Gene Hackman Fan posted:you can trademark the term "daily double" and thirty seconds of think music but if another production makes a game show where contestants choose questions from a matrix arranged by subject and difficulty/value with value deducted for incorrect answers, there's not all that much you can do about it. Wasn't there a mid-90s show called Debt that got angry letter from Jeopardy? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debt_(game_show) Youtube link for timestamp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PfzDj8a1UM&t=296s They changed that round for Season 2, so apparently it was a strong enough letter.

Gene Hackman Fan posted:lemme show you this: The Japanese wikipedia page goes into a bit more detail. Basically, they couldn't do the live answer displays that were done on Family Feud in kana, so they created their own endgame. If the total score is 60 points, 1 person goes to Hawaii. 70 points, 2 people. 80 points for 3 people, 100 points for 4 people, and 120 points to have all five people go. All of the answers count (you can quickly see them as they scroll by), but the top three are given on display to show the audience at home. If the score passes the threshold, the icons light up, and the appropriate number of hats are given one. Unfortunately, in the clip, the last guess was not enough to get to 120, so she was given a pennant to send off the others on their trip. But that's neat, and thanks for sharing.
