SyFy is looking to bring back game shows to its lineup with the network's recent acquisition of Geeks Who Drink. Zachary Levi (Chuck, Less Than Perfect) will host and executive produce the series through his production company, The Nerd Machine. Geeks Who Drink is based on the nationwide pub trivia phenomenon and will have two teams comprised of three "trivia geeks" and a celebrity captain answering a series of questions in varying categories from sci-fi to pop culture. The series will also be produced by Kinetic Contact and Conde Nast Entertainment. Stay tuned for the series premiere of Geeks Who Drink July 16 on SyFy. I hope the show will be just as successful as Total Blackout and not become an afterthought like Exit.
UPDATE: The show premieres July 16 at 11:30pm ET.
