Get Back at 'Em

Get Back at 'Em is a Kuboian children’s game show created by Rodrick Miles and produced by Enterlight. The show takes inspiration from Get Your Own Back, and features children bringing in an older family member (or their teacher) in hope to humiliate them on national television. The show was hosted by Ericka Streets, with certain episodes being co-hosted by Blade Holter or Spy Fandel.

Premise
Get Back at 'Em features three groups of an adult and a child. The whole point of the show is for the children to try and get revenge on their older rival, which is usually something trivial such as always singing badly, or making them tidy their rooms all the time.

It should be noted that each series has a significantly different format.

Pilot
Please note that this format was only used once.

The pilot featured four teams - red, blue, green and yellow.

The first game featured on the show, Gunge Matrix featured gunge. This featured the four child contestants running through a playarea-esque maze. There were twelve coloured buttons located in the maze, three coloured after each team. The child’s goal was to press all three of the buttons that matched their team’s colour. Whilst this was going on, the four adult contestants were seen sitting in tubes. The child who pressed all three of their buttons first got to gunge their respective adult.

The next part of the show featured The Mixer, which mixed the teams up, causing a certain child contestant and adult contestant to be paired and work together in a game. For the team who won that game, the child contestant would bring their parent through to the final game, whilst that adult contestant would be “freed”. Afterwards, the two remaining teams would be rearranged, with the two remaining children being paired with the adult of the opposite team. After a second game, the two teams remaining moved to the final round.

The final game played in the pilot was The Humilator. The two children left in the game were asked general knowledge questions. Streets read the question out loud, and whichever child buzzed in first got to answer the question. If the child got the question right, they were allowed to push a button which released something such as spiderwebs onto their respective adult, but if they got the question wrong, it would get released onto them.

Once a child gets four correct answers, Streets revealed to them a golden button. Once the child pressed the golden button, gunge was released onto their respective grownup, from multiple angles! This is when Streets tells the child that they finally ”Got back at 'em!”
