Warning: Watching this show may make your brain explode. Hold on to the couch while you watch kids compete in quick-moving, mind-bending challenges. Host, Jeff Sutphen, guides the competitors through three levels of challenges. One wrong answer could mean a trip down the Brain Drain. Or a Face Wall suck. Kids who are eliminated do not leave empty-handed, but the winner gets the ultimate prize...a gigantic, messy, victory Sliming!
