A local version of UK quiz show \u2018Pointless\u2019 will reportedly replace Family Feud on Channel 10 after Family Feud was axed<\/a>.<\/h3>\n

The show will be produced by the same company behind MasterChef and The Bachelor, reports smh.com.au<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So how does it work? According to the paper:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe program, which airs on the BBC, features two teams competing for a cash prize. The objective is to give answers to general knowledge questions that are not only correct, but as obscure as possible.<\/h3>\n

\u201cTo determine what is and isn’t a common answer, all of the show’s questions are first tested via a survey involving 100 people. If the team gives an answer that is correct, they win points equal to the number of people who gave the same response.<\/h3>\n

\u201cIncorrect answers incur the maximum 100 points. An answer that is correct but which no one in the pre-game survey put forward receives zero points. This is because the aim of the game is to receive as little points as possible.\u201d<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
