That **** Quiz Show (or That Awful! Quiz Show) was a short-lived quiz show that featured five teams of two players with unusual jobs or backgrounds.

Premise[]

Each team started with $500 and could wager between $50 and $200 on their ability to answer multiple-choice trivia questions after being told the category. The teams played separately and were asked four questions, each of which must be answered within eight seconds. The team with the most money played a bonus question submitted by a home viewer for $1,000 and a bonus prize.
