Piment Fort

Piment Fort was a popular Quebec humoristic game show hosted by Normand Brathwaite which aired on TVA from 1993 to 2001.

A revival of the show has been announced as part of TVA's 2016 Winter TV season.

The show's concept was to invite three humorists a week and to make them participate in a variety of games which led them to crack jokes and tell funny stories.

The show was recorded in front of a live audience (18 years and older, because there were alcoholic drinks served) in Montreal's Café Campus located on 57 Prince-Arthur East.

After each game, the audience was asked to vote for the player who made the best joke or story.

The host asks the meaning of a real abbreviation or acronym, but each player has his/her own interpretation.

The host gives a fictitious scenario: a famous person has gone to a selected place.

A guest star invited to the show is hidden behind a big board.

A guest star invited to the show is hidden in a hot pepper costume.

The players have to ask questions to the hidden guest in order to discover his/her identity.

The host asks the players to tell what they think is the biggest secret kept by a famous person.
