Great recommendation, reminds me of Ken Jennings Kennections for Mental Floss.

I’ve always thought American game shows are overly simplistic. My quizbowl friends and I in high school would watch University Challenge together. Much less serious is the Big Fat Quiz of the Year.

Random thought but it seems like game shows are much more regional than other media. Americans do like British TV and vice versa but we never seem to watch your game shows, and the rest of the world seems to have no idea how Jeopardy works.
