Created and hosted by McIntyre, each hourlong episode follows six celebrity guests spinning, advising and supporting charismatic contestants as they endeavor to be the last one standing. As the contestants vie for the chance to win over $100,000, the celebrities lend their expertise in a variety of hilarious and outrageous categories from candy and comedians to poker and politics.

Sean Patton: Number One

Peacock announced Sean Patton: Number One, a stand-up comedy event, at New Orleans legendary Tipitina's, that takes audiences on a deep dive into the personal experiences that made Sean who he is today. The 90-minute special explores everything from his obsessive-compulsive disorder to his madhouse of an upbringing and the broken, yet unbreakable bonds of his family. Patton, born in New Orleans and based in Brooklyn, offers a hilarious and heart wrenching tapestry of his ridiculous, yet human psyche. Sean Patton: Number One serves as a reminder to viewers that there is beauty in human flaws and that laughter is the Number One way to persevere and accept the shortcomings that define who we are.
