Canada's Greatest Know-It-All television show is asking the nation's best and brightest minds to compete in a challenge-based competition offered up by the Discovery Channel.

The competition will test a broad range of expertise, experience and skill-sets.

The show producers are putting out the call to anyone interested but there's a distinct lack of women applying, so there's a special invitation going out to all lady know-it-alls.

In the series, ten competitors claim to be know-it-alls and compete in a series of challenges. The challengers depend upon practical knowledge of physics, mathematics and engineering to succeed at the challenges.

The series is hosted and narrated by Daniel Fathers.

Each episode contains three challenges. All competitors compete in the first two challenges and at the end of each challenge, one competitor is sent to the Danger Zone as a result of the poorest performance. The Danger Zone is the last challenge, at which one competitor succeeds and stays in the competition while the other is eliminated.

A ritual at the end of each episode has the eliminated contestant walk over to a switch near a row of light bulbs, flipping the switch causes one light bulb to drop onto the floor.

Most challenges include at least one twist, a detail that is not announced or provided until the challenge is underway or is completed.

In some challenges, the competitors are organized into teams. Teams stay together for one episode.

This competition is open to Canadians 18 year and old of all backgrounds. The show is asking anyone to apply or nominate their best candidate.
