MTV’s 10 Most Underrated Series Ever

From:  The Backlot

Idiot Savants

My all-time straight comedian crush Greg Fitzsimmons, hosted this amazing game show starring contestants who specialized in particular pop culture topics. Players with the most points at the end of an irreverent front game were treated to a bonus round consisting of only questions concerning their expert topic. Such a short-lived, yet excellently written, hilarious hosted series. I have fond memories of contestants who knew everything about My So-Called Life, Madonna, the films of Woody Allen, and the movie Fletch. Fun-ish fact: Time columnist Joel Stein appeared on the show as a Taxi expert.
