Part of me likes the idea a Bullseye round, with a $15,000 start up, then $1,000-5,000, thus allowing all five to play and win up to $30,000.
But then, I thought about it. JOHN: Okay, Jackson family, you will play for $17,000! JACK JACKSON: But last year, the families played for $20,000! JOHN: Recession. Now shut up and get me two family members! However, a $20,000 base bank, with $1,000-4,000 works, with just four players. Perhaps everyone but the captain, then when the first survey round starts, start with the captain? |

I thought about this type of scenario back when "The New Family Feud"had Bullseye. The longtime prize for "Fast Money"was $10,000 but the bankrolls started at $5,000.. |

How about a base amount of $20,000, with all five questions worth a flat $2,000?

If it doesn't pan out, remind them that they've won the $20K (cue audience cheers) and are coming back next time. Which now makes winning $20K feel like a loss. Fail. Oh, puh-leaze. Between the hyper contestants and the amped up audience, no one will tell the difference. |

Oh, puh-leaze. Between the hyper contestants and the amped up audience, no one will tell the difference. I could not be less surprised to strongly disagree with you. Yeah, it kinda reminds me of Wheel of Fortune. Contestants win the bonus round and take home $25K, yet they still never get really excited reactions because they feel like they could have won more. Same situation applies to FF. |
