thing that annoys me most about this show is that more often than not it only matters who wins the final round. if it were me I'd just fuck around until then

pretty sure that's by design. you don't really want the last round to not matter

yeah but if a team wins the first three rounds it's kinda fucked that the other family can win by just winning one round. feels very 'next basket wins'

like on Jeopardy they have a million useless Final Jeopardies where the leader is more than double the second and third place contestant and could wager $0 and still win!

isn't there some kind of tiebreaker in that case? look I agree it ain't a good system but also it's not really a serious gameshow, in fact I'm pretty sure I've seen BTS clips which imply that if a contestant fucks up something on taping they let them change answers. also Final Jeopardy is at the end of the show which maybe they don't mind if people skip but the 3x round is kinda in the middle of the show

I just want Congress to take a look at this, that's all

this is why i think it should be "best 3 out of 5 rounds" instead
