What happens

"Studio 7" was also the original developmental title for the NBC drama Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Studio 7 is an American game show that premiered on July 22, 2004 on The WB. Studio 7 was hosted by Pat Kiernan. Each episode featured seven contestants, mostly college-age, who lived together in New York City for the four days prior to the taping. During this time, they were given some of the material on which the show would quiz them. The show was promoted as a hybrid of game shows and reality television such as The Real World. The WB originally ordered two seasons of Studio 7, with the second season to air immediately after the first. However, the network cancelled plans for a second season during the initial run, due to low ratings. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
