The Big Fat Quiz
The Big Fat Quiz is an annual British television programme broadcast on the last Sunday of the year on Channel 4. Essentially, the show is a comedy panel show in the style of a pub quiz. Three teams, of two celebrities each, are asked questions relating to the events of the year just gone by, which they write answers to on an electronic board in front of them. At the end of each round, they then display their answers, scoring a point for each correct one. The first edition was broadcast in December 2004. There has been another at the end of each year since, as well as a special edition in November 2007 for Channel 4's 25th anniversary celebrations.
Cops
COPS follows police officers, constables, and sheriff's deputies during patrols and various police activities by embedding camera crews with their units. The show's formula adheres to a classic cinéma vérité ethos. With no narration or scripted dialog, it depends entirely on the commentary of the officers and on the actions of the people with whom they come into contact.
The Traitors
Set in a remote castle in the Scottish Highlands and based on the wildly popular Dutch series of the same name, 5-time Emmy-nominated Alan Cumming plays host to twenty larger-than-life personalities (including reality A-listers and America's best game players) who come together to complete a series of challenges with the objective of earning a cash prize of up to $250,000. The catch? Three of the contestants coined "the traitors" will devise a plan to steal the prize from the other contestants coined "the faithful".
The Traitors
Nail-biting psychological competition where 22 strangers play the ultimate reality game of detection, backstabbing and trust, in the hope of winning up to £120,000.
Canada's Drag Race
Competing for the title of Canada's Next Drag Superstar, and a $100,000 grand prize, Canada's Drag Race tracks Canadian drag artists as they vie for the title of "Canada's Next Drag Superstar." Each episode tests their limits by having them compete in singing, dancing, acting, impersonation, design, and improvisation challenges. Competitors are eliminated until one queen is left standing with the crown, scepter, and coveted title. Throughout their journey to the crown, the queens showcase the importance of celebrating everyone's Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent.
