My Generation was a fun TV show from Australia. It was a trivia game show where teams answered questions. The show aired in 1995 and 1996 on the Nine Network. It was hosted by Jeff Phillips and later by Tony Johnston.

How the Game Was Played

This game show was special because it teamed up different generations. Each team had two members: one kid and one adult. They worked together to win!

The Topic Challenge

The game began with a big board of general topics. Both teams would try to answer a quick question. The team that answered correctly got to pick a topic from the board.

Answering Questions

Once a topic was chosen, the team had 30 seconds. During this time, they had to answer many questions about that topic. They kept going until all the options for that topic were used up.

Video Game Showdown

Next, it was time for some video game action! Both the kid and the adult from each team played a video game. They would switch turns during the game. A popular game they played was Ridge Racer on the PlayStation. This round tested their gaming skills!

The Big Finish

The last round was a fast-paced question challenge. Teams were given 90 seconds. They had to answer as many questions as they could in that time. The team with the most points at the end won the game!
