''Idiot Savants'' was an American television game show on the MTV network which ran from December 9, 1996 to April 25, 1997. It was created by Michael Dugan and Chris Kreski, directed by Steve Paley, and hosted by comedian Greg Fitzsimmons. The show's title refers to a label historically directed toward autistic people with Savant Syndrome. ==Format== Four contestants competed for five days in a standard question-and-answer game with an "educational" gimmick. Each day played like a standard game show episode with eliminations and a bonus round. However, all four contestants returned to start each new episode, and each contestant's scores from all episodes throughout the week were added together to create a grand total. The contestant who had the highest total after five days of competition won the weekly grand prize, usually a vacation or a car. Each contestant was an expert in a specific topic, his or her "savant category", which ranged from 1980s sitcoms to physics to heavy metal bands. Many of the questions were asked (or performed) by the "savant contestants", a group of actors who acted out comical sketches that led to the questions. Many of these actors were also writers on the show, including senior writer Tom Cohen, along with Jason Nash, Paul Kozlowski, Eric Friedman, and Shonda Farr. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Idiot Savants (game show)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
