Argh! That show is so moronic I can't bear to watch it. Not only are the questions obvious and dumb, but if the contestant doesn't know the answer, he can call someone up and ASK THEM! GRRR!!
And another thing that gets me: why is it that these dumb yokels can win millions for asking the audience their questions, while the contestants on Jeopardy(who actually have a head on their shoulders) usually win around ten thousand dollars? *Sigh*
