Grown-ups can lie but children always seem to figure out the truth! The all-new game show on Disney+ will see kid contestants challenging subject matter experts and the host on mainstream topics as they present fun facts and convincing lies about the same, side by side. Will kids be able to find out the fibs which sound like truth?

Release date

‘The Big Fib’ is all set to premiere on Disney+ on May 22, 2020 and is scheduled to have 30 episodes of half an hour each.

Format

The game is all about identifying which of the two hosts is lying on a popular topic. In each half-hour episode, the host and “an expert” will share interesting facts and lies on a particular subject. One of the kid contestants on the show will play a warm-up round, followed by the main round where they ask questions to the expert and the liar. It will finally depend on the contestant to identify the liar and the correct answer. The game overall involves visual clues, fascinating props, a hot seat round of rapid-fire questions, and various mainstream topics, including jellyfish, venom, toys, food, killer plants, and much more! At the end of all the rounds, the liar gets foamed by a Fib Foam machine.
