Because even if you hardly understand English, you can still recognize the qualities of an effective game show.  And frankly, looking at the whole of the Hispanic game show library over the last few years, they've been putting out consistently better product than English speaking syndicated sources.

Yes, Monty is a consultant, though I'm not sure if he is credited as such.

Yeah, he used to spend his time on the LMaD set composing, but now, he's decomposing. :-D

Agreed.  I don't know too much about it, but they seem to have the LMAD formula down right and it's done quite well!!!
