GSN has ordered a 65-episode second season of original series "Idiotest". Comedian Ben Gleib will return as host as well as producer.
"Idiotest" is coming off three straight weeks of ratings increases. The first season of the quiz show nearly doubled its time period average (+82%) among women 18-49 year-to-year.
Based on the popular app game, "Idiotest" features two pairs of contestants who face off in several rounds of rapid-fire questions that look deceptively simple but whose answers require a keen eye, quick mind and heightened sense of logic.
Every question tests observation and attention to detail as much it does general knowledge.
“Idiotest‘s fresh take on brain teasers has resulted in ratings success for GSN in every daypart, across all demographics,” GSN’s EVP Programming Amy Introcaso-Davis said.
