a simple truth.

right now, i am watching a tv game show called Million Dollar Password. it's basically exactly like the game taboo. but i'm betting that this show won't last long, despite the celebrity endorsements. want to know why?

because i just realized what makes the success of game shows.
it's all about audience/viewer participation.
if the audience at home can join in on the fun, it's probably going to succeed at least a little bit.
take it from some classics....
jeopardy, wheel of fortune, the price is right, merv griffin's crosswords. you get the picture.
but in million dollar password the answer is right on the screen.
not fun. at all.
so that's why i'm guessing it won't last long. you know, in case you cared... haha

just thought i'd put that out there........
don't judge my nerdy excessive game show watching.



p.s. jeopardy is the best ever!!!
