Plot Synopsis

Hosted by Donald Faison, WINSANITY is a half-hour game show series that features contestants attempting to rank ten compelling and surprising facts in numerical order, from lowest to highest (i.e.: Which is greater: the number of marriages each year in the US, or the number of President Barack Obama's Twitter followers?). Every time a contestant is correct and wins a prize, so does a randomly selected portion of the studio audience. However, if a contestant gives a wrong answer at any point, they, and the audience lose everything, and a new contestant takes his or her place and continues the game, trying to win prizes that increase in value with each round. Plus, viewers at home can play the iPowow play-at-home game at WinsanityLive.com, using their smartphone, tablet or laptop. Everyone playing along is interconnected in real time and results can be viewed second by second. All eligible participants are entered into a sweepstakes where if chosen, they would win whatever prizes are won by the contestant(s) on that episode. One participant is chosen for each new episode throughout the season. The play-at-home aspect is unique to the game show format in that no show has previously enabled viewers to see results second-by-second on their TV screen.
