The Chase itself is a relatively high brow quiz but presented in a manner which makes it very accessible and feels right for ITV. Similarly Millionaire arrived and presented itself very differently to other question and answer formats - and really changed the game in terms of production design for game shows.
Even longer running high brow shows like Mastermind and University Challenge, who probably both come close to Jeopardy in terms of overall age, have production values that now feel quite modern and keep what are fairly high brow question and answer formats interesting to watch.
P.S. In other gameshow news it's 15 years today since the revival of The Krypton Factor. Indeed think it's now longer since that finished than it was 15 years ago since the original series ended.
