Terry Crews, on the other hand, is not only well-known, but impressive as host of Millionaire.

Agree to disagree...big time...

Elaborate, please.

I had no idea who Terry Crews was before the announcement. We don't watch that TV show he's in.

That's a pity; I grabbed an episode from last week and it was decent.

That you don't know who he is doesn't mean he's not well-known.  Alas, this is a sign that you're becoming an old fart like the rest of us.

Don't worry.  Tomorrow morning I'm going to be complaining about that Craig Ferguson whippersnapper.

We tend to avoid any police shows at our house. My wife has learned that I nitpick every thing even if it's a comedy.

May have catered to a specific audience, but Terry made a splash on Chris Rock's semi-autobiographical sitcom.

Also, his tenure as the 2nd Old Spice guy was mildly notable.
Me: Of all of the game shows you've hosted besides Jeopardy!, like High Rollers or Classic Concentration, which is your favorite?
Alex Trebek: I'd have to say To Tell The Truth, because it was the first time in my career that I got to sit down while I was hosting.

And if you want to go unnecessarily further back, there was this:

You're missing one of the funniest comedies on TV right now, your wife be damned.

I first became aware of Terry Crews in a film called "Idiocracy."

Don't know how long the show will last because of all the problems, but the set looks nice at least...

Monopoly social media reports the show is being pushed back to premiere March 28 - 29. Still no real independent confirmation on its status with GSN.

I read a Las Vegas newspaper article that blatantly spoiled two contestants had already won the $1,000,000 top prize on the TV show. I'm wondering if those prizes have to be paid even if the shows never make it to broadcast? I'll ask some of my Virginia Lottery friends. Virginia was about to join the game until it melted down.

I guess it would be possible to scrub the lottery tie-in part of the game, but that's one hell of a waste. That makes me believe that they would want to wait until Monopoly Millionaires Version 2 starts playing so that they can say "You could be on stage and win just like Bertha Ricketts just did."
