NBC updated their press archive with a few pictures of the upcoming season of 1 VS 100. The only major change is that the monitor displaying different items is in the center of the Mob area instead of to the side. At least to me it really throws off the entire foreboding vibe that the Mob carries. However, they have to get their camera angles any way they can. I’ll try to get some zoomed-out shots later, including pictures of gameplay.
And there is one thing I wanted to discuss. We’ve all made it blatantly clear that a vast majority of us do not like the new rules at all. However, please don’t let it stop you from watching and enjoying the show. This is the only rather-hard trivia show to come out in quite some time and the fact that the rules are a bit screwy doesn’t change the fact that it should be a challenging and entertaining hour long quiz show. If you want to see more Deal or No Deal clones, then just stop watching because of the rule changes. However, it sure isn’t making me turn away and hope it doesn’t for you either.

To be fair, there was always this weird set of gaps between the center podiums on the bottom rows. Perhaps putting the question screen there will get rid of those gaps.
Also, at least now the player will most likely be facing the mob when answering as opposed to looking away from them. The old question board always seemed to be out of the way as though turning the camera a little bit more would show all the stagehands.
The placing of the screen in the middle of the mob area sounds like a weird idea, but then again, it does fill up those gaps in the seating.
And is it me, or does Bob Saget look a lot like Stephen Colbert?
As stated before, I will give this a chance. It might just surprise me. Besides if I’ve learned anything as of late, it’s that words shouldn’t determine your actions, your actions determine your destiny and I’m destined to watch this period.
To Mark D: Actually now that you mention it, he kinda does. OMG what if they’re twins? Nah I’m kidding. lol
