So, I've Removed Millionaire From My DVR "Series Link"

#1 Post by chad1m » Sat Dec 14, 2013 6:57 pm

I've had a series recording on it since 2005, but I'm taking Who Wants to be a Millionaire off of recording on the DVR every day. Since Cedric came on board, I just don't enjoy it as much anymore. His personality doesn't mesh with the kind of show he's on and his attempts to inject humor are forced and take away from the game. Overall ratings averages are at their lowest, so I'm guessing I'm not the only person feeling like that.

Only about 8 or 9 questions are asked daily. I've lost a lot of interest too.

The only positive thing I can say about Cedric so far is he's got enthusiasm. I bet he'd be a lot of fun at a party. However, when he tries to insert jokes into the questions, it ruins the experience for me. He did that a couple times today. I know comedians are supposed to try to be funny, but this is a trivia show, not a comedy club.

100% agree.

I like the old format better.

I'm not watching it this week or next. :P
