Episode 3 | 1 vs 100

In a game of mob mentality, there are heroes and villains. But in game shows, there is no such thing. There are only contestants and trivia experts. Sometimes this is playful. But remember that being cast on a game show takes more than just knowledge. It takes a personality. But the line between entertaining and cherry-picking is a fine line. On this show, it will take everything you have to become the one. THE MOBThe Mob consists of people from all walks of life. An appearance by any individual or group on the Program is at the sole discretion of Producer. - NBCI WAS THERE – Adam Nedeff, “Stranger”:  Credit to Adam Nedeff for this story and The blooghttps://loogslair.wordpress.com/2013/04/13/the-20-worst-game-shows-of-the-past-10-years-part-4/-------------------------And that’s when one of the other contestants pointed out how truly silly the jargon was. I’ll never forget this: “I don’t have anything against bartenders, but it bothers me that our team includes a surgeon, a firefighter, and a teacher, and the ‘hero’ is a bartender.” That cracked me up, and the guy was absolutely right.---------- Adam Nedeff1 vs 100: Why are you the one, they say? - Game Bouncer In this game, one player (the One) plays against 100 other people (the Mob). The players are asked a series of questions; if the One correctly guesses, he moves on to the next question, while all Mob members who answered incorrectly are knocked out. The goal of the One is to answer as many questions as it takes to knock out all of the Mob. If the One answers a question incorrectly, the game ends, and the prize money is either distributed evenly amongst any remaining Mob members. On the NBC version, contestants playing as The One were one-and-done, while Mob members were able to stay on the Mob and continue earning money until they were eliminated by incorrectly answering a question, at which point they were replaced. The GSN version again has one-and-done appearances for The One, though this time anybody participating in The Mob did so throughout the entire season, even if eliminated.https://web.archive.org/web/20070422021424/http://www.nbc.com/Casting/Applications/1v100_rules.pdfA COOL RULES SHEET from way back about 1 vs 100Thanks for listening to Game Show Roundtable!Visit our official website to listen anywhere without ads: https://fun818.github.io/game-show-roundtable-podcast-website/ Here you’ll find links to all podcast platforms and info on co-hosting.Enjoyed today’s episode?
