I understand that, but it's not the same show. The original show was an event, it had mass appeal, as well as a chance to win lots of money.MarleysGh0st wrote:Well, that says it all.

Of course, you fulfilled your quest back in the good old days, before the show started changing into what it is today.
Some of us still watch every new episode and still dream of getting our shot, no matter how that experience may have been degraded.
This show is stacked against the contestant - both by making the questions more "what am I thinking?" and by making luck so much more a part of a game where luck already plays a considerable role.
That show we all fell in love with has been dead for years. I'm not surprised to see that on a WWTBAM, 25% of the posters here compare watching the show unfavorably to being waterboarded.
