The Anonymous is an American reality competition television series, produced by Studio Lambert, that first aired on USA Network in August 2024. The series bills itself as a game based around the concepts of social media and its anonymity, where you can be anyone and say anything on the Internet disguised behind a handle. It has been described as a cross between The Circle and The Traitors in format.

Format

The Anonymous is a strategic reality competition series that's played in two worlds: the real world where players interact face to face, but also a digital world, where players communicate behind a mask of anonymity, known as "Anonymous Mode". Here in individual private hideouts, each player is free to say whatever they want in order to advance their game. On this show, it begs the question, "What would you say and do if nobody was watching you?".

Each week, the players compete in a challenge to earn money towards their collective pot, which could total up to $100,000. During "Anonymous Mode", the players are able to vote for anyone to be up for elimination. After a quick break, the contestants return to "Anonymous Mode" where they make their best guess as to who each player is behind their handle. The contestant that is able to go undetected the best by the other contestants is deemed "The Anonymous" of that week. They then can choose to eliminate anyone who is up for elimination, who must reveal their handle identity before they depart.

The players had to double up in pairs. They then had to build a tower of blocks with numbers and operations on them, to make a sum totaling one of the prize money options given ($50, $140, $255, $524, $681, $978, $1,327, $1,563, $1,999). The tower had to stand alone for three seconds to be added to the prize pot. One member of the team who completed their sum in the fastest time would be safe from elimination. The teams had 12 minutes to complete their challenge. The pairs were Andy & Nina ($524), Bismah & Lilly ($50), Christopher & Victoria ($1,999), Dillian & Marcel ($140), and Jack & Xavier ($1,999).
