Name that Video
VH1, March 12, 2001-present
Personnel:
Host: Karyn Bryant
PREMISE: Three contestants try to win a new car by answering questions about VH1's videos, and then to name ten of them in the Championship Round.
The first round pits the days' contestants against three categories:
Finish the Phrase: A video is shown, and stopped. The player must sing the appropriate lyrics.
Liner Notes: A 'catch-all trivia' category about the band in play.
Rock Rhymes: The lyrics shown rhyme with the actual ones, and players must fix the lyrics.
Spoken Word: The announcer speaks a few lines from a song, and the players must identify it.
(Misheard Lyrics): Not sure of the actual title, but the lyrics are garbled, and the players have three choices to guess the right line.
Questions are worth 100 points each, with five to a category. Each category has a specific artist, that changes after a question is played. After ten minutes, the two players with the most points move on to Bid-a-Vid.
In Bid-a-Vid, the leader of round one is given a list of seven clues to the artists, and chooses one. Karyn then reads a clue to the video. The contestants bid back-and-forth as to how little time they need to identify the video. Maximum bid is seven seconds, minimum bid is one. The contestant watches the video clip, and must identify the song and artist for a point, otherwise the opponent gets it. If missing it would give the opponent the win, he or she gets to look at seven seconds, and guess. First to three points wins and goes for the car.
Championship Round (Get ten of these, you get the keys...): The contestant has 60 seconds to name ten videos for the car. Right answers win $500 each, and wrong guesses don't end the game. Players may pass and come back after looking at all ten videos.
