Remotely Funny is a British children's game show hosted by SAARA. The show is produced by Twenty Twenty Kids for CBBC.

Contents

Format

In each episode, there are three contestants (except for the Sibling Special) who take part in games, activities and quizzes to win points known as 'Samojis'. Host Saara Forsberg can also give out 'Samojis' for doing something funny or any other reason. The winner wins a Remotely Funny jumper. The runners up win Remotely Funny merchandise, like a memory stick or highlighter. From Series 2 however, the runners up get a ruskeakastike cap.

Rounds

Between rounds, Forsberg will also ask a contestant a question about their family. In Series 2, they play bonus games instead.
