That was, bar none, the worst "game show" I've ever seen.  And I've seen the entire run of TTD '90.

Not only that, the ending was very chaotic & wierd.  I'll take Playmania over this any day.

Tonight's trainwreck concluded with one of the hosts giving away the final "Nightcap" question's answer and the answer to the first puzzle for tomorrow night.

Also, Danny Woodburn, dwarf-sized actor from Death to Smoochy and some other things was the "celeb" for the evening. He might as well be the host as he just started yelling "just take a damned phone call" a few times along with lamenting over what happened to his career when he ended up on that show, etc.

I think I'll be watching this and saving my cash just to see if it can bottom out at some point.

I watched the first hour of MMM last night, getting a call back to play, but got disconnected when they tried to go to my call. Figures.

One thing my girlfriend and I found amusing: In the second puzzle, they went to a caller, who gave the correct answer. Problem was, the call screener put through the winner of the FIRST puzzle who was still on hold to give her info.

To add onto that..after they realized she was the last puzzle's winner, they put her on hold, and put through two or three more people..who still couldn't get the answer, even though the right answer had already been given.

Seriously...really poor knockoff of a poor show to begin with. Danny Woodburn looked like he wanted to put a gun in his mouth. So did we.

I'm gonna take Mark's "Lame" and add an "Ugh" to it. Granted, I haven't seen this show the whole way through (and don't intend to), but from what I have seen...

I think the wrong show was criticized for its production values (re: Melman's rant on PlayMania). These are just plain...crappy. No better word to describe on my part.

Let's fix up Woody Paige's post a little:

I haven't seen MMM yet, and based on this thread I'm one of the lucky ones.  I've been ending some of my weeknights with Adult Swim lately, if you think MMM is going to change that, then You Don't Know J...oops, wrong Paul Reubens alter ego. :-)

Still haven't seen a full episode (I prolly will eventually), just the clip on Youtube. All I wanna know is...

You mean to tell me that 900 numbers still EXIST?!

Callbacks for MM are plentyful. For one show, I entered 8 times, got 5 callbacks, and got on the show twice (but didn't win anything). Still, it's nice to have a show that I can watch/play on the Pacific Feed.
