I was just wondering if the Mexican version of the Feud, could ever come to the States, with english subtitles. I would really like to see it.
-
It's already in the states, on the Telefutura channel -- weeknights at 7PM ET (a full hour). No subtitles, though.
-
I know, but I meant besides that.

It COULD happen, in the sense that the technology exists for them to do so. I wouldn't hold my breath, tho.

No, but, just like me, you have to learn some Spanish...
Of course, my question is:
Doesn't it seem like "Dinero Rapido" is a lot more difficult on 100MD than it is/was on American FF???
-
Ya know, with all these requests, I am OH SO TEMPTED to translate an upcoming episode in full, and maybe some others I already DVD'ed. Also, I don't know if it would ever include subtitles, because this is primarily....A Mexicano show. I guarantee, some of the questions...you probably won't get at all unless you lived there, or really know your Mexican geography. =P
...and heck yes, Dinero Rapido can get extremely tough, since it seems moreso on this version that a few of the numero uno responses are in the 15-25 Mexicanos range.
Besides, chances are if you watch this show enough...you're bound to learn SOME Spanish, and pick up a few choice phrases. =D

Translated DVDs? That would be interesting...if the project takes off, let me know! BTW, how many eps. do you have on DVD, and which seasons?
Regarding DR...while there are some "smaller" #1 answers, I've noticed that some questions have #1 answers in the 60s and 70s on occasion. But yeah, there's been MANY close losses too. BTW, on a semi-related question...anyone got an idea of the official range of points that can be earned with a "Puntas Extra" lollipop? (I've only seen 5's appear myself)
-
Well on today's hour, it seems that both things I talked about came to light! There was a 199 loss in DR (causr the last answer was a 0), but the second DR was saved by a 20 point extra (so we know it goes up to 20 now)
-
If anything, the only subtitles you will see on Telefutura is the conversion of Mexican Pesos to United States Dollars.
And if you convert 100,000 pesos to the USD today, you're looking at less than $10,000.
-
Actually, I was thinking another direction on the toughness of Dinero Rapido:
It almost seems like you either get questions you can't possibly get 40 between the top 2 answers of, or you have to get the #1 answer (for about 60-70 points, I think I've seen a 72) or you basically get a 0.
I've seen more than a couple Dinero Rapidos with like 3-5 0's and a couple of 2's.
