Kit, I like it, but I have a weird sense of humor. It is hosted by Ben and a comedienne named Nancy Palmetto. Jimmy Kibbles and Bits used to be the comedian, but he has his own show now. In the first round, they bring in 3 contestants who compete against each other answering questions in categories with funny titles. The dollar amounts are fairly small, $50 to 150. In the second round, Ben competes against the two high scorers, and the questions rise in value to $200 to 500. Then, the winner of that one goes one on one with Ben on ten questions from an isolation booth for a possible $5000. They beat Ben about one out of every seven tries.

The comedienne and Ben make fun of the contestants throughout the show. And the humor is often raunchy.

Actually, I like the show. I only wish the money wasn't so cheesy. Only the Comedy Channel would have "Who wants to be a $5000aire?" <g>
