Goodbye Show Me The Money
This isn't really a surprise: ABC has canceled the William Shatner game show Show Me The Money.
Even though game shows are all the rage now, especially ones hosted by celebs known for other things (Shatner, Howie Mandel, Bob Saget, Penn Jillette), no one really seemed to care about Show Me The Money, and the ratings for this past week's show were the lowest yet. The network actually ordered more episodes, but they won't be shown either (though I guess we'll have to wait to see how long it takes for the shows to show up on ABC's site, though I bet even that's a long shot).
Did anyone even watch this? I like Shatner, but this held no appeal to me. I fear the same thing about Identity, Jillette's new show. I like Jillette, but this show just seems lame and random. Guessing what other people do for work or what has happened to them by looking at them? Yawn. Looks like Deal Or No Deal, only without the beautiful models and human beings instead of shiny suitcases.
