There we go.  And no one's ego was bruised in the process, either.  :-D

Someone could end up playing Temptation for a used 1972 Ford Pinto!

How about Clock Game where you will win $100 after winning two prizes?

Or worse... Clock Game where you should say an exact price to win a trip as a first prize, but you end up winning nothing instead because you can't say it right? And then 4-digit prizes will be offered as first prizes, leading to overloaded losing streaks in the future.

Jeopardy will now be known as "Classic Jeopardy" - including the return of rounds of $10-$50 and $20-$100 answers.

As for TPIR, the most expensive trips offered will be to San Diego and Las Vegas.

So this is the "get off of my lawn" stage of my life.  I'm not impressed.

You suddenly see a trend toward very dark studios, like the last couple of seasons of American Gladiators, but not for effect--no, but because energy prices are too high.
