A talk show hosted by Terry Crews, Danny DeVito, and Tommy Chong, which exclusively interviews the most boring guests you can imagine.

**"Literally Geniuses" is a talk show where the most aggressively boring guests imaginable are treated like misunderstood visionaries.** Guests like:
* A guy who *catalogs different types of sandpaper*
* A woman who *writes obituaries for pets, professionally*
* Someone who *alphabetizes soup cans for fun*
But! Crews, DeVito, and Chong respond to each guest's stories with utter amazement:
* **Terry Crews** [*known for his high-energy positivity*] would be fully invested, eyes wide, giving motivational speeches about how the difference between grit #60 vs #220 is a metaphor for joyful living. Or openly sobbing as a random ceiling tile guy recalls the "incident at the Minneapolis courthouse, 2004"
* **Danny DeVito** [*known for his unhinged sense of humor*] would be climbing onto the table in full gremlin mode, shouting "THIS IS NUTS! THIS IS INSANITY!" after hearing a mildly unusual pet name. Or having a full-on existential crisis after hearing about a woman's custom binder tab system, like "This changes... *everything*. It's like... all the things I've ever known were some big *lie*! ***How are you so calm!? You're all being lied to!!!***"
* **Tommy Chong** [*known for being... Tommy Chong*] would just lean back, nodding like the guest is a Zen master, somehow relating everything back to *"the universe,"* saying stuff like "But what does *'ergonomic chair'* really *mean*? It’s about *cosmic harmony*, man. The only *real* chair... is the one the *Earth* sits on."
Fully serious production values (dim lighting, tasteful jazz transitions, polite applause) as if it's the most important conversation show on television. And the hosts never break character.
I would 100% ***pay*** to see this show.
