Downfall

Standard

Hosted by Chris Jericho and taking place on the roof of a high-rise, ABC’s new gameshow combines the trivia of previous shows such as “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” and “Greed” but combines them with the height of “Fear Factor.”

A contestant must choose a category and then provide a certain amount of answers while a conveyor belt moves prizes, possessions, money, and even people past the contestant. Depending on how quick the questions are answered, the prizes and money can be won, or else replicas go plummeting down off the side of the high-rise. If the contestant cannot respond before the money falls, he or she will also be dropped on a bungee.

Recommended for anyone who enjoyed “Russian Roulette,” “Dog Eat Dog,” or most trivia games.

I give this show 8 stars!
