“The show is a twist on the classic quiz show’s ‘answer-and-question’ format that combines the academic rigor of Jeopardy! with the exciting and ever-changing world of pop culture,” reads the show’s official synopsis. “Contestants compete on teams to test their knowledge on a variety of categories as they compete in a tournament-style event for the grand prize and ultimate bragging rights.”
