** Other examples are the result of the same FromTheMouthsOfBabes formula used by ''KidsSayTheDarndestThings''. For example, when a little boy was asked what his mother said that he does not like, he responded that she says his dad is a real sex machine.

* XMeetsY: ''Series/CandidCamera'' meets ''Series/BeatTheClock''.

* {{Zonk}}: Some doors in the Wall O' Stuff contained cards that would send them to a pie contraption.

* CringeComedy: Major premise, and especially notable when the producers messed with Marc (who has OCD).

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: A regular occurrence, most notably on the country western episode when they had a mother and son sing a DoubleEntendre filled song about wanting her pie. Even ignoring the fact that pie is a common slang term for female genitalia, several of the lines scream DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything, like when she asked him to provide filling for her crust, or when the song ended with the son giving his mom a face full of white cream. The producers were clearly aware of the IncestSubtext involved, as demonstrated by an [[LampshadeHanging audience reaction shot]].

* PrecisionFStrike: According to TheOtherWiki, Marc actually swore on the show once (it was bleeped). As a result, he was sent to the Pie Pod.

Not to be confused with the ABC show ''Series/WhatWouldYouDo''

''What Would You Do?'' was a children's game show hosted by Marc Summers that aired on {{Nickelodeon}}. The premise was similar to ''Series/CandidCamera'', as Marc would tape people in unusual situations and ask the audience (set around Universal Studios Florida, the network's original home in the 90s), "[[TitleDrop What would you do?]]" before the outcome was shown. Other aspects of the show involved members of the StudioAudience and Marc getting messy from some sort of contraptions, most of which involved [[PieInTheFace pies]].

* RecycledSoundtack: The show borrowed most of its musical cues from a show already airing on Nick at the time, ''Series/WildAndCrazyKids''. Both were produced by Woody Fraser and featured music by Alan Ett.

* {{Crossover}}: With ''[[DoubleDare1986 Double Dare]]'', ''Series/LegendsOfTheHiddenTemple'' and ''Series/NickArcade'' called "Nickelodeon All-Star Challenge" that aired during The Big Help in 1994.

* [[IronyAsSheIsCast Irony as He Is Cast]][=/=]TerrifiedOfGerms: Marc, of course, which is interesting, considering the [[DoubleDare1986 other Nick game show he hosted]].

The show went through a slight ReTool between seasons
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zbg3cVJFQN4&feature=relmfu In the in first season episodes]] more emphases was placed on skits and stunts that did not have a messy outcome. The only pie device that was regularly used was the pie pod and it was not even in every episode. Finally the show ended with the What Would You Do medley ware they would make people perform gross stunts that were on cards taped to their heads or go to the pie pod
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MF5cMga9MQ In second season episodes]] more emphases was placed on games and getting people messy,. There new pie devices like the Pie Wash to get people messy. Finally the show ended with the wall-o-stuff ware people would open panels what would either give theme a cheap gift, a card to go to a pie device, or a direct messy consequence like a pie or whip cream being shot in there face.

* ButtMonkey: Marc

* CatchPhrase: What Would You Do?.... not used as often as one would think

* {{Crossover}}: With DoubleDare1986, ''LegendsOfTheHiddenTemple'' and ''NickArcade'' called "Nickelodeon All-Star Challenge" that aired during The Big Help in 1994.

* {{Fanservice}}: A woman once went to the pie pod in a sports bra. (They did not undress her, she came to the show that way for some reason)
* ForegoneConclusion: Two contestants, one game, someone's going to be covered in whipped cream very soon. Even though they did subvert this for a while in the second season by offering the winner a token to the wall of stuff or a pie device for their opponent and people kept taking the tokens. They soon wised up and began offering the winner a chance to either send their opponent to the pie device or go themselves and several of them decided they wanted to get messy.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: the show had quite a bit of it however the best was probably on the country western episode when they had a mother and son sing a DoubleEntendre filled song about wanting her pie. Even ignoring the fact that pie is a conmen slang term for female genitalia (and by extension sex) several of the lines scream DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything, like when she asked him to provide filling for her crust. Since the song was song by a mother and son the IncestSubtext can not be understated and they even showed an audience reaction shot as if to say yes we went there. The fact the song ended with the son giving his mom a face full of white cream probably did not help.
** Other examples are the result of the same FromTheMouthsOfBabes formula used by KidsSayTheDarndestThings like when a little boy was asked what his mother said that he douse not like he responded that she says his dad is a real sex machine.
** Marc himself would occasionally sneak a few in since it was am unscripted show like asking a man if he had ever been this turned on in his life during an electrical demonstration or saying that he had a joke that he wanted to say but it would take them off the air after he discovered that two teenagers he had randomly selected from the audience to [[KissingCousins kiss were cousins]], and the boy said [[DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale the girl would sock him]] which Marc misheard

* SpecialGuest: David Cassidy, The Amazing Kreskin
* TitleDrop: In every episode. It makes sense given the shows premise.
* TitleThemeTune: The entire theme song consisted of the words What Would You Do?
* XMeetsY: ''CandidCamera'' meets BeatTheClock.
