Master Minds

I can't believe how good she is. For several reasons. She rapid fire shoots the questions. I've seen the shows that must miss her because half the time to answer was taken by the question. Brooke deserves another Emmy!

The show is either fixed, or at least heavily scripted.

The little trivia bits, how would you have those ready to go if you didn't know the questions beforehand?

Also, the Master Minds never lose. It's boring.

This fast paced trivia contest is one of the best in this genre. Hosted by the beautiful and talented Brooke Burns, the show has three contestants vie against each other while three trivia experts simultaneously compete against each other.

The two highest scoring contestants face off to determine who wins $1,000 and the chance to play against the highest scoring expert. The final competition pits the contestant against the expert for $10,000.

One thing that makes this so watchable is the way they switch up the game play each round. Also, the questions are both challenging and interesting.

The experts are unquestioningly among the best. Any contestant who wins the $10,000 has accomplished something noteworthy.

I was watching one of the episodes today and the question had to do with a roller coaster at Cedar Point and what state it is in. Ken got the answer correct, Ohio. However, he went on to say that Cedar Point was in Dayton, OH. It is actually in Sandusky, about 140 miles away from Dayton.

I'm perplexed by the ability of the Master Minds to "just happen" to have an extra trivia remark after some answers. Is it merely a coincidence that they know extra info about these particular questions and can just toss it out there? It sounds very scripted to me, which would indicate prior coaching about these answers. ??? Otherwise, I love this show!
