NEW YORK, June 20 (UPI) -- CBS has announced its newest game show, "Power of 10," which is produced in New York and features comedian Drew Carey as host, will debut in August.

After the show's Aug. 7 premiere, it will move to a regular Wednesday night time slot, TV Week reported Wednesday.

In "Power of 10," contestants will try predict the answer to poll questions such as, "What percentage of Americans said they were virgins the day they got married?"

The first question is worth $5,000 and each question after that raises the prize 10 times in value, all the way up to a $10 million grand prize.

"Power of 10" is produced by Michael Davies with Sony Pictures Television.
