From what I've seen, it looks like a neat amalgam of Grand Slam and Russian Roulette, but I don't think it befits the money climb and current other tropery.

Right now I'd have to say keep our fingers crossed for another hit prime-time game. NBC's track record with Christmas week airings of game shows, (DOND, 1 VS 100, and Identity), has been at least good enough, that more episodes of each were ordered after their initial runs.

I'm rooting for this one. I remember seeing a clip of this over the summer, and was pleasantly surprised to find it didn't fit the mold of the primetime game show post-2005.

Still felt like something that should air in syndication for about 1/20 of its budget.
