And Anthony Anderson probably deserves an Emmy nomination for eventually getting Tyson under control. (Let it be said that I understand Kevin's view, but on "Mike Tyson Mysteries" he is undoubtedly presented as a supreme moron--which, of course, he doesn't realize he's being presented that way--so I can't complain there.)
As for "Truth," I am not one of those who demand that it has to be done just the way Bud Collyer did it, but you don't need to mess around with a game structure that works (and that includes having the panel freestyle their questions rather than each getting an amount of time). In addition, I did not want hear at the climax of the last game of each show (where the Central Character was going to do a stunt) Anderson saying, "Will the real [name] please stand up...after the break?" Damn you, Chris Tarrant, damn you to hell. Couldn't wrapping up the game and then saying "and we'll see [stunt] after these words from our sponsors" be enough of a hook instead of one of the most annoying of contemporary game show/reality comp cliches?
