I use to watch a lot of game shows when I had a preview of the Game Show Network for a month for free, haha. I loved watching Pyramid! I don’t know why, but it was just so entertaining and well, a great game show. I do like the game shows that are on every night too, such as Wheel of Fortune, Family Feud, Price is Right and Jeopardy. I love watching the “Kids” or “Teen” Jeopardy though, it makes me feel smart when I know the answers, haha. How many times have I watched Jeopardy and I would be asking my sister, “How in the world do they know that?” Jeopardy is a truly smart game show and well, I’m surprised at how much all the contestants know! The Weakest Link was great, haha, I don’t remember the hosts name, but I do remember her voice and her glasses.

The title of this post if very misleading since he is obviously only paying $1 million if he gets enough followers. However, you’ve also misrepresented what he said with your “there’s a catch” line. There is no catch. He said even if he doesn’t get a million followers he will still give a dollar for every follower he has by December 31, 2009. If he has 500,000 followers he’ll pay $500,000.

And you’re wrong that it’s a bad deal for him. First of all the donation is a huge tax write-off. Second, he’s getting huge PR from this right now and will continue to do so once he actually makes the donation. Then, on top of that, if you calculate the benefits he can get from having a million Twitter followers, it’s a huge win for him and Livestrong and cancer research.

He’s over 100,000 right now and I’m quite sure he’ll hit a million by the end of the year. Ashton Kutcher added nearly 3 million in a few months and no one followed him because it was for a good cause.
