Plot Synopsis

Hosted by Ben Gleib and based on the game app, IDIOTEST is a half-hour gameshow that pits two pairs of contestants with a preexisting rivalry against each other to determine which team has two true idiots. The rival pairs -- anything from colleges (UCLA vs. USC) to sci-fi fans (STAR TREK vs. STAR WARS) -- go head to head in several rounds of rapid-fire questions whose answers any "idiot" should know. The questions, taken from the game, test observation skill, attention to detail and general knowledge, as the contestants play the game on a giant touch screen in the center of the set. On Wednesday, April 1, 2015 at 8pm ET/PT, GSN premiered the second season of IDIOTEST. Host Ben Gleib plays an integral role in the Season 2 opener that features some April Fool's-related stunts being kept under wraps. Plus, the remainder of the season features new types of tests and rivalries, as well as a variety of themes amongst the competitors. Season 3 of IDIOTEST premiered on Tuesday, April 12, 2016 from 10-11pm ET/PT, as GSN debuted back-to-back new episodes.
