* **It’s a reality game show, not a cartoon:** Forget everything you thought you knew about a simple animated series. The "Among Us Show" is actually a thrilling, real-life competition series coming to CBS, where 10 contestants must complete tasks and root out the "Impostors" among them in a massive, physical recreation of the Skeld spaceship.
