BIG FAN

ABC, 10:01 p.m. ET

 

SERIES PREMIERE: We already have one TV game-show series based on a late-night TV segment: Spike TV’s Lip Sync Battle, which originated on NBC’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Now we have another, courtesy of Jimmy Kimmel Live. The ABC host has authorized and overseen this spinoff of his “Who Knows?” segments, in which celebrities are pitted against fans to see who knows more about that celebrity’s work, and other things. For this new ABC version, Conan TBS sidekick Andy Richter hosts – and the opening-night guest is Matthew McConaughey. Coming up in the next three episodes: Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers, professional celebrity Kim Kardashian West, and Frozen and The Good Place co-star Kristen Bell.
