Game show with humorous topics(usualy puns). In each game up to $5000 US is up for grabs with the remaining prize budget at the end of the season going to the host Ben Stein. In the first round three people select from five catagories, each with one randomly valued ($50-$150 I belive) question. If it is answered correctly the answerer is given first crack at a related bonus question worth $50. In the second round the low scorer is removed and replaced by Ben Stein, and their winnings are returned to the main prize. Ben does not gain any money if he answers correctly but the other players do not get the question (which is now worth $100-$500); there are no bonus questions. In the third round the low scorer from round two is removed and stripped of their winnings while the high scorer is pitted against Ben in "The Best of Ten Test of Knowledge"; each is asked the same ten questions and if the player beats Ben they get all $5000 while if they lose they only get their score. A tie in the best of ten results in a $1000 bonus.
