Remote Control was a game show about television and aired on MTV. Many of the questions revolved around old television shows. Segments include "Sing Along With Colin," where contestants were charged with identifying and/or finishing songs sung by Colin Quinn, "Beat the Clock" where contestants had to correctly answer a question before a costumed character makes it around the studio, and "Penalty" where a contestant must endure a schoolyard type torture. The first round ended with a "Snack Break" where contestants must catch snacks in unusual ways. Contestants who were eliminated went "Off the Air" and faced a humiliating exit.
