Exactly how I felt. It didn't offend me, and I smiled when the guy nailed Name Your Neighbors to win everyone a scooter. Johnny Vaughn was your typical British presenter working in the US.
Using the word "game" in the show's promotion is rather disingenuous, though, since aside from Name Your Neighbors, I didn't see a single actual game be played. I saw a guy tell someone to torch his Birkenstocks, and I saw a pretaped segment where some football players did a Musical Chairs thing, but I didn't see a whole lot of game.
I'm surprised to hear that the ratings bombed, tho. There really isn't much on in that time slot, and I figured something simple and unoffensive would have gone over well, since I figured that's what got Dancing With The Stars going.
