History

CBS originally ordered a pilot of Game Show in My Head hosted by Chris Kattan, but later decided to re-shoot the pilot with a new host, Joe Rogan.[1] In January 2008, during the 2007-2008 Writers Guild of America strike, CBS ordered an unnamed number of episodes of the series.[2] Game Show In My Head is very similar to the hit website www.modmylife.com. Contestants on Modmylife were called Modstars. Users to the website were allowed to vote on objectives and the winning suggestion was perfomed LIVE on the Streets of New York City using hidden cameras, cell phones and hidden ear pieces. Jason Wilder Evans was the sites most successful performer. www.jasonwilderevans.com

In March 2008, the show began seeking contestants.[3] In December 2008, CBS announced that they would begin airing episodes of the new version of the show on Saturdays, starting January 3rd, 2009.[4] Saturdays are the least-watched night of the week; this move has inspired speculation that the network has a lack of faith in the program.[5]

Gameplay

Game Show in My Head is a hidden-camera show in which contestants must perform "hilarious and embarrassing" tasks in front of strangers,[6] which they are instructed to do by the host via the earpiece.[7]

Each of the tasks is worth $5,000, and contestants can also double their money in a "no-holds-barred bonus round." Therefore, the maximum amount of money that a contestant can earn is $50,000.
