[quote name=\'KWJCDon\' date=\'Mar 3 2004, 09:30 AM\'] Sounds like an updated version of 50 Grand Slam to me. [/quote]
Actually it sound more like the UK show but without all-time game-show champions, which is good AFAIC.
Why they are electing to call it "64 Grand Slam" is a mystery, though, what with there being 16 contestants and a grand prize of $512K.
(Which, being a factor of 2, suggests to me that the prize money doubles. So the final winner gets 512K, second place gets 256K, the two third place finishers get 128K, and the four fifth place finishers get 64K. That doesn't work either...still comes up a round short. Unless they're suggesting you have to win at least one game to finish in the money.)
