Mates on a Mission is a travel program from Australia that debuted on the Seven Network on 13 January 2022. Featuring Shane Jacobson, Todd McKenney, Kris Smith, and Brian “B.T.” Taylor, the series follows the group as they journey abroad to complete challenges aimed at promoting awareness for important health issues including mental health, heart disease, and bowel cancer. This ensemble previously collaborated on the 2018 charity reality show The Real Full Monty.
Production commenced in early 2019 with filming locations spanning Germany, Japan, and Las Vegas; however, the process was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in an incomplete shoot. Initially planned for release in either 2019 or 2020, the series experienced delays and was ultimately rescheduled to air during Seven Network’s 2021/22 summer lineup.
