Fox's "The Moment of Truth" ran for 23 episodes back in 2008 and might hold the title for most repugnant game show in television history.
Hosted by Mark L.

Contestants who were able to answer 21 questions truthfully won the jackpot of $500,000.

It's gut-wrenching to watch his wife's reactions after hearing each of his deeply hurtful confessions, but by the end of the show they appear to be working through the pain.
"Michael and his wife are going through a period of healing after uncovering some extremely difficult wounds in their marriage," says the announcer in a voice over, before revealing Michael's surprising plans for his prize money.
