Bro-Down Showdown is a live television quiz show where pairs of friends (referred to in-show as "bros") compete against each other to show how much they know about each other. The winners will receive a narratively convenient price.[1]
The show can be held in varying locations. The show has Comedy Chimp as the host and off-screen judges. Before each show, the staff questions each participant in private to gather facts to use for the competition.[1]
Rules
Four pair of friends can participate. During the show, the host asks one from each pair a question about their partner which they must answer. If the contestant answers correctly, the pair earns ten points. Different answers to questions are also deemed correct if they are considered the same as the actual answer (e.g. Lady Walrus answered correct by saying that Dave worked in the fast food industry even though Dave claimed to a villain, as being evil is the same as working in fast food).[2] The pair with the least points at the end of a round get eliminated (or "bro-liminated). This continues until a winner is found.[1]
The show follows the "bro code," meaning that if a pair starts fighting with each other, directly or indirectly, they are instantly disqualified.[1]
