[quote name=\'zachhoran\' date=\'Nov 8 2005, 10:59 PM\']It's cheap to produce, and PAX needs shows that are cheap to produce. PAX has to get some credit for taking a chance on new traditional game shows, something we've seen less of from larger networks these days.

Balderdash I could understand with the celebrities, but could On the Cover be any more expensive than STYD?
I don't think any of the shows gave away cash, but for the most part, OTC's "prizes" was stuff from the Time Life music/video library and the bonus trip. Prize budget was prolly, what, $2,000 an episode? Hell, STYD's bonus round is more than that just from the prizes the contestants run around to pick up, not counting the trip they offer.
