Game Shows Offering No Prize Money

Just think about the PR in the U.S. surrounding a new, well-produced game show with a good game...where there was NO prize money. The attention alone would guarantee ratings sampling success.

You're right, I did forget Wipeout and Singing Bee (although I'm tempted to include Singing Bee under 'nobody watches it'--that's still on CMT?).

It's on Series 2, if I recall.

Also, there's all the kids shows, whether it be local HS Quizzer or BrainSurge or something else entirely.
