On tonight's two episodes of Idiotest, the bonus round is changed. The two members of the winning team work together, just like in round one. The team has one minute to answer five questions correctly. Each time a correct answer is touched, another question is played. However, each time an incorrect answer is touched, the team gets a five-second penalty, and they must touch another answer. If the team gets five questions right before time runs out, their total winnings increase to $10,000. If the team runs out of time, they get $500 added to their winnings for each question they got right.

Do you happen to hear of this show called Celebrity Name Game, Flo?

I have heard of that show. I watched it, and I talked about it on the previous page on this topic.

On tonight's episode of The Chase, Wink Martindale made a special appearance at the beginning of it in honor of the 20th anniversary of GSN.

A new season of The Chase premiered tonight, and it premiered with three of the contestants who were caught by the Beast returning to the show for another chance to outrun him and win the big money.

I just found out that six days ago, GSN is working on their second version of Chain Reaction; their first one lasted from August 1, 2006 to June 9, 2007. Vincent Rubino will be the executive producer of this new version. There's no other information about this new version for now, but I'll let you know more about it when more information comes.

Here's an update on the new version of Chain Reaction:
A host has been confirmed. It will be hosted by radio personality Mike Catherwood. Also, just like the USA Network/Global Television Network version and the UK version, the game will be played by teams of two instead of teams of three.

Yesterday, I've found out about a new game show that premiered on HLN that day. It's called Keywords, and it's hosted by former Olympic champion Summer Sanders, who hosted the Nickelodeon panel game show Figure It Out from 1997 to 1999.
In Keywords, two teams of two are shown up to five clues to a "search item". The more clues needed, the less points the teams got a chance to score. A team that buzzes in with a correct guess scores the points, but if they buzz in and they're wrong, they have to sit out the next clue, while the other team gets to take a guess on that clue.

The new season of Idiotest premiered tonight. The game is the same. The "Smart Money Round" was played the same way it was originally played in season one. The differences made in this season are that the teams' seats are removed, and there are two touch screens on the set instead of just one.
Also, a new game show premiered on MTV2 tonight. It's called Joking Off, and it's hosted by stand-up comedian DeRay Davis, who hosted Mind Of A Man on GSN last year. This show features three teams of two jokesters performing improvisational acts based on social media to get laughs. Whoever is the least successful at the end of a round is "joked off".

Next week, we have a new show coming up on GSN. It's called Lie Detectors, and it will be hosted by Australian television personality Rove McManus. From what I've seen in the commercials, members of the studio audience have a chance to win money by finding out which panelist is telling a lie.

I've watched Lie Detectors yesterday and today. I'll explain how the show works, right now.
In the first three rounds, each panelist gives some wild information on a subject. Two of the panelists are lying, while one of them is telling the truth. Members of the studio audience use their keypads to decide who they think is telling the truth. The audience member who made the most correct guesses in the fastest time wins $1,000 and gets to play the final round where the panelists each make a confession, and the contestant has to pick who they think is telling the truth to increase their winnings to $5,000.

I'm guessing if I understand this correctly, they are using Puppets that are telling either lies or Truth's, right Flo?

No, they're not using puppets. They're using real people. The game show that uses a panel of puppets is called Late Night Liars, and that aired back in 2010.

GSN is now showing two episodes of Lie Detectors every Wednesday instead of one episode every weeknight like it did on its first week. This move was obviously done just to add more Family Feud with Steve Harvey to the lineup, as if GSN didn't have enough Family Feud with Steve Harvey in its lineup already.

Here's something I just found out about Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? This fall, Terry Crews is going to be replaced as the host by Chris Harrison. Chris Harrison is known for hosting The Bachelor, its spin-off called The Bachelorette, and a GSN original called Mall Masters.
