This truly outrageous Japanese–style game show is like Let's Make A Deal meets Double Dare meets Dad's Garage. Improvisers choose from 3 closed doors and must incorporate whatever's lurking behind them in their scene, and the losing team is punished in a number of disturbingly hilarious (and often painful or stinky) ways. With crazy hosts, adorably sassy sailor girls, karaoke breaks, and bizarre stunts – this show is like nothing you've ever seen before.
