99 to Beat is an American game show based on the Belgian game show of the same name that premiered on Fox on September 21, 2025. The series is hosted by Ken Jeong and Erin Andrews. The winner of Season 1, Peter Nevins, was crowned after 50 games.

Format

100 contestants compete in physical and unique challenges where the goal is not to finish first, nor to perform the best, but to not finish last. After each challenge, the player who came in last will be eliminated, which will add $10,000 to the pot. The last person standing (after a total of 50 games and 10 episodes, besides the season finale) will walk away with $1,000,000. Each episode has 4 solo games and one team game. In the event of a team game, the team who fails to win any heat or round or comes last will all be eliminated. Some team games feature team captains, which are decided randomly, and have teams drafted via a schoolyard pick. Other games feature multiple heats, with players or teams who come last in each heat put into the elimination heat. Finally, pair games have the pair who comes in last face off against each other (in the event of a team game, the losing team will be split in half until the required number of contestants to be eliminated is reached).
