams of five celebrities compete each week with a professional athlete as their coach ( The coaches return throughout the season ). The teams are typically assigned based on the genre or role of the celebrities ' notable TV credits. For example, one episode pitted prime - time soap opera stars against actors associated with comedies, while another had had actors who played lawyers vs. those who played White House employees. Teams often include at last one veteran actor or actress who previously competed in the original Battle of the Network Stars and archive footage of their previous appearance ( s ) is shown. The venue remains Pepperdine University, as was the original. Rosters 1976 -- 1988 Battles I - III : Each network had a roster of 10 stars : six men and four women.
