Shatner interview in Time Magazine

When asked why Show Me the Money was cancelled, Shatner says its because the player was forced to play until the rules said he had to go. He continued to say that the fun is watching a contestant get comeuppance when he gets too greedy.

Here's the link. It's 10 questions for William, and only one addresses the show.

Shatner's reasoning is the LAST thing that was wrong with that pile of Shat.
"They're both Norman Jewison movies, Troy, but we did think of one Jew more famous than Tevye."

Now celebrating his 22nd season on GSF!

Because when I want to hear an expert opinion about the quality of a game show, I turn to T.J. Hooker himself.
This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.
Stay tuned for all the obsessive-compulsive fun of Words Have Meanings.

I'd ask Lee Majors instead. At least he hung out with Markie Post a lot.
