Format

In each episode, five contestants striptease to a music video, while interviews, soundbites and photos reveal stories about each so-called "pancer". For the first two seasons, the audience selected each episode’s winner by texting their vote. The third season used a format where judges selected the weekly winner. Each episode's winner received $200 and the opportunity to compete in a championship at the end of the season.

In October 2009 the show was launched in the UK on MTV's new channel Viva. The show has a completely new look and currently broadcasts in double bill episodes. There is no cash prize on the UK version and there is no overall winner.

A Much Music version aired in Canada which involved the dancers stripping, often with the use of "mystery object", while an unseen narrator makes jokes.

Hosts

The first season was hosted by Tila Tequila and Krista Ayne. Former child star Jodie Sweetin joined the show as host for Season 2. Willa Ford hosted Season 3.

Production

The show's creator is Tad Low.

gollark: Maybe the goal is to make all your opponent's functions identity functions, as someone said.
gollark: And you can combinate at your opponents a bit, but it's harder than affecting your own.
gollark: I would prefer to make it so that you just... apply functions to the slots somehow, and the goal is to make your own functions cool and good™ somehow and the opponent's bad.
gollark: It's an interesting idea, but I don't really like how the functions seem somewhat disconnected from the actual health values.
gollark: Is this just a mockup or does it actually work?
