Title: Info on ABC's new game "Set For the Rest of Your Life"
Post by: weaklink75 on May 16, 2006, 01:21:46 PM

here's the press release.... (http://\"http://community.tvguide.com/thread.jspa?threadID=700001961\"), it's near the end of it..

It sounds interesting on paper....Maybe the partner decides whether or not the contestant bails out, but the contestant doesn't know until after the fact?

Sounds like more Feel-Bad television to me. "Oh, you think you won $10,000 a month? Guess again..." "Quick, get me a tight shot!"

It's an Endemol show--who else?

Note on the comments with the original link the whinings from SF geeks about "Invasion" getting cancelled.  Whine, whine, whine.

Which is amusing, because if you can't hold enough of the audience from friggin' LOST to stay on the air, your show REALLY sucks. :)

Those SF geeks are annoying.  They're also complaining about "Law and Order" reruns coming to the Sci-Fi channel.  Whats wrong with that?  They use scentific evidence to solve the crimes and it's a fictional show. That to me is Science-Fiction.  (That's a joke, son.)

Well, at least it's fiction.

"It's still real to me!"

*ahem* Okay, that'll cover the Fi, but what about the Sci?
