On The Spot

On The Spot is Rooster Teeth Productions' official weekly game show that pits two Rooster Teeth teams against each other and 'on the spot' to earn points. The show is hosted by Jon Risinger who leads the games and also dictates whether an answer is deserving of points or not.

New episodes are live-streamed every Thursday on the Rooster Teeth website, and are released to FIRST Members a day after, and to the public two days after. Some special episodes are not streamed live, and are instead prerecorded and uploaded later.

As of Episode 51, the show has a new set, logo and round intros.

Overview
Two teams of two from Rooster Teeth compete against each other in three different comedic games that test the competitors on their improv abilities. The winning team earns the "Golden Gus" (a golden statue of Gus Sorola) and a spot for the following week to continue their reign as champions.

The current team listings can be found under Team Names.

Season 2

 * Notes
 * 1 Blaine took a shot of Apple Cider Vinegar for the win.
 * 2 Each partner of Blaine's switched to the other team during the show, causing a new team to be formed with each new teammate. Despite the others joining Team Fun 'n' Fancy Free (FnFF), only Gus and Aaron actively participated and moved on to the next episode, therefore the other members will count as a half victory and loss.

Season 3

 * 1 Dan, Kerry, Arin, and Miles rotated partners causing new team names to be formed. Jon determined the winning team by giving points to the RTX crowd's choice. Due to the constant changing of teammates, each participant will receive a half victory and a loss.

Season 4

 * 1 Gavin was the first person to burp for the win and was given one additional point, because of this it will be counted as a full win and not a tie or half win.

Season 5

 * 1 Due to the nature of the way points were given, the following is an approximation of the points for each side.

Season 6

 * 1 During the final game, both teams decided to tie so a winner was never chosen.
