From B&C ... "Catch 21" gets a second season.

Never having watched the show (yet), I will step aside for further discussion.

They goofed on one fact: the Power Chip, which they tout as a "new feature for season 2", was actually in place for the 1st season as well.

I think the "new feature" to make the end game "easier" is giving them an extra power chip for winning the game.  Last season you got a Power Chip for winning each round.  Although if you won the last round you got a Power Chip, so it was essentially getting a power chip for winning the game before.  You're getting two Power Chips off the bat for winning the game, basically.

The other changes are this new logo, a new set/look, and an audience larger than the random dozen or so people they could drag in last season.

I'm happy for Merrill Heatter that he has a successful show in his hands again and I'm happy for me that my Mikki fix will continue.

Dozen? Pshaw!

There were forty people there, at least.
You're in a room. You're wearing a silly hat.
There are letters on the floor. They spell "NOPE".

I would've kept the minimum Power Chip count in the bonus round at one. I'm not sure if they're going to keep the Season 1 theme song, though.

The new logo looks like it came straight out of DoND...

Any bets on the letter or number the logo will zoom into? :)

I first thought Power of 10, but looking at the font (all the way down to the orange dots), I agree...

I disagree.  I think the logo looks more like the good Temptation from Australia.  I can't wait to see the new set and bonus game though.

I see the logo and wait for Jack Bauer to jump out and start shooting people.

Ah, the forgotten spinoff, Catch 24. :)
