Claim to Fame is an American reality competition series that premiered on ABC on July 11, 2022. The series is hosted by Kevin Jonas and Frankie Jonas. A second season premiered on June 26, 2023, followed by a third season on July 10, 2024.
A number of contestants, each of whom has a famous relative, move into a secluded house together and are tasked with deducing which celebrities the other contestants are related to while also keeping their own celebrity relationship a secret. Every episode, the contestants participate in a competition, most of which incorporate cryptic clues that the contestants can use in their deductions. The winner (or the captain of the winning team in a team challenge) is usually granted immunity for the round and a bonus rebus that can be deciphered into a clue about another contestant.
At the end of most episodes, the contestants secretly vote between the two lowest-ranked performers in the competition (or the captain of the losing team, along with another losing team member of their choice) to be the round's "guesser". The guesser then chooses any other non-immune contestant and must announce which celebrity they think this other contestant is related to. If the guesser is correct, the other contestant will be eliminated; if the guesser is wrong, the guesser will be eliminated instead.
The final contestant remaining wins $100,000.

[52] Entertainment Weekly described the show as, "a bit of a Frankenstein's monster — part Big Brother , part The Masked Singer , a pinch of The Other Two ", saying that, "It's almost impossible not to play along".
