Too son. I still grieve that we didn't get season 3

Madden was good in the Medici Netflix show as well

Vastly mediocre

So with the US version, six categories are presented at the start of a round - each category has five questions. In the first round, the clues are worth 200, 400, 600, 800, and 1000. The higher the $ amount, the more difficult the clue.

Someone might say "Annual Events for $400"

They'll be read "The largest U.S. independent film festival, it showcases new talents & movies each January in Utah"

Anyone can buzz in. Whoever buzzes in first can answer.

This happens until time runs out or the board is finished.

One of the clues on the board is a daily double - they can bet any amount they want on this question. They are the only person who can answer the clue - no need to buzz in.

After the Jeopardy round finishes, they go to the Double Jeopardy round - same deal, except the dollar amounts are doubled and there are two daily doubles.

After that finishes, everyone who has a positive amount of money gets to go to the Final Jeopardy round. These questions tend to be harder than any of the others in the game. They are shown a category, such as "Historic Names" and then they must write down bets (I think when filming, they get something like 5 minutes to do the math and figure out how much they should bet). After that, they are read a clue (such as "DNA from 2 living descendants of Anne of York was used to identify the remains of this man") - after 30 seconds have passed, their electronic pads disable and they cannot write anything else. The host starts with whoever entered with the lowest and reads their response. If they answered incorrectly, the hose says they are wrong, followed by how much they lost. If they answered correctly ("Who is Richard III") - the host states that they are correct, how much they bet, and what their final score is. Whoever has the most is the champion of the day and goes onto the next day. The contestant with the second most gets $2000, and the third place gets $1000.

If they die, they go to a tiebreaker round - a category is shown and then a clue is read. Whoever buzzes in first and answers it correctly goes to the next show.

I’d rather Richard work on the supposed season 2 of that show instead of this imo.

Play with your speakers set to loud! The soundtrack his amazing.

The West Wing was one of the most egregious violations of the trope, especially since the first season ended with a huge cliffhanger. I am glad that I was able to binge it my first viewing

Priyanka has a huge following. People will definitely tune in for her.

>on which NBC bet it's prestige future

My recollection is that NBC didn't really bet anything on it, and signaled very early on that they'd given up on it. they did no promo, and cancelled it almost immediately. If they wanted to have a prestige future they should have alt least tried a little bit.

You’re underestimating how massive the Russos and priyanka chopra are in India. I think this will be one of the biggest shows on Amazon.

It made perfect sense to me, and apparently a lot of other people judging by these comments. I think it’s a “you” problem if you didn’t understand the ending.

Last of us did not do it this way in the game. It was DLC that was released after the original game. It was set in the same timeline of the show, but the difference is that when you play the DLC you already know how the story goes, so it’s not as frustrating as the show is for non-gamers.

Sebastian Stan was in The Covenant a couple of years before Kings. Just saying. I know it isn’t everyone’s cup of tea lol.

I watched it since Alex’s very first show until his last. It’s a family tradition spanning four four generations now. Ken is not an obvious choice at all, which is why it’s not working out. reddit just loves him so all other opinions don’t matter. pointless of me to even bring it up in this hateful echo chamber.

I loved Kings. It deserved better and probably would have done better on another network or service like HBO or something. It was ahead of its time.

Season 1 had its moments, but season 2 was fucking gold throughout.

Seriously how much more money does Jennifer Salke have to burn before Bezos fires her ass? Does she have blackmail photos on him? Did he get drunk at a party and touch her inappropriately or what?

Is that on Tubi?

Just throwing it out there that I actually liked the ending for the most part. You might too! It’s possible that the legend of its terrible ending is exaggerated. It’s also possible that the show holds up better when you’re binging it (because that’s also how I watched it). Or you might still hate it, who knows.

From my first comment in this thread:

> I didn’t know it was a reboot of a lawyer series going into the first season, so it was odd when what seemed to be a detective series pivoted to being a lawyer series halfway through.

If one went into the first season not already knowing who Perry Mason was, which was a decent number of people, the pivoting was quite odd. If this season has the lawyering and detective aspects more intertwined, that would be interesting, fitting.

I honestly don't think it's really meant to be

I watched it for the first time 2 years ago, knowing that the ending was super controversial and preparing for the inevitable downward spiral.

What I actually got was, like…a slight decrease in quality for the last couple seasons? But overall it was still quite compelling, it DID explain almost all of its mysteries despite what people say, and I liked the ending. Go figure. Maybe let OP experience it for themself.
