Go-Big Show
Go-Big Show is an American talent show television series that premiered on TBS on January 7, 2021. In contrast to other talent shows, Go-Big Show focuses on talents on a bigger scale, e.g., featuring monster trucks, horse riding, and large scale stage acts.[1][2] On each episode, performers compete for an opportunity to advance toward the season finale, with a grand prize of $100,000 at stake.

Season one (2021)
On each of the six qualifier episodes, three pairs of acts perform for the judges. Each act is scored on a scale of 0 to 100; the higher-scoring act of the pair advances to the semifinals. If both acts in a match-up receive the same score, a coin toss is used to decide the winner.
