Who comes up with the questions on game shows?

Bob Boden (Vice President of Production, Fox Reality Channel) gives expert video advice on: How important is the set design on game shows?; How has the set design on game shows changed through the years?; Who comes up with the rules on game shows? and more...

Many game shows have writers who prepare the questions. Some of them are called writers, some of them are called segment producers or editorial content providers or whatever title you want to give them. Taking the style of the show into account, this will create material that is relevant to that show. The best questions on the best shows are the one's that have a style relevant and specific to that show. There are elements to a good Jeopardy question or Jeopardy answer that are different than a good Millionaire question or a good Greed question or a good Power of 10 question. There really is a style and a talent to coming up with those questions.
