Overview

Beat the Star is an Australian game show, based on the British version, which in turn is based on the German game show Schlag den Raab. The series is hosted by Daniel MacPherson and produced by Seven Media Group for the Seven Network. A family tries to beat a celebrity in a number of minigames in order to win a jackpot, starting at $50,000.
