SRF launches "Less is more" quiz show
Starting in August 2012, SF 1 will air the new game show «Less Is More.» In this early-evening show, three pairs of contestants compete against each other. They must figure out which answer 100 people gave least often in response to a question.
The aim of "Less is more" is to score as few points as possible, as SRF reported in a press release on Wednesday. In the run-up to the show, 100 people were asked questions such as: "Name a former Federal Councillor". 79 people answered with "Adolf Ogi", two people named "Josef Munzinger". The team that finds out which answer was named the least wins the round and a sum of money. According to the announcement, the game has been running very successfully on BBC 1 for some time.
"Less is more" is produced by B&B Endemol and will start in August 2012 in the slot of "5 against 5". The 6.15 p.m. slot on SF 1 will be filled variably. The aim is to present exciting program formats to the television audience on an alternating basis. Head of Entertainment Christoph Gebel: "'Less is more' is a fresh quiz in a proven slot for games. This is in line with SRF's strategy of increasing variety and trying out new program formats."
The host of the show "Less is more" will be announced at a later date. Candidate couples for "Less is more" can register now at broadcasts.sf.tv/less-is-more/news/overview.
