THE Chase host Sara Haines has shocked fans after asking an NSFW question during Thursday’s new episode.

The game show has only just returned from hiatus, and it has already made its viewers uncomfortable with one of its trivia Qs.

After a few months away, The Chase returned with a new episode on Thursday.

The broadcast saw competitors Traci Mack, David Abolafia, and Tanya Melendez going up the quiz champion of the night, Victoria Groce.

When it was David’s turn to answer a few questions, he, his fellow contestants, and viewers at home were surprised by one of the asks.

Trying to hold back her own laughter, host Sara asked: “Thought to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck, giant lifelike penises are painted everywhere in what country?

Everyone laughed in the background as she read off the question, while David worked on choosing between the multiple choice answers of Bhutan, Azerbaijan, or Burkina Faso.

He submitted Burkina Faso as his guess, and added out loud: “Not exactly something I studied, but–“

Sara jokingly cut him off to ask:“Burkino Faso or the lifelike penises?”

“That one,” he simply told her.

Unfortunately for the contestant, the correct answer was Bhutan.

After David got the question wrong, Sara checked in to see if the Chaser for the episode got it right.

This time around, Jeopardy! alum Victoria was the chaser, whose job it was to beat the contestants in trivia.

She revealed that she did, indeed, have the correct answer.

“I don’t know how,” she admitted while laughing, and the host quickly shot back: “I don’t want to know how at this point.”

As the episode aired on Thursday, Victoria took to Twitter to give some follow-up information about her knowledge on this topic.

She tweeted out: “Update: turns out I had a flashcard on the Bhutan thing, because OF COURSE I DID. #TheChase”

Meanwhile, fans hit up the social media platform to admit to being shocked by the NSFW question to start with.

One surprised viewer said: “I was not expecting a question about a male private part, but got lucky for guessing Bhutan.”

A second admitted: “Hearing penis on the chase was the jumpscare of the century.”

Another tweeted: “Proud to report I also got the giant penises question [correct], staying true to my personal branding.”

Earlier in the day, Sara had mentioned on her other hosting gig, on The View, that the game show would be returning that evening.

She announced that the game show would be "back tonight with the season premiere."

The morning talk show panelist continued to sell viewers on the show, stating: "It's something you can watch with your family. It's an awesome, kind of, heart-racing show."
