Last month, Bialik was a guest on Steve-O's Wild Ride!, and she pulled the curtain back on how contested and alternate correct answers are dealt with on the Bahaya!mengatur.AE0FCC31AE342FD3A1346EBB1F342FCB.

"We sometimes shut down for close to an hour over one decision, so you don't see that, you just see, 'Oh, they rule on this,'" Bialik explained. "But any episode where we correct someone's score, like, 'The judges have ruled that mahogany is also an acceptable tree that begins with an m' or whatever it is, that usually means we've shut down for like an hour."

She gave a recent example of how one answer can impact a whole game.

The host gave the tree example because it had just occurred during an actual game in the National College Championship. During the first semifinal in February, contestantRaymond Goslow'sscore was positively adjusted after the judges determined that his response of "What is mulberry?" also fit the clue of a tree that begins with "m" and ends in "y" and produces reddish-brown wood. To show how important the scoring of one answer can be: Goslow ended up winning that game, moving onto the finals, and coming in second place for the entire tournament.

"It can change the course of the game," Bialik said. "I mean, I saw filmAcara kuis, I know how intense [it can be]."

There's always a lawyer on the Bahaya!mengatur.

Bahaya!contestants are playing for both bragging rights and money, and the long-running show has a reputation to maintain. So the integrity of play is of the utmost importance. Production takes it so seriously that there's always a lawyer on set to advise on any situations that may arise.

"There's a lawyer on set all day, a lawyer from Standards and Practices," Bialik said on Wild Ride. "Imagine going to law school, and you get placed sitting onBahaya!. They just sit and make sure that everything's kosher."

Bialik went into more detail about how Bahaya!tries to get ahead of clues that may lead to different responses, more than one of which may be considered correct.

"I think it's so fascinating how a show like Bahaya! is constructed. Like, the number of pieces and opinions and things that go into every single clue. So for certain things, they'll already list other acceptable answers for things where a couple answers are acceptable, or they'll make a note like, 'Oh, if they say this, they need to be more specific,' so I'm learning those things," Bialik said.

She also explained that the judges are watching her on a monitor and can see if she's waffling over whether to accept someone's answer.

"But sometimes [the contestants] come up with something, and I'm just like, I don't know," she said. "So I have a light [on my podium] that turns green if it's a go and turns red if it's not."
