First off, I must say that this is a fun game show. Also, I haven't seen every episode. However, I do know the show very well. Every time I've watched it, I've had a lot of fun playing along and watching. This makes me long to be a contestant. The thing I like most about it are the questions. Despite the fact that I don't know that many answers, I still have fun playing along. I hope that the Game Network keeps it on so I can play along and watch for a while. If that happens, I will be really happy. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that I'll always remember this show in my memory forever. Now, in conclusion, I hope that you catch it one day before it goes off the air for good.

I feel so impressed now! We just got another $100,000 winner! This winner is Maria Laye who survived 5 drop zones who won $2,000 on the main winnings and saved 8 seconds on the 60-second round. The answers were "Tick, tack, toe" and what people step on when they are riding a horse. Maria said tack for the right answer. She got it right and before making her decision, she said, "I came with nothing. If I leave with nothing, I'll have nothing." Then, before pulling the final handle (not after Mark asks if she wants to go for the $100,000), she said, "I'm crazy."

OK, we have a good host and a good announcer, and a HORRIBLE show. It's good that it's a quiz show, but the "falling down the hole" baloney is just that, baloney. And the set is cruddy too. It's darker than the "Weakest Link" set, and I didn't even think that was possible! The ads that Game Show Network runs for the show are horrible too. Whoever concocted this cr@p should be dropped down a trapdoor that they can't get out of!

"RUSSIAN ROULETTE" recently premiered on The Game Show Network much to my delight when the teasers for it showed different people 'falling' through open holes in the floor. It looked like a laugh riot.Unfortunately, after a few 'viewings' of this boring and rather insipid game show, one would only assume that someone with absolutely no clue might have thought up the premise for this particular game show that has been relegated to the 'late hours' of the night on The Game Show Network.The premise is very weak. Four contestants are aligned on four separate circles out of eight that form a complete circle (the layout resembles that of a rotary telephone). Each contestant has a lever that they pull should they answer a question correctly and a lighted circle will rotate around the circles until it slows down to a stop on a random circle. Should anyone but the lucky contestant who pulled the lever be unfortunate to be standing on that particular circle that the light comes to rest on, a trapdoor beneath them will open up and they will fall (presumably onto a set of cushions).What seemed like complete hilarity during the teasers for "RUSSIAN ROULETTE" will only result in disappointment and complete boredom as you slowly make your way through 30 minutes of inane multi-choice questioning usually regarding pop culture as three people will ultimately fall through their trapdoors. Mark Walberg (not to be confused with the singer/actor of the same name) makes for a very boring and by-the-numbers host who some may recognize as being the host of FOX's sleazy reality show, "TEMPTATION ISLAND".Much like other game shows of its ilk, there is not enough excitement contained in the show to keep the average viewer interested. The cash prize is quite small and the questions asked are so extraordinarily dumbed-down that a five year old child would find them to be extremely easy to answer.I give "RUSSIAN ROULETTE" about three months before it goes the same way as shows such as "HOLLYWOOD SHOWDOWN" and "GREED" went before it... down the trapdoor!
