And if PAX still won't renew BtC, there's always ABC Family!

There's also Animal Planet and Court TV, but they're not gonna run it, either.

[quote name=\'ChuckNet\' date=\'Jul 27 2003, 04:20 PM\'] Yeah, it could work in that regard...BtC rarely saw a grand total of over $10K, at least until mid-season, when they added the "Golden Ticket" that doubled a team's cash if grabbed. [/quote]
 And even at that, I haven't seen any team win over $3000 in cash (excluding golden ticket wins)

The big money wins seem to stem from one or two big prizes.

But, then again, I don't watch the show that often.

 And there's MTV, Nickelodeon, E!, VH-1, Discovery, TLC, BET, TNN, TNT, Cartoon Network, Oxygen, Food Network, Comedy Central, FX, etc., etc., etc.

Point is, what would make those two cable networks in particular air BTC?  ABC Family makes a small amount of sense, but Animal Planet and Court TV makes none whatsoever.

Don was just trying to make a point through humor.

 You see, that's the terrible thing about the written medium.  Words on a screen can be interpreted many different ways.  Now if he had an emoticon, I may have gotten it.  But I thought he was serious.

Oh, dear.

Aw, heck, that's okay. I just come here to read a little bit and have a good time. Is there an emoticon for \"having a twinkle in my eye\"?

 No, but sometimes I wonder if there shouldn't be one for \"having yer head up yer ass...\" ;)

[quote name=\'TonicBH\' date=\'Jul 26 2003, 08:01 PM\'] Either GSN or Syndication. At least with Syndication you could try to add more glitzier prizes. Maybe a car? That'd be cool. [/quote]
 Ah yes - a car flying around inside the swirling whirlwind - that'll save it. :-$  (that's my \"it's a joke\" emoticon)
