Each week the two take on a "viewer" question in a short clip. In the beginning, Raskin wrote the questions but since the show's popularity increased, some actual audience-submitted questions have been used. The two leads play exaggerated versions of themselves -- Raskin as a perky [[ThePollyanna Pollyanna]] and Dunn as a bisexual EthicalSlut, and they answer the question while occasionally pretending to break character, bicker and make up, or wander off onto tangents.
