The Moment of Truth
From TeeVeePedia, the Internet TV Encyclopedia.
The Moment of Truth is a popular game show currently broadcast by Fox. In one of the network's many innovations, The Moment of Truth stars a lie detector as its main host. The detector asks embarrassing questions to a contestant, who is required to answer in the most devastatingly hurtful way possible. Any deviation from the script or sign of mercy from the contestant brings forth the wrath of the lie detector and the loss of any prize money.
