I love watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire now that I took the time to compare dish and direct tv. It is not only my favorite game show; it is in my top ten favorite shows of all time. I am quite competitive and I find myself competing against the contestants. More often than not, I actually answer the question that they missed. The only disadvantage for me is the contestant walks away with usually thousands of dollars while I walk away with only a temporary sense of intellectual superiority!
It is all in good fun though. I have played the game on different video game systems. I really enjoyed when I played the board game with family and friends, however, since I am usually alone more often than not, I have just as much fun turning on my satellite TV and playing right along with Meredith and whichever contestant just happens to be on the show that day.
I do think that the first several questions are too easy, but I suppose that it would be embarrassing for a contestant to lose on the first question. I have heard that has happened but I have not seen it myself yet! The banter between Meredith who is the host and the contestants is cool to watch too. I have seen her on other shows but her humor really comes out with some of the competitors. Overall, it’s a half hour of my day that I enjoy more than I should, but we all need our guilty pleasures. Indeed, this game is very interesting. It really grinds your mind to try to remember any materials from any fields, until you can find your final answer. If you play this game, the most important thing that you should remember is that, true or false of your answer is not a matter; however, the important thing is you have tried your mind to answer.
