I really wanted to like this, but the format of the game leaves much to be desired. The constant commercials and dull conversations in between each question make this fairly grueling to get through. More questions with a faster pace, and two groups per episode or simply a 30-minute run time, would do wonders for this half-baked excuse for a game show. The questions are supposed to be about the person that is secretly "the Hustler", but instead they give a factoid about the person and a simple multiple choice question that is loosely related to the factoid. The questions aren't very high-end trivia, and the contestants are surprisingly lacking in knowledge to provide the correct answers and rack up a sizeable pot of winnings. There isn't much strategy, and the method of eliminating contestants is boring and unfulfilling. This could have been great, given the gorgeous set and the excellent host, Craig Ferguson; but instead this will be a one-season flop that will be forgotten by this summer.… Expand
