Next to Gordon Ramsay, it seems clear that Joel McHale has become the go-to guy for FOX. Between starring on Animal Control, hosting this game show and Crime Scene Kitchen, and his guest appearances on the network’s animated comedies, he’s become a very familiar persona on FOX. Will his being the host of The 1% Club have any influence on whether the series is cancelled or renewed for season four? Stay tuned.
A humorous game show, The 1% Club TV series is hosted by McHale. The competition tests the nation’s intelligence based on a scientific survey. It’s not about what you learned at school or your ability to memorize facts. In each episode, 100 contestants from across the country compete for the chance to win up to $100,000. Throughout the game, the host asks a series of increasingly difficult, logic-based questions. This game does not test intelligence; instead, it inquires about how your brain works through 15 entertaining questions, starting with the 90% question and ending with the toughest test of the night, the 1% question. A person who can answer the question that only 1% of Americans got right can win the grand prize.

Note: These are the final national ratings, including all live+same day viewing and DVR playback (through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
