Game shows are the second worst thing on the television behind the scourge that it is reality TV. Game shows give the great unwashed a chance to rise above it all and win life changing prizes for the purposes of entertaining the masses and making them both envy and hate you at the same time. Who among us hasn’t laughed when some uppity scrote throws away a grand’s worth of scratchcards by failing to answer a question correctly? It’s not healthy, is it?
