20Q™ Game Show launches June 13, 2009

OTTAWA, CANADA, June 11, 2009—The world’s wittiest A.I. has guessed its way to its own prime time television game show. Starting June 13, 2009, GSN’s Big Saturday Night lineup kicks-off with 20Q™, the game show that pits players against the mind reading super-computer.

“Mr. Q”, powered by the 20Q A.I. and voiced by comedian Hal Sparks, co-hosts alongside real-time host Cat Deeley (So You Think You Can Dance).

In the game show 20Q™, contestants go head-to-head while they attempt to guess a mystery word through a series of clues. The winner of that round must then try to outwit the cunning Mr. Q in a classic game of twenty questions for a cash prize of $20,000. Viewers at home will find themselves in the heat of battle when they shout out answers as the game unfolds.

20Q™ airs at 8 p.m. ET on GSN beginning Saturday, June 13, 2009, for the summer season.
