How many times have you seen that kind of emotion on an American show for a prize less than $100,000? Now I'm in my desk chair and not in front of the cameras, but I think that's how I would play, I'd take C. My reasoning is that after those 50 seconds, B looks like C did to start with, and A looks a lot like B. My pride doesn't come before money. I REALLY want to see Americans playing this...

Unscripted TV, however, is still quite popular. It's too bad about the channel going under. Hopefully someone else will come in and pick up the concept.

I nearly flipped out when I when there was an "IJ" in one square! Honestly I think the extra rules don't help it all that much. Explain to me why they should win 20 Euros for switching two letters (there's only one possibility left!). I think that lingo is played out. It was good while it lasted.

Yes, the Googling. Nearly every use of the lifeline in the past few years is: Paraphrase question, spell out key word, give answers, then ~15 seconds of silence. Then at the end they might get an answer, or an "I don't know". I don't think it works anymore. Back in 1999 few people were standing by with their computer, and they actually went from their own knowledge. Now that happens on very rare occasion. Yes, the show needs to replace it. 4 lifelines still feels weird to me, but with the clock I think just 3 is slightly unfair. They do get Ask the Expert at the start now, but their "experts" have SUCKED half the time this season. Did anyone catch the contestant last week that wanted to ask Mo Rocca (a good expert IMO) on the $5000 question, and ran out of time because he didn't have that lifeline? (Much like the "you're not allowed to walk away" moment.) I fear that his confusion may have been the tipping point for this decision. I'm not even sure what a good 4th lifeline would be. Trust the audience? Ask Meredith? Ask an audience member? None of it fits. It was about time something was done to this lifeline, but they're not doing the right thing.

I think I just puked in my mouth a little bit. Keep him faaaaar away from this show. (Keep him away from EVERYTHING for that matter.)
