“Minute to Win It” Picture Gallery

We’re getting pretty close to the debut of the newest primetime game show.  NBC’s Minute to Win It will be starting March 14th from 7:00PM ET to 9:00PM ET.  It’s been promoted pretty well during the Olympics, so I can see it getting a pretty decent turnout on the first episode at least.  NBC released pictures of game play and the set today.  The gallery is below.  How do you make an audience seem larger?  Get a giant video monitor at the top of the set, behind the audience, and put a picture of the audience section up there.  At least it’s better than The Moment of Truth using blow up dolls for audience members sometimes.  Also, some of these games are direct copies of The Cube, just using a timer instead of a number of tries, which basically makes the game boil down to luck.  We’ll have video in the next few days.  Despite some objections, though, it does look interesting and I’d be sure to check out the debut episode if for no other reason than to keep networks putting primetime games in.
