LeVar Burton is moving on to a new game show. Deadline reports that the 64-year-old former Star Trek actor and Reading Rainbow educator will be hosting a new game show based on Trivial Pursuit!

If you’re unfamiliar, Trivial Pursuit is a game of knowledge where player’s answer general knowledge and popular culture questions.

The point of the game is to earn a wedge from each section on the board. The first to collect all six wedges is the winner. “Trivial Pursuit is one of the best-known brands in the gaming universe.

I am thrilled to have partnered with Hasbro and eOne to bring this beloved game to market as a premium show for television,” LeVar shared in a statement.
