Occasionally we’ll order pizza or Mexican food for dinner and have a picnic in the living room while we watch something on the DVR. Most often it’s one of our many hours of recorded “Minute to Win It” episodes, because…well, because it’s a cool show.
It’s also a very dramatic show. The other night it went to a commercial break with the host, Guy Fieri, promising that the upcoming segment featured such-and-such contestants taking on “a challenge you will NEVER forget.”
Our son frowned at the TV, then looked at us.
“They say that every time,” he said. “But I’ve forgotten pretty much all of it.”
You’re not fooling us, TV game show producers.
