The Weakest Link (USA) is a game show that aired on NBC and later in syndication. It is an American adaptation of the BBC game show of the same name, and for its initial run on NBC it shared the same host, Anne Robinson. A version for syndication was developed and later debuted concurrently with the NBC version; this version shortened the game to 30 minutes instead of 60, and was hosted by George Gray.
In 2020, a revival of the show premiered on NBC, this time hosted by Jane Lynch.
