Quiz with Balls

For the review saying a family was screwed in episode 2, you are very wrong. You should have done your research before showing your ignorance. Spam, the pork product, is a portmanteau of the words "spiced ham". You'll need to look that up, I'm sure. In case you don't, a portmanteau is the blending of words and sounds and meanings, like "brunch" for breakfast. Spam as in the unwanted email one might receive is also, not an acronym, as you already stated. This is a perfect example of someone thinking they are smarter than then giving a show a poor rating due to their own lack of knowledge. And if you think the rules of this game show are confusing, don't watch jeopardy.

I love swimming, looks so much fun, questions challenging. Every time someone get dumbed, I want to jump in there, too. There is nothing that annoys me in this show so far. It's fun and easy to watch and easy to be distracted from as well. Missing a minute or two will not take anything essential away in my opinion. But this is just a first haphazardly watched episode. Maybe I'll change my tune about this show, and if I do hopefully will remember to edit this. Sorry this being too long but I still have to find 84 characters to be accepted here.

How about changing is so when they get it right, then we get dumped in the pool?

1. Some of the questions are impossible to know all of the answers. While the variety of categories offered is great, specific questions are often too hard to answer. For example, tonight, I am watching and the subject was Sports. The question was "which of these pitchers had a no-hitter", then 6 potential answers that have no opportunity for strategy or knowledge unless someone is extremely obsessed with baseball. This was the final out for me. I like trivia but this is ridiculous. Maybe I'm too dumb... 2. The host is annoying 3. Too slow. Talking too much, repeating info and frequent commercials.

This game show was probably a good idea on paper but poor execution.

Sorry, not a fan.

What's not to like? FAMILY FEUD (two teams of five family members face off against each other) meets WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE? (pretty tough multiple choice questions) meets WIPEOUT (large inflated rubberized objects knock losing contestants into a swimming pool). The more members a family loses, the tougher the multiple choices get, but if you can keep from losing any, the level of difficulty stays the same for the next round.

From reading other reviewers, apparently one or another of the three facets of the show can put some viewers off, but to me they compliment each other. There are other quiz shows where the host deliberately delays revealing the correct answers to pad out the length of the show which other reviewers here complain about the host of this show, but while that's usually a deal-breaker for me, this host isn't as guilty of it as others. I definitely look forward to the show and find the questions challenging.

Finally!

I am a game show critique and I have analyzed many game shows over the years, and this one has to be the best!

All of these other game shows have been so tacky and lame, lacking character, but this one has me on the edge of my seat! The balls hitting the contestants was an amazing idea and keeping it fun for the whole family.

The questions and categories are always making me think yeah I got this when it's names I have never even heard of. I love it!

This show needs to be on for another decade. The host is hilarious and I am so entertained.

Jay Pharoah is awesome!

Thank you Fox.
