We Are Singaporeans is a game show that aired on Singaporean English language channel Mediacorp Channel 5 about everything and anything Singapore from history to culture to trivia. Hosted by Hossan Leong, contestants will get the chance to walk away with up to $20,000 every week. The show, which will run for 15 weeks, will feature guest appearances by local celebrities and icons who will ask contestants questions relating to a particular topic.
The game show title was derived from a segment of the series The Noose, which became a recurring joke. The Noose later parodied the idea through a satirical sketch in which The Noose company sues Mediacorp for "stealing" the idea from them and even hires "Sudah Anandas" (parody for Subhas Anandan) to fight their case in court.
A Malay version called "Kita Orang Singapura" with similar rules hosted by Najip Ali (who later hosted the English version on Season 4) debuted on 6 Jan 2014 and will end on 31 March 2014. There is also a Tamil version known as "Savaal Singapore". A fifth season is announced on 13 September 2020 with casting for auditions open until 16 October. The fifth season will premiere on 4 January 2021, with Leong returning to host the program. The season finale aired on 12 April 2021.
At the end of season 5, a total of 73 episodes have aired on Channel 5.
