As best I can tell, comedian Fortune Feimster will travel around the world to appear on a different game show in each country.

Wasn't Todd Newton supposed to host a show like this at one point, and they ended up just doing a one-off special?

I do remember that--I do not recall whether it was a special or busted pilot or somewhere in between.
