If you're a member of (The New) GSN TV Nation, there's a survey available now. Log in to give your input on TTD format, set, etc. It could definitely use our intervention.

Unless their “experts with X’s & O’s” bring something incredible to the table, Tic Tac Dough will be mighty dull without champions on long streaks or big rollover pots.

What would you call incredible, Neumann?

And there’s a preview now on YouTube.

Words fail me.

I have plenty of words, but they are shown in different sizes on the gameboard. (God that looks so sloppy).

This show has "iPhone Trivia Game with In-App Purchases" vibes all around. Maybe between matches, we can sit through ads for Royal Match or some other shovelware.

Hopefully, when this goes to air they can get a larger budget so the host can afford to blink.

It looks like a presentation or pilot. I don’t think GSN would suddenly opt for a virtual set for an original.

If I knew, I’d be one of their experts! Starting bottom row middle wouldn’t be it, though.

Why not? The virtual set looked cool.

Whoever posted it just got themselves a copyright strike. Hope it was worth it!

Appeared to be, for lack of a better term, a burner account, with just this and a 30-second snippet of some unnamed word game similar to America Says.

He went to the trouble of blurring out the part where it said not to share this.  It's not like he didn't know what he was doing.

One of these days a leaked TTD pilot will stay on the Internet longer than 3 hours. /s

The set didn’t bother me. Hosting, contestants, and game play defined “robotic.”

There’s so little movement in TTD—contestants and host are in the same fixed positions throughout the game—that you’ve got to have them do something interesting to avoid viewers losing interest. Wink isn’t my favorite all-time host, but he did a great job of keeping viewers involved. (I am not suggesting that he or Tom Bergeron be brought in.)

Oh, that’s what that weird line in the middle of the screen was?

IIRC, it was the same with the Bergeron pilot. Honestly, that's the funniest part of this show's legacy- that someone is so brazenly cavalier about this show that production has now leaked two pilot presentations that made it to us.
