No sh*t, Sherlock!

/Too much?
//Not enough?

EDIT: You know what, now that I think about it, I liked 20Q for maybe two episodes, then it got to be annoying a tad. Never saw The Money List. But if there's one thing to learn around here, don't assume the majority is automatically thinking what you think they're thinking.

Who? Not me, I liked 20Q and thought Money List was tolerable. Six episodes were made two years ago; GSN wasn't going to air them forever.

Not enough...asterisks. I would have gone with 's**t'.

I felt the same way. For me, it was the overly snarky "Mr. Q" with a seemingly endless supply of cringe-worthy puns and sex jokes that broke it for me.

As for Money List: A simple game way overblown in drama, graphics and set. (Does the set have to be *that* huge?)

Post by: Ian Wallis on October 05, 2009, 05:12:07 PM: I only saw Money List once, when my cable company was doing a weekend preview of some channels. I actually kind of liked it and would like to have seen more of it.

Haven't seen Money List, but my biggest problems with 20Q were that it is basically every other obnoxious Endemol show that damn near turned me away from the genre three years ago. I like Hal Sparks, but as the computer, the constant commentary got old for me rather quickly. LMaD today proved that you can still have a energetic game show with excited contestants, yet not be completely over the top with gratuitous manufactured excitement.

I thought for a 3rd tier cable station, it was a damn good set, even if it was taken wholesale from its other versions.

Well, the 8pm Feud was Karn's first show with Rico v. Klopenstein, with the audience giving him a standing ovation. "You've made me feel at home", says Al Borland.
