What were the millions of people who were still watching SMtM watching it for when it was cancelled?

Millions?!

"Two" is plural.

But two is a lot less than millions.

IIRC, in the video for the spring shows, they had someone in a "cash cube"-like wind machine with balls flying around...they probably have to grab a certain number of balls, and every gold one adds a case...[/quote]
Not quite. They grab ONE of the balls swirling around them, and inside the ball is a number indicating how many Million Dollar Cases will be put in play. Why a wind machine you ask, since they can't tell one ball from another until it's opened? See, there you are thinking logically again, instead of submitting to the spectacle that is DOND.

Because watching a contestant flail wildly at empty air is Good Television.

The Aussie's had their first winner in June 2004, followed by their second winner in September 2007 but it was a celebrity playing for a home viewer.

And they came close to having a second civilian winner sometime in 05...a contestant had the $200K case and held onto it all the way through, but opted to sell it after getting the final offer of the game.
