lack of big winners


This must be making CBS a butt load of money. So many are losing on the $100,000 question so CBS is only handing out a $1000 or two on the show.

"Yawn, boring. What else is on?" is a question that a lot of viewers are starting to ask, apparently - CBS has put "Power of 10" on hiatus. New primetime episodes of "The Price is Right" will replace it starting next month.

Good luck to the Aussies, who just started their own version of "Power of 10" - the first question on their version of the show is worth just $100, with $1 million as the top prize for getting that one-in-eleven-chance final question right. Snore.

as a former contestant on the power of 10, i can tell you that the gameshow is much harder than it looks on t.v..thats if you even get the chance to play for the actual money. There is a reason why you have the chance to win so much money, 10 million because its almost impossible to get there, giving that the questions are merely guesses. You can only guess correct so many times before you crap out and lose everything.

Yeah, its a pretty big flaw. Stupid really. The UK have a gameshow like it but its a comedy panel show that makes it funny rather than just watching people lose money..they never had.
