VS. (game show)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
VS. was a game show that ran in 1999 on Comedy Central. It was hosted by Greg Proops (from Whose Line is it Anyway). Joe Liss served as announcer.
The game show featured two specific teams that were supposed to be complete opposites. One example might be firemen vs. pyromaniacs. Proops would ask both teams questions about general topics as well as topics relating to the subject that divided the teams.

[edit] Round 1
In round one, a category is shown containing one of two questions worth $100. Incorrect answers will not be penalized. Any member from either team can buzz-in and may answer the question.
[edit] Round 2
In round two, there are five questions in a category that is related to the team. Answering from their own board scores them $200, if they answer from the opponents' board, they receive $400, but an incorrect answer will cost $200.
[edit] Round 3
In the final round, each player will answer three questions against an opponent. Each question can be answered by one of three choices. Right answers score $250, incorrect answers will deduct $250. The high scoring team plays at the end of the game will play the "Grand Finale."
[edit] Bonus Round (Grand Finale)
In the bonus round called "Grand Finale", the winning team can win another $1000 by answering a question from one of two categories, one of which being skewed towards the winning team's knowledge. For instance, in the Cops Vs. Hippies Episode, the categories the latter were to choose from were "International Grandmasters of Chess" and "Hippy Poems." If correct they win the money. However if they are incorrect, the losing team has an opportunity to steal the money with the correct answer.
