What’s the Story?
Hosted by Summer Sanders, Nickelodeon's off-the-wall kids' game show follows a "20 questions"-style format: A panel of four Nickelodeon stars (ranging the gamut from
Amanda Bynes to
Home Improvement's Taran Noah Smith) asks yes-or-no questions in hopes of guessing the talent or notable feature of a kid contestant. Those talents and features, of course, are chosen for their strangeness -- like the kid who has such a long "tail" in his hair that it hits the ground or the one who can milk a goat with his feet. Crazy? Yes, but it's a lot of fun to watch.
Is It Any Good?
Like most game shows in the Nickelodeon family,
Figure It Out is messy, slimy, and completely zany. Don't expect any educational content -- although the show does inspire kids to think outside of the box and use their imagination. The talents of the kid "specialists" may lean toward being gross and weird, but that's what helped make Nickelodeon the success it is today.
