Ep 1. Pilot

Ellen's Game of Games is an American television game show that aired its first episode on December 18th, 2017, at 10 pm EST on NBC. The show is hosted by Ellen DeGeneres, who is known for her impeccable sense of humor and wit. Ellen's Game of Games is based on the various party games that Ellen plays on her talk show, The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The first episode of Ellen's Game of Games is called the "Pilot." In this episode, Ellen welcomes a group of contestants who are eager to play some of her most popular games. The episode begins with a game called "Blindfolded Musical Chairs," where the contestants must find a seat without being able to see. The catch? The chairs are constantly moving around, and there are fewer seats than there are contestants. The last person standing wins the game and moves on to the next round.

Next up, is a game called "Say What?" where contestants must wear noise-canceling headphones and try to guess what Ellen is saying. Ellen reads out a phrase with a mouth guard, which makes it difficult to decipher what she is saying. The contestants must then guess the phrase. The person with the most correct guesses at the end of the round moves on to the next game.

In the next game, called "Dizzy Dash," contestants must spin around dizzying circles before completing a series of challenges. The challenges include throwing beanbags into a target, solving a puzzle, and knocking down bowling pins with a ball. The first contestant to finish all the challenges wins the game and moves on to the next round.

Lastly, there is a game called "Scary Go Round," where contestants must sit in chairs that are attached to spinning platforms. The platforms spin around while the contestants must answer trivia questions. The catch? If they answer incorrectly, their chair drops quickly, causing a scary falling sensation. The last person remaining in their chair wins the game and moves on to the final game of the episode.

The final game of the episode is called "Know or Go." In this game, contestants must answer trivia questions to move up a series of platforms. Meanwhile, Ellen drops the platforms, leaving contestants who answered incorrectly to plummet several feet into a foam pit. The last person standing, who made it to the top platform, wins the game and a cash prize of $100,000.

Throughout the episode, Ellen injects her signature humor and personality into the games. All of the games are fun to watch and enjoyable to play, making Ellen's Game of Games a highly entertaining show. The contestants are also incredibly diverse, including people of different ages, races, and backgrounds. This diversity helps to showcase the unique and colorful personalities of all the contestants.

Overall, the "Pilot" episode of Ellen's Game of Games is a fun and exciting introduction to the show. Ellen's enthusiasm for the games and her charming demeanor make the experience enjoyable for everyone, whether they are contestants or viewers at home. The show is perfect for anyone who loves game shows and wants to watch some unforgettable and hilarious moments on television.
