The only mildly entertaining aspect of this show is the robotic chair, and even that quickly loses it's appeal. The challenges presented in this show are similar to that of a kindergarten pop quiz. As long as you know the alphabet and can repeat four words in order, you'll win big. Seriously just watched an episode where the challenge was to put goat, coat and boat in alphabetical order. It amazes me at how shocked and amused not only the contestants look, but also host Rob Lowe looks when the questions are answered correctly.
The questions are so ridiculously easy and simplistic that they lose all entertainment value. It's not challenging enough to actually build any suspense. It becomes more frustrating than anything. The contestant after a brief second to long pause answered with "boat, coat, goat." The show attempted to build that suspense as the robot took a moment of silence before chiming in with correct. Meanwhile, the viewer and almost anyone who has a basic sense of their ABC's already confirmed that it was correct as the question was still being red.
It's a trivia game for idiots.
