The Connection is a knowledge quiz that revolves around a single answer: the ultimate connection. Hosted by Patrick Lodiers, the show features three Dutch celebrities along with viewers at home competing across four rounds. The correct answers in each round are linked to one another, ultimately leading to a single, all-encompassing answer. For instance, what is the connection between Alicia Keys, the Guggenheim Museum, the Yankees, and *Friends*? Or between the color red, May 1st, Jan Wolkers, and Doorn? Which contestant possesses not only a broad range of general knowledge but also the ability to link all the answers together to uncover the ultimate connection?
