   On one hand, this sounds interesting, and not too demeaning, kinda like a spin on The Newlywed Game, except it’s loved ones instead of the spouse.

   On the other hand, I wonder how personal the show plans to get with the info. And do I smell a money tree for every fact guessed correctly? :-P

   At least there’s no letter to zoom through. :-)

   Sounds less-bad than any FOX game show post-DoND.

   I smell a money tree too. Let’s play Guess The New Strange Amount. $125,000’s due a comeback, it’s not appeared since ABC Millionaire…

   If NBC bumps “1 vs. 100″ again for this, I’m going to start watching “Don’t Forget the Lyrics!” out of spite.

   Capitals and lower case A’s have holes. Turning the S in to a dollar sign adds 2 more as well. It’s a conspiracy, I tell you.

   I don’t really see this working. There are too many details in a person’s life that cannot be nailed down. Think of The Newlywed Game and asking people what their first date was like. More often than not the stories are different. Game shows (and puzzle writers) stick mainly to trivia because it’s researchable and provable. How much of your life could you definitively prove as a contestant on this show? How much of *someone else’s* could you prove if someone you knew was the contestant? (And how creepy is it that your friends would be teaming up with some TV writers to become more of an expert on your life than you are?)

   Not sold on the concept at all.

   I could see it being “Don’t Forget The Lyrics” or “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader” aka
   “Another Million Dollar Chance To Make an Ass out of Yourself”

   But even I will admit THIS SHOW will not last.

   Why?

   No one wants to watch a full hour of a person talking about his life by telling the truth. Especially if it is “Joe Contestant”.

   Can FOX go back to making Sitcoms and Animated Series? Or did it die for its “FOX REALITY” image?
