What If Late Night Shows Just...Don't Bring Back Live Studio Audiences?
Full Frontal with Samantha Bee on TBS is gearing up for the 2020 election primaries with a new mobile game that will allow voters to actually decide which candidate moves on to the next round.
The late night host announced on Saturday in a totally Steve Jobs-esque manner that her show is getting back into the mobile political game business with the “Full Frontal’$ Totally Unrigged Primary” app, which of course follows last year’s “This Is Not A Game: The Game.”
During her unveiling, Bee added that this is the “only comedy-based, election-related game on the market.” The mobile app will allow players to “join their favorite candidate’s team, and complete fun and funny daily challenges to earn the candidates points,” along with encouraging players to donate to the game’s PAC-controlled fund, which she calls Sam Bee’s Political Swear Jar.
“Does making a second game make me a game…mogul?” asked Bee. “Probably. But hey, if anyone can run for president, surely I can become the Bill Gates of Games.”
The game will launch later this fall but will only be available until the week before the Iowa Caucus, taking place on Monday, February 3, 2020. At that time, the show will donate all of the funds to the candidate with the most points.
You can watch the unveiling of the game above and catch new episodes of Full Frontal with Samantha Bee on Wednesdays at 10:30 PM on TBS.
