I've been binge-watching a game show on Netflix. It's listed as Bullsh*t The Gameshow.
For whatever reason, I had never heard of it before. No social network posts, no casting email, nothing.
I love the concept. Think of it as WWTBAM with the person in the hot seat explaining why their answer is right, even after being shown the correct answer. If they are right, then they move up the money tree. Then three contestants vote if the answer given is true or bullshit. If one of the three is wrong, the hot seater moves up. Some of the big money winners have been right only a few times. The top prize is $1,000,000.
They taped just ten shows, and there's no word about a second season.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Re: Bullshit
How strange. I'm reading a 2018 novel by Anne Tyler, Clock Dance, in which folks are playing that game. Only it was originally called I Doubt It, and the main character was a bit nonplussed about "bullshit" etc.
I had never heard of the game before and now it's a thing!

Re: Bullshit
I saw a mention of Howie Mandel as the host, and it seemed like a good fit.
