Here's A First Look At Fox's Crazy New Greg Gutfeld Game Show
Imagine if you could go back in time just a few months to a world before the crazy train that is the second Trump Administration left the station. After 100 days of Trump's ICE deportations, talk of taking over Canada and Greenland, and tariffs thrown on friend and foe nations alike--even an island of penguins--would anyone living in the world before January 20 believe what's been in the news? That's the premise of the new game show, Greg Gutfeld's What Did I Miss?, which debuts today on the Fox Nation streaming service. The show's four contestants, hoping to win a grand prize of $50,000, agreed to be isolated in a house in upstate New York from Trump's inauguration on January 20 through April 13, with no access to the internet, phones, TV or social media. 'Truth can be stranger than fiction and who better to help isolated Americans catch up on the headlines they missed during an unprecedented news cycle than Greg Gutfeld, said Fox Nation President Lauren Petterson. "We are excited for Fox Nation subscribers to have exclusive access to America's most-watched late night host's game show debut as he informs contestants about what really happened while they were completely off the grid and isolated from the outside world.' When Gutfeld signed a new deal with Fox a year ago, he talked about the freedom he'd been given to experiment, leading to his late night show outperforming long-running broadcast late night franchises like The Tonight Show and CBS' Late Night. "Since joining the network in 2007, Fox News has given me the freedom to be unabashedly myself and, in turn, deliver a distinct experience for our audience,' Gutfeld said last April. 'There aren't many platforms that allow this type of creative independence and I'm proud to be a part of Suzanne's team,' he said, referring to Fox News Media chief executive Suzanne Scott. The new game show builds on that creative independence, featuring segments shot during isolation, as the contestants wondered what was happening in the world, and the game show portion, when they have to guess which headlines are real, and which are 'fake news.' Good luck. The show puts the contestants on stage in front of a live audience and Gutfeld! regulars Kat Timpf and Jamie Lissow, who milk the humor out of teasing the four about what's happened while they were hunkered down, cut off from the news. 'For these four contestants to learn what really happened while they were living in isolation, they'll have to get through me first," Gutfeld said. "Lucky them.' The first of three episodes drops today, followed by episodes two and three dropping May 13 and 14th. Fox Nation, which debuted in 2018, was recently named one of the 10 fastest-growing brands among Gen Z adults, who may very well soak up this weird mix of reality TV and news--or a mashup perhaps of Gutfeld! and Big Brother. The game show comes as one more gig for a very busy man. In addition to hosting late night's Gutfeld!, which had its highest-rated quarter in the show's four-year history (with an average total audience of 3.3 million viewers, outpacing just about every show in late night, including CBS' The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live!, NBC's The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and Late Night with Seth Meyers, CBS' After Midnight and Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart), Gutfeld also sits at the table five days a week on The Five. The Five remains the highest-rated show in cable news, with a total audience in the first quarter of 2025 of 4.6 million viewers, a massive achievement for a show that airs outside of prime time, when viewership is typically the highest. The Five has held on to the top spot for 14 consecutive quarters.
