If you have a central gimmick it needs to be visually interesting. Thought Rolling In It did a similar concept better yet that was axed with higher ratings.

I could argue "visually interesting" is relatively recent. Quite a few games of yesteryear didn't really have any interesting visuals, yet somehow managed to run for years. Maybe the audience has changed so much and now have the attention span of a gnat so it has to look pretty to be memorable.

Perhaps we're just in the space between a rock and a hard place with gameshows at the moment. If they look pretty, they don't last. If they don't look pretty, they also don't last. What do you do?
