About ADbc

ADbc ended on December 19, 2010, on SBS.

It was a history-based quiz show that aired from August 27, 2009, to December 19, 2010. The program featured two teams of two contestants each — one an academic and the other a comedian — who competed in a game that combined facts and humor. Hosted by Sam Pang, the show challenged whether a historian could be funny and if a comedian knew anything about history, creating an entertaining mix of learning and laughter.

ADbc was a comedy and history series that aimed to test contestants' knowledge and comedic timing in a lighthearted format. The show was structured around various quiz rounds, with the goal of winning the game through both wit and knowledge. Its unique premise brought together different skill sets in an engaging way during its run in 2009 and 2010.
