Green-lit for 10 episodes and based on the popular app, the show will feature an in-studio contestant having to withstand eight rounds of gameplay against "play-at-home" contestants to win one million dollars (which sounds like the Peacock putting the concepts of "Who's Still Standing" and "Million Second Quiz" into a blender to try and fix the flaws both had) ...

  It looks like QuizUp.judging from the description,  will have elements of Paranoia and Let's Ask America.
