Details.
Wiki.
Puppet History is a game show YouTube series produced by Ryan Bergara, Steven Lim, and Shane Madej through their company, Watcher Entertainment. Bergara, Lim, and Madej met when they worked at BuzzFeed but later left to seek more artistic control. Bergara and Madej are best known from their series BuzzFeed Unsolved.
Puppet History began in January 2020. The show's premise sees a colorful puppet historian known as the Professor presenting a game show about one or two distinctive persons or events from history. The two contestants answer questions, and the Professor gives them points; the contestant with the most points wins the title of "History Wizard" and a hat. Before season six, the contestant with the most points won the title of "History Master" and a small trophy. A season six was announced on Shane Madej's social media and was released on July 7, 2023.
