FOX to launch 99 to Beat with Ken Jeong and Erin Andrews

[Hawkee]

Get ready for the ultimate challenge in 99 To 0 a new game show debuting on FOX this fall. Hosted by Ken Jeong and Erin Andrews 99 To 0 will feature contestants trying to do various challenges for a huge money prize. When I first saw the trailer for this game show I think 99 To 0 is a ripoff of NBC's Minute To Win It with some elements of Nickelodeon's Double Dare and it will be interesting to see how great this show will be. But why Ken Jeong as the host of 99 To 0 is quite a surprise because he is known as a comedian but we shall see how he hosts game shows

I saw some promos for this today. I agree with your comparisons. It has a special early sneak peak tonight.

It's actually called 99 to Beat. I edited the title for you. It's based on the Belgium game show of the same name.

99 to 0 is what it felt like the Atlanta Falcons lost to the Carolina Panthers today. It was actually only 30 to 0.

Okay I’m oblivious….what differences are there among “1 vs 100”, “The 1% Club,” and “99 to Beat”? They sound alike to me.

99 to Beat I couldn't say, have no intention of watching. 1 vs. 100 had regular contestants competing against a mob of 100 varied panelists including Ken Jennings (who was eliminated surprisingly early). Bob Saget would say do you want the money or the mob? The 1% Club starts with 100 contestants. They are asked unusual questions that 90% of Americans got right, down to 80%, 70%, several other levels down to 10%, 5% and finally 1%. If any remaining contestants answer the 1% question right, they get to join the exclusive 1% club.
