Wait for It..!: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Wait for It..! is the only show on television where being quick to answer doesn't make you a winner. In fact, the contestants do their best to wait as long as possible to answer the questions because, in this game, the longer you wait, the more points you get.

Four contestants are transported onto the Intergalactic Time Capsule and over four rounds do their best to avoid being dropped into the "goo portal" - a large tank of sticky orange gunge!
