That reminds me, the current PYL. I still think 30 minutes is too long for a bonus round and you have to make a concerted effort not to look at the clock around 9:53.
I'm with you there. As much as I've been a fan of PYL over the years, the bonus round on the current version is usually a drag to get thru. It would have been better to have two half-hour games instead.
Seems like the current version of PYL is best viewed and enjoyed "On Demand" when you start it at a random time without looking at a clock.
I generally didn't care about the front game of Shop Til You Drop except for the Shopper's Challenge round (tangent: Pat Finn is underrated in terms of handling rapid-fire Q&A), but I always found the bonus utterly delightful - and only JUST behind Legends of the Hidden Temple as the exemplar of the Stone-Stanley "Run around a ridiculously huge set finding stuff" bonus factory.
