Get A Clue - Rob Belushi Interview

Rob Belushi hosts, Get A Clue

There’s a new game show on the airwaves and funnyman Rob Belushi is promising to deliver the goods!

Rob Belushi ( son of Jim and nephew of the late John Belushi) is the host of the new game show, Get A Clue. It’s a fast-paced, high energy clue game in which two teams compete to see who can successfully guess the most answer words before time runs out. In each round, teams will receive a list of answer words they get to play. The fun starts as the first player gives clues to the second player until they guess the correct word, then the second player gives clues to the third player, and so on, until the team either guesses all the words in the category or runs out of time. The team with the most points advances to the bonus round to play for $10,000. They’ll have 60 seconds to guess eight words but the entire team has to stay on their toes because the clue givers, and guessers, change randomly with every new word.

Chicago native Rob Belushi may be best known for his role as ‘Linus' the bartender on How I Met Your Mother. He began his career in the improv and theater scene at the famed Second City and Steppenwolf Theater. Belushi has also had reoccurring roles on Ballers, Chicago PD, The Mentalist, and Agents of Shield. His film credits include Sorority Row, One Small Hitch, and Valentine’s Day.

I spoke with Rob Belushi about hosting his first game show, going to game show host boot camp and how his improv background has helped him with pretty much everything he has done in his career so far!
