NBC & PAX Primetime Game Show
Host:
Anne Robinson
Announcer:
John Cramer
Eight contestants battle each other, the clock and
host, Anne Robinson, in a trivia contest to see who is the
"Strongest Link." The contestants play as a team in seven
rounds of rapid-fire questions. Every time you get a question
right, more money is added to the pot. Every time you get
a question wrong, the pot goes down to zero. Smart players
apply the strategy of BANKING to win as much prize
money as possible. However, only one contestant
will walk away with that money.
Each round ends with the tyranny of the majority -- a vote to
jettison the "Weakest Link" among them out of the game. Each
player who is voted out of the game leaves with NOTHING!
In the Final Round the two players left standing battle it
out head-to-head in a best of five shootout until one
person wins. The other leaves with nothing.

On this half-hour version, six contestants compete,
with rounds decreasing by 15 seconds each (from 1:45 for
the first round to a scant 45 seconds for the double-stakes
final round). The maximum pot available is $75,000, with
each round having a $12,500 target. At show's end, it's
a best-of-three faceoff to determine who wins the
jackpot - and who goes away with nothing.
