An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

The Panel Show format has been around for a long time - it's cheap to make and easy to film. But when it's aimed towards being funny or entertaining, the points cease to matter. What may have started as a quite a serious point system falls to the wayside, or maybe They Just Didn't Care about points in the first place but liked the format. Add to this gracious editing which removes answers to questions or entire questions, and the viewer will have a hard time figuring out how that team is winning when they haven't answered a single question yet. Akin to Scoring Points in video games. Examples:

Sure, the person/team may still "win", but they don't get anything for it, and we have no idea how they did it. Regardless, points seem to matter less the longer a series goes on. When the points don't matter due to the last challenge determining everything, it's a Golden Snitch. Akin to Scoring Points in video games. Examples:
