The Button is a British game show produced by Avalon Television.

It aired on BBC One and features teams of families who participate in challenges at random intervals throughout the day for cash prizes.

[7][8] In August 2017, producers were looking for contestants to take part in the programme.

When the Button turns from green to red the contestants have to hit it to be set a challenge.

The challenges vary greatly, some examples include: The List gave the game show 3/5,[11] The Custard TV said that "the game show borrows heavily from Gogglebox",[12] The Guardian gave the game show 2/5,[5] and Radio Times said that "[v]iewers had provoked a strong reaction, with many taking to social media to express feelings of deep hatred or love for the series opener".
