Now that we've seen the first episode of the game show, we understand that each installment ends with a major twist. Toward the end of the show, the winners are offered the chance to add to their winnings with a bonus prize. And last night's champions—75-year-old Marilyn and her grandson Nolan, 14—decided they wanted something in addition to their $24,250. However, the hitch was that this round was called “Toddler's Choice,” and the youngest member of the family got to decide between two prizes.
In the end, 5-year-old Andrew was swayed to choose a Razor scooter over a Kia Niro LXS car, much to the dismay of his older family members. However, the toddler walked away happily with the new scooter.
According to Deadline, Generation Gap “is a comedy quiz show that groups family members of different generations who must work together to answer questions about each other’s generations. The show will feature pop-culture trivia and challenges such as asking an 8-year-old to finish the famous catchphrase, ‘Go ahead. Make my [BLANK].’”
If the title sounds familiar, it’s probably because Jimmy Kimmel (Jimmy Kimmel Live!) and Mark Burnett (Shark Tank, Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?) have been trying to produce it for three years. (Kimmel even featured a “Generation Gap” segment on his talk show.)
We’ll be keeping our fingers crossed for a Mark Consuelos cameo.
