Work from formats rather than favourites: studio quizzes, panel games, physical contests, word puzzles and cash-elimination spectacles have filled schedules in almost every country. Any programme commissioned for television whose core is a game, quiz or contest counts, whatever its country or language; chat shows, dramas and unscripted series with no scoring game do not.

How to approach it

Treat the prompt as a sweep of the schedule rather than a hunt for one correct title. Move decade by decade through what you have actually watched, then broaden to daytime, cable and streaming, and finally to formats imported from other markets whose local names you may only half remember. Give each decade roughly a minute: jotting three or four candidates fast beats agonizing over a single favourite. Once a handful of names survives, drop anything that is a drama, a chat show or an unscripted series with no contest at its centre, then choose the least obvious survivor. Scoring here rewards the title most other players would never reach, so resist the first famous name that arrives and keep digging until a rarer one does.

Get a hint

Cast a wide net across decades: the earliest studio quizzes, the big Saturday-night spectacles and the streaming revivals all sit inside this category.

A little more

Then widen geographically: the same mechanic turns up under local titles in dozens of markets, and imported names deserve the same credit as home-grown ones.

One step further

Finally, push past the obvious prime-time hits towards daytime strips, cable oddities, short-run specials and formats that lasted barely a season.

Why these answers count

The reveal shows how flat the top of this category sits: 5701 answers cleared sixty points, and all but one of them stopped at 85. That plateau is the signature of a question with an enormous pool of acceptable titles, where thousands of entries from dozens of countries are equally unknown to the average player and therefore equally rewarded. Only one pick pushed into triple figures, Dotto at 100, a 1950s studio quiz that survives mainly in television histories. At the other end, a mere 144 answers fell to 60 points, the band reserved for the handful of formats that saturate global memory. Look at what filled the 85-point mass: 100 mexicanos dijeron, 1, 2 oder 3, 100 % logique, 10 Seconds, each a local-language or low-profile variation on a familiar mechanic, famous inside one market and invisible outside it. The lesson is that prestige earns nothing here. A title nobody else in the sample could retrieve pays more than the biggest prime-time franchise, so the winning instinct is to name something real but half-forgotten.
