Data-Byters (1996 U.S. remake)

The 1996 U.S. remake of Data-Byters is Brillstein-Grey's attempt to bring the El Kadsreian game show Data-Byters to the North American market. It was intended for ABC, but it was passed on in favor of more comedy efforts, and ultimately The Naked Truth and The Jeff Foxworthy Show were moved to NBC.

It was hosted by and announced by Jim Fagan.
