And kind of on that theme the second season of The Chase on ABC debuted on Sunday and they have fixed most of the problems with the show by speeding up the questions and reducing the cash builder to $10k a question, meaning the offers are at least worth consideration.
Buzzerblog has an interview with the EP - I do think credit to them for listening to feedback and fixing the obvious gameplay mechanic issues, though I don't think his justification of a "primetime audience" needing greater clarity, hence the slower speed, or the idea that Jeopardy living America doesn't really do trivia particularly stands up. Interesting to the comment about "standards and practices" and how the host wasn't allowed the time she wanted to practice reading the questions in order I guess to ensure they couldn't be leaked to contestants beforehand.
