Gameplay
A number of contestants, each of whom has a famous relative, move into a secluded house together and are tasked with deducing which celebrities the other contestants are related to while also keeping their own celebrity relationship a secret. Every episode, the contestants participate in a competition, most of which incorporate cryptic clues that the contestants can use in their deductions. The winner is usually granted immunity for the round and a bonus rebus that can be deciphered into a clue about another contestant.At the end of most episodes, the contestants secretly vote between the two lowest-ranked performers in the competition to be the round's "guesser". The guesser then chooses any other non-immune contestant and must announce which celebrity they think this other contestant is related to. If the guesser is correct, the other contestant will be eliminated; if the guesser is wrong, the guesser will be eliminated instead.
The final contestant remaining wins $100,000.
