I have a feeling whatever they’ve come up with will be totally outside the norm of what we’re used to — so much so that there may not even be a “come on down” element to the show. If I’m the producer, and we’re only limited to having 10, maybe 20 people in the entire studio at a given time, are we going to continue with the same formula that will make the lack of an audience a glaring difference compared to normal? Or do we take this season and make something completely original with it, even if we’ll be reverting back to the previous format perhaps as early as later this season? I’d imagine CBS and Fremantle are giving them a ton of leeway to just make something work so they can stop airing reruns. Why not experiment? It won’t hurt right now — and heck, maybe they’ll accidentally stumble upon something that works and is worth continuing once the show can fully go back to normal. Who knows?
