“Show Me the Money” Website Debuts
Thanks to reader Mark for pointing this out: what is quickly becoming (sadly) a cross between “Dancing With the Stars” and “Deal or No Deal”, “Show Me the Money” had it’s site debut on ABC. It’s very minimal, so all you’ll get to do is stare at a nice pair of legs and Shatner looking a tiny bit confused, or like he just had a sour piece of candy. And yes, astute readers of BuzzerBlog will notice that they are using the FOX logo, but with the title “Show Me The Money” instead of “Show Me What You Got”. Although, I do have to say, hearing Shatner asking dancers “Show Me What You Got” would be slightly funny. So guys, how do you think this game is going to go?
In the front game, the player selects a scroll and it may be added or subtracted from the player’s bank roll. If the player finishes in the black, he/she goes on to the main game. The rules of the main game are simple: answer a question right and you multiply what is on a scroll by your dollar total. Get a question wrong and you divide it. That’s at least how the British version goes, and I’ll imagine the US version stays the same. So, any opinions? We’ve been proven that a trivia show cannot last in today’s primetime game show era, but could this have the perfect balance of trivia and dumb luck?








well considering that its going to be on at 7 p.m. CST on Wed i think this show has a decent shot. its gotta do better than what is on Wed on NBC. Jericho is doing ok. I think that until American Idol comes on Fox this show will do good in this time slot. proven though that a trivial show can’t last in today’s primetime game show era well what about 1 vs 100. its doing good in the ratings so considering this is a mix of trivia and dumb luck this could be very exciting show. I think William Shatner hosting this will be interesting to watch and those lovely ladies too.
Jericho’s been getting 6’s, which is pretty good, considering it’s going against the DWTS results show. Once this moves into that slot, the ratings will have to drop and those excess viewers will have to go somewhere, and that’s likely going to be Jericho or whatever’s on Fox.
From what I’m expecting, getting half the ratings of the Results Show would be a job well done.
Maybe you could shrink that ginormous picture first before uploading it, instead of making it crunch it down so much every time someone loads the site. It just takes a while for the image to load when you make it do that, and it’s somewhat annoying for someone who comes to the site as often as I do.
