Well, since no one's started a topic on it, I guess I have to now, don't I?
Anyway, the Big Saturday Night segments were kind of enjoyable to watch, especially with the games (including one stunt that kinda rips off "Powerball" from
American Gladiators) but I found some of the hosts to be quite annoying, especially "Ross the Intern" from
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Keegan Michael-Key did a surprisingly good job, though. (I just wish real hosts like Chuck Woolery and Wink Martindale could be involved)
For
20Q, Cat Deeley did a pretty decent job of hosting (coming off as guest host of WWTBAM, you'd expect that), and I loved the quirky one-liners from Hal Sparks as Mr. Q, especially when that one contestant thought Florence Henderson was born in 1897 (and I ROMAOTFL!
). Gameplay was basically the same thing as standard Twenty Questions, and it had a good play-along factor. The prize of $20,000 in the final round isn't too shabby, either.
Money List wasn't bad either. Fred Roggin does a decent hosting job, even with him still doing GSN Live, and the gameplay was pretty good, too. And $50,000 is a nice payday for a cable show, IMHO.
The only gripes I had with both-- both of their sets are way too dark. (Do we really need another game show with a dark set in this era?) And some of the contestants on both shows were a little odd.
All in all, I'm going to continue watching them.
A+ on both!
Now, what did you guys think?
