Joel McHale Promotes The 1% Club on Fox and Hulu

Joel McHale is turning up the excitement ahead of tonight’s debut of The 1% Club on Fox and tomorrow’s streaming premiere on Hulu. In a recent Instagram post, the comedian and actor wrote, “Tonight is the night! (@foxtv) And then of course tomorrow is tomorrow! (@hulu) Watch The 1% Club on Fox and Hulu. It’s the quiz that everyone on the street is talking about.” His announcement comes as the U.S. adaptation of the hit British game show makes its stateside bow.

Host Joel Mchale Takes The Reins

Joel Edward McHale, best known for Community and The Soup, steps behind the podium as host of this fast-paced quiz format. Produced by Fox Entertainment, The 1% Club challenges 100 contestants to answer a series of increasingly difficult questions. Only the top one percent of performers share the prize pot—hence the show’s title. McHale’s quick wit and experience in live television promise to keep both participants and viewers on their toes.

According to Fox press materials, the series blends trivia with strategy and social psychology, asking contestants to decide whether their peers will answer correctly. McHale’s role is to guide contestants through tense moments, weigh in with lighthearted banter and remind everyone that sometimes, the simplest questions are the hardest to get right.

From Screenings To Streaming

This isn’t McHale’s first rodeo with the network. Last week he attended a Fox screening of Animal Control alongside co-star Daniel Pudi and actress Grace Palmer. A tagged Instagram post captured the trio at the FoxScreenings event, underscoring McHale’s growing partnership with the network.

Beyond his hosting duties, McHale remains active in film and television. His IMDb credits include stand-up specials, guest roles on hit series, and supporting turns in independent features—a nod to his long-standing support for emerging filmmakers, as detailed in earlier behind-the-scenes posts from projects like Tim Travers & the Time Traveler’s Paradox.

First airing on Fox tonight and available to stream on Hulu tomorrow, The 1% Club promises to combine nail-biting competition with McHale’s signature humor. Viewers nationwide are gearing up for a trivia experience that rewards not just knowledge, but insight into human behavior—plus, the chance to root for everyday contestants chasing a life-changing prize.

Whether you’re a quiz show junkie or a casual viewer tuning in for McHale’s jokes, tonight’s episode marks the start of a unique game-night event. With Fox and Hulu sharing the spotlight, The 1% Club looks set to become the latest must-watch on both broadcast and streaming platforms.
