 Um, Actually is a Panel Game Show, on the comedy streaming service Dropout (formerly College Humor), where in contestants have to identify the mistakes in statements on popular media (things like Star Wars, Dungeons and Dragons, Lord of the Rings etc), prefaced with the phrase "Um, Actually" in order to win points. Obviously in a game that involves nerdy trivia, answers can get very pedantic and involve obscure deep cuts, thankfully a fact checker is always on hand to ensure that any answer given is accurate.The series began as a web-series on College Humor's YouTube channel, title Um, Actually: The Game Show Where Nerds Correct Nerds, and is the oldest currently ongoing program on Dropout. For most of the series run, the host has been former College Humor head writer Mike Trapp, until Season Nine, when he was replaced by long time guest Ify Nwadiwe. Starting in Season Four, Michael Saltzman took on the role of onscreen fact checker, but also stepped down in Season Nine to be replaced by Brian David Gilbert. Contestants are usually drawn from the usual suspects of College Humor alumni and Dropout regulars and the wider community of geeky comedians and celebrities.The format of the show consists of ten questions interspersed with three so-called "shiny questions" that are different, but worth exactly the same as the regular questions. The final question is always about a real life skill or piece of trivia such as ranging from how best to clean your windows to the responsibilities of the Secretary of the Interior. Um, Actually the show has the following tropes.
