In our continuing coverage of countries that have better game shows than us, let us now turn our focus from Japan to France. Yes, France. Check out this French game show, which can only be described as brilliant.
I have no idea what these girls are trying to do, I don’t know what they could possibly win that would restore their dignity, but what I DO know is I want to buy this entire series on DVD.

How does it work: the girl that wins grabs the key to my bedroom!

That’s part of a game called “Fort Boyard” where the poor contestants, usually semi-famous TV or sport celebrities, go through a series of quite difficult physical and mental tests where they can win “keys”.
In the end they turn these keys into money for some charity.
The game was adapted in many countries, including US (but only a pilot), see Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Boyard_(TV_series)
I think I’ve never seen anyone manage to get to the end of that series of cylinders…
Another nice one is the female-only mud fight
