I am a sadist who loves to drink hot sauce. Therefore, Hot Ones: The Game Show is like porn to me. Find out why it has me so excited tonight and every Tuesday at 10p on TruTV. I am pretty sure you have seen Sean Evans’ webseries Hot Ones, well the game show is loosely based on it.
Before the first question is even asked, the two teams that consist of two people, have to eat a very hot wing. Then they proceed to answer three questions without anything to numb their mouths. On tonight’s series premiere, one guy throws up before the commercial break. Will he be able to continue on? There are medical advisors on the show to determine if he can.
The second round is a repeat of the first round, but with a hotter wing. As the sweat pours out of their pores, they have to ask themselves is it worth it to go to the third round. For that round, they do not have to eat a wing before it starts. Instead, they have to take a big bite of a very hot wing if they get the answer correct. The team with the higher score goes on to the Ring of Fire.
That is when they have to do a shot of extremely hot sauce that turns your a$$ into a fire-breathing dragon. Since breathing out of their mouths in nearly impossible because of the pain. It does not help their lips and tongues that they are going to have to scream to their teammates through a huge ring of fire to win the grand prize. If they win this round, then they win $25,000 and as much milk they want. I hope they are not lactose intolerant because man it is going to burn coming out in so many ways.
It is rare I say I want to be on a game show, but this one is calling my name. I just want to try the sauces. I am up to tolerating Haberno without a problem, so I want to see how painful it is.
That and this show is a lot of fun to watch. You get to see the contestants are in so much physical pain. Is it wrong to enjoy that? I don’t care. What I care about is how much I love this game show.
Paul Rudd was on Hot Ones and he took some spicy hot pornographic photos of Sean Evans. But there is a catch. Even though it looked like a naked man or woman was posing with the host, they were not. Instead, it was a trick he does with his fingers. Pretty cool like him!
Going from cool to hot, for the final wing, he did something they have not done before. They did a dab of all of the hot sauces on one wing. How did they do? They were in tears. Especially after Rudd convinced Evans to dip a finger in the leftover sauce and high-1 each other. Then when they were done, the Clueless actor made the biggest mistake, he touched his eyes. Burn baby burn, Disco inferno going on in his eyes. Worse than the pain he felt a few hours later. Burns going in, scorches going out.
I have to admit I have a greater respect for Ant-Man because it takes a big man to do all of those sauces at one. Talking about the sauces, did you know they sell them at Heatonist? I don’t know which one to try first!

Either Jimmy Fallon is a sadist or his staff is masochists. I say that because they brought back Sean Evans and his Hot Wings. The first time things did not go so smoothly for The Tonight Show host and this time, it went even worse.
At first, he and Priyanka Chopra were able to handle the heat, but then they could not stand being in Hell’s Kitchen. Actually, they could not sit and they could only stand because they were in so much pain.
They were dancing like they were at a Disco in the ’70s. Which gets us in the mood for the final question. That is when Evans asked Fallon to do a singing impression. Who did he choose? He went with the Bee Gees’ Stayin’ Alive and his notes might have been even higher the band’s vocals. Who knew that was possible. I guess if you eat a pepper that is more than 400 times hotter than a Jalapeno, you can hit those notes that only dogs can hear.
Have you ever seen Hot Ones on YouTube? Sean Evans interviews celebrities as they eat wings with hot sauce. With each question, the peppers get hotter and hotter. At first, they are bearable, but by the end they have tears coming from their eyes, sweat pouring out of every pore and their faces are hotter than the sauce they just inhaled. Why? Who cares, sadists like me love it.
Since I cannot sit through anything that is over 10 minutes long, I skip to the good part. The end when they have reached the hottest bottle. Yesterday, Evans brought his show to The Tonight Show, and his guests were Jimmy Fallon and Selena Gomez.
As we know the NBC late night host cannot handle any pain, he was crying after the second wing. By the time he got to the end, he was dancing like a potty trained toddler who really has to go #2 but cannot to do it in their new underwear because mommy and daddy will yell at them. Gomez did a little better, but not by much.
As we know Kevin Hart is not the bravest of men. About two years ago he went on First We Feast and suffered greatly for it. Now that he has another movie coming out, he was invited back for another go at it. This time, he and Tiffany Haddish, his Night School co-star, took part in Truth or Dab.
Basically, it is like Truth or Dare, but instead, they have to eat a very hot wing if they opt not to answer the question or get it wrong.
They each took turns and it started off easy, but you knew that was not going to last. The second question they asked Kevin, “Are you a card-carrying member of the eat a booty gang?” He debated how to answer and finally decided to eat the wing instead of admitting whether or not he eats a$$. He screamed in pain and I laughed so hard that I was in pain.
Then it got worse for him when he was asked to answer a math problem that he got wrong. That meant he had to eat even a hotter wing and I got a heartier laugh. Both of us were crying but for different reasons.
When it comes to Haddish, she showed him who is spicier by handling it better than him. Did expect any less from her? And I expect a lot of laughs from their movie Night School that comes out on Friday.
Oh and before I forget, I felt his pain every time he burped. Anyone who eats hot sauce all the time knows the heat, repeats. Haha!!! That and if it burns going in, it burns going out.
