3 | A [[Creator/TheCW CW]] GameShow that tried to be a modernized take on musical chairs. Contestants traversed a ring of obstacles around a pool while The F.O.S. Band (or in the third round, a guest musician) played, earning cash for each obstacle they get past. |

5 | When the music stopped, the contestants dropped everything and began racing over one of three bridge obstacles to reach the chairs on a platform in the middle. The contestant left without a chair is eliminated. Each chair is also a MysteryBox with various cash values attached to them: whoever banks the least amount of money in the round is also eliminated. The last contestant standing-er, sitting-in the end wins. |

16 | * CatchPhrase: |
17 | ** "Stand by for music!" |
18 | ** "Sit happens..." |
19 | ** "Don't push from the back when you're on the track." |
20 | ** "Take a swim!" (Especially in the 2012 episodes.) |
21 | * CommercialBreakCliffhanger: Going into the eliminations leading into the final round. But at least they were honest about going to break. |
22 | * DeadpanSnarker: Everyone, especially Jamie Kennedy. |
23 | * IntentionallyAwkwardTitle: Given its title, the show's main schtick appeared to be how many "sit"/"shit"-related double entendres they could get past the censors (with the aforementioned "Sit happens" catch phrase, calling the leaderboard the "Sit List", etc.) |
