Discovery Channel has announced a Chicago spinoff of "Cash Cab," starring Second City alum and comedian Beth Melewski stepping behind the steering wheel as host. In "Cash Cab," unsuspecting riders
picked up on city streets become on-air contestants inside the cab/mobile set. Quizzed on immersive, general knowledge questions all the way to their destination, the questions get harder and the
stakes get higher as the meter ticks away. Miss three questions and contestants are kicked to the curb.
