The teams are made up of two members each, and they must complete various tasks in order to create the best viral video. The challenges range from creating a 30-second dance video to filming a prank on the streets of New York City. The winning team is determined by a panel of judges who evaluate the videos based on criteria such as creativity, humor, and viral potential.

Throughout each episode, viewers are encouraged to vote for their favorite video using social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.

The hosts and judges frequently make jokes at the expense of the contestants and each other, creating a fun and playful atmosphere. However, the show also highlights the hard work and creativity that goes into making a successful viral video.
