Plot Synopsis

RELATIVE INSANITY is a one-hour gameshow that challenges real families to work beyond their issues by locking them in a room together while competing for a cash prize of $25,000. In each episode, two families are each locked in a room with their own loved ones for 36 hours. During that time, they attempt to outlast and outfox their neighbors next door and earn the most money through physical challenges, wild games and controversial family decisions. Unaware of how much money the other group has earned, families are tempted to spend their winnings on luxuries and household staples to make their stay more bearable. But everything has its price. If anyone can't put up with their family any longer, they can press the "escape button" to leave early -- but they put their entire family's chance of winning at risk.
