I say we give Eamonn Holmes another shot here in the US since FOX axed the Rich List WAY too early!

Wouldn't it make perfect sense for some easy product placement? Instead of "Simplify", why not have a big tacky "Easy Button" inside the cube that the player can press at any time, and tie it with Staples?

Heres my money chains:
$10,000 or $5,000 (Simplify gained)
$25,000 or $10,000 (Trial Run gained)
$50,000 or $25,000
$100,000 or $50,000
$250,000 or $100,000
$500,000 or $250,000
$1,000,000.
I like the 7-Game format, 8 may be ok (10 is worse enough).
I can totally see Mark Walberg hosting, anybody's voice can be used if u mess it up like in the show.

yes, it's too bad that Mr. "In A World" died last year

To LaJuan: I agree. Who cares about who plays The Body as long as she’s a hottie, and Peter Cullen was the one who provided the voice of Optimus Prime on Transformers (both the movie and the ’80s cartoon) and also do voiceover work for commericals and movie trailers.

Why are people giving suggestions on who The Body should be? We shouldn't know who it is. Just as long as they pick a hottie that can actually DO the stuff and make it look easy.

At first I thought Saget would be a bad choice as host, but now that I think about it, he could pull it off. Part of me wouldn't mind if they picked an unknown to host either.

I have no clue about Peter Cullen b/c "Pearl Harbor sucked……." (I'm anti-Mike Bey), Pat Kiernan would be cool for the voice.

and (I didn't realize I didn't do the body and Voice of the Cube)

The Body: Tameka Jacobs of DOND, she was my favorite of the 26 models, and was good enough to be one of the two on Daytime Deal

The Cube's Voice: I've got to agree with Peter Cullen. Optimus Prime could make even "I would like a cheese sandwich" ominous.

Actually I change my mind on the tree
$1,000,000
$500,000
$250,000
$125,000
$50,000
$20,000
$10,000
$2,000
$1,000

I've gota feeling Fox is going to hit the Jackpot with this one, and for a host I'd like to see Bob Saget working on this one. He did very good on 1 vs. 100 and that was the last really good Primetime Game Show since Season 1 DOND and Millionaire.
And this is (IMHO) a $1,000,000 show.

Task 9- $1,000,000
Task 8- $500,000
Task 7- $250,000
Task 6- $125,000
Task 5- $75,000
Task 4- $50,000
Task 3- $20,000
Task 2- $10,000
Task 1- $1,000

btw, I think a safe haven would be a good thing at the $50,000 or $75,000 levels

But Fox, you've done well with Game Shows in the past (maybe not 5th Grader and Truth), so don't disappoint us

I sincerely hope that all of you who have a money tree growing in your head get to use it someday. But with The Cube, the money is really secondary to the game. The only thing the tree in this show has to do is tempt the player to take a risk and continue playing after they've spent a few lives. I say, keep it as close to the UK tree as possible, don't add any steps to it or subtract any steps from it. If they check the current exchange rates, they can grow a decent tree. My guess is Fox will go with either $500,000 or $1M as the top prize. The rest of the levels don't really matter as long as each step is a big enough jump to make it worth the risk.

How would the "buy a second simplify for 10%" work? If you use your simplify, it's either move to the next step or bust; no walking away.
