I'm a bit turned off by the $1 million concept, but it is what it is.
If this goes as tournament mode, just don't make it anticlimactic like Donnymid. Have the contestants earn their big money...would be great to see this recorded at the Sullivan Theater, but then I remembered that Michael Davies loves his audience in the round sets. ;-) |

I guess its a sign of the times (still) that they're going for $1 Million, but its still a turnoff. I was expecting a $100,000 payoff in tournament play myself.
The one thing that I am hoping for is the judging to be consistent and the celebrities to play more like Cullen, Cook, Lawrence, and Polic the II this time around. One can only hope. |

The ticketing site for the program has four taping dates scheduled and confirms that it will indeed be The $1,000,000 Pyramid. While I trust the show in Davies's hands, $1M, even at the end of a tournament, is still a LOT for daytime Pyramid. I tried to get tickets, but the site says I need to submit a photo. There was a time when they didn't care what you looked like to sit in the audience. Hopefully I can get the tickets somehow, since I live in the NYC area. |

Not sure, but that's the first thing I thought of. /Unless you have to now be pretty enough to simply sit on camera. :-P |

I would have been okay with a $250,000 tournament myself.
