Fox News has introduced a new game show to debut on Fox Nation on Monday. The competition involves four contestants who have been secluded for three months in a house located in Upstate New York.

The contestants on the show, named ‘What Did I Miss?’ were kept in complete isolation, oblivious to the relentless news cycle occurring around them.

The show resembles a Big Brother-style format where participants must unravel the events that transpired during their isolation period, during which they were prohibited from accessing their phones, the internet, television, or any social media platforms.

In a clip obtained by DailyMail.com, competitors are seen attempting to separate real headlines from fake ones.

The central focus of the challenge was a clue revealing the actual market downturn triggered by the Chinese startup DeepSeek shortly after Donald Trump assumed the presidency.

Contestants had missed it due to their January 20 to April 13 internment, paving the way for some interesting reactions.

Helping them along – or at least attempting to – were host Greg Gutfeld and Fox Business’s Stuart Varney. The latter used his savvy to provide a rundown that, much like rest of the show, seemed stranger than fiction.

‘A new Chinese AI tool, DeepSeek, isn’t just powerful, it’s cheap. Like, “free WiFi at a strip mall” cheap,’ Varney – introduced by Gutfeld as ‘the mortgage whisperer’ – begins, seeking to explain the headline behind him.

‘My nerd friends says it works just as well – or better – than America’s ChatGPT.

‘And now, we’re seeing the big China robot brain make all the money go bye-bye very fast, like a *sad emoji*, woosh, boom, the economy dies,’ he went on, mimicking fragmented AI speak.

The contestants appeared increasingly stumped as he spoke, trying to decipher the true meaning – if any – of the longtime finance journalist’s words.

A title-card before them further insisted: ‘Global fears about advancements of cheap Chinese AI is blamed for causing a trillion dollar Wall Street crash.’

As for Gutfeld – the host for the entirety of the three-part reality series – he brought out an AI-powered version of Varney on a screen on-stage, before suggesting the virtual version would be ‘more cooperative.’

‘Greg, my friend – how are you?’ the computer carbon copy asked – leading the host to answer ‘Great’ before asking the same.

‘Righty-o,’ the bot replied – a clear jab at the journalist’s British background.

 ‘AI Stu’, at this point, took over.

‘This wasn’t just a crash. This was Silicon Valley’s full-blown midlife crisis,’ he explained to the contestants, who are joined by a live studio audience and a panel that includes Gutfeld! regulars Kat Timpf and Jamie Lissow. 

‘Market go crashy-chash. Big stocks fall down,’ Varney’s computerized counterpart continued.

‘Wall Street do big oopise. Zuckerberg sweat soy milk. America AI say self-care and wear expensive Patagonia vests – while Chinese AI lifts weights, smokes cigarettes, and sleeps with your algorithm girlfriend.’

As laughs rang out from those in attendance, the real Varney – who had been listening on – expressed complete awe by the computer’s words, which he exasperatedly remarked was ‘nonsense.’

‘I’m out of here,’ he sarcastically said, throwing up his hands in disbelief.

As he left the stage to let the contestants discern whether his story was fictional, his AI spinoff – which seemingly gained its vocabulary from source material sporting broken English – talked up the show’s host one last time.

‘I may be artificial, but even I can calculate that Greg Gutfeld is criminally underpaid, wildly underappreciated, and still somehow overqualified for this circus.

‘These are my kind of colleagues,’ the longtime host of Gutfeld! quipped – leaving the game’s players to come to their own conclusions.

Appropriately dubbed What Did I Miss?, the new show premieres Monday, May 12.

The final two episodes drop right after on May 13 and 14, all on Fox Nation.
