The Resume

    (June 22, 2010-July 20, 2010)
    Hosted by Chris Jericho
    Aired on ABC
    Premise: Contestants must answer a series of questions before their prizes on a conveyor belt are dropped from a ten-story building

Why Downfall might be annoying:

    It's basically 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?' meets 'Conveyor Belt of Love.'
    Even if a contestant passes the third round, his or her prizes are still at risk of being tossed down the building.
    Jericho claims the conveyor belt is the 'largest ever seen on TV.'
    Why would any fool want to destroy valuable items during a recession?
    The final round involves the contestant being placed on the belt.
    At the end of the game, the contestant, who is attached to a cord, is dropped (but is not harmed when he or she reaches the bottom).
    The show's production company is the same one behind 'American Idol.'

Why Downfall might not be annoying:

    It aired right after the ever popular 'Wipeout!'
    Unlike the other prime time game shows, it doesn't take itself too seriously.
    It is a fun show to watch with the family.
    It's more challenging than 'Millionaire' or 'Jeopardy!.'
    If you succeed, you win the prizes left on the belt in addition to the prize money.
