I'm on Trivial Pursuit: America Plays today!

#1 Post by chad1m » Wed Oct 29, 2008 11:25 am

As part of the America's Team, one of my questions will be used on Trivial Pursuit: America Plays today! Hopefully not too many markets will be pre-empting it for election coverage, but it's bound to happen.

Anyway, wish me luck! [Or dumb in-studio contestants!]

(And still no word on my MDP appearance. =\)

Nah.

If I'm going to wish you retroactive good luck, it'll be for your MDP appearance. Why waste it on the tiny sliver of the America's Team pot you might split on Trivial Pursuit? :P

What's the approximate number of questions/number of ways they split the America's Team pot on this show, anyway?

I think anywhere from, like, 15 to 25. I'm not quite sure, exactly, I've only seen a handful of episodes since my DirecTV doesn't carry the My station it is syndicated on.

Perhaps with the cancellation of "The Ex-List", CBS will put MDP in there. So far, it looks like some "NCIS" episodes will be filling the gap.
However, a Friday night slot might not bode well for needing future MDP shows.

That's what I thought! Here's hoping, because I can't wait much longer. ;)

It's prolly too late for a lot of people, but I wanted to bump this just in case!

I'm sure the show will be preempted for me this evening, so how about a spoiler? Did you win?

Woo hoo! :)

That's a life-changing amount of money, particularly when it's added to whatever you're winning on Password! :mrgreen:

It probably won't be on Friday. MDP was a frequent ratings winner in its Sunday night timeslot, so I would watch for it to return there once the current season of The Amazing(-ly Annoying Bickering Couples) Race wraps up. Probably in December (or January, if CBS fills up their schedule with holiday specials). Best of luck, hope you got a decent celebrity to play with. (Steve Schirripa - shudder...)
