I watched this 1st episode in amazement back in April of 2001. when every other show looked like the Price is Right, this one was pitch black and quiet; every other audience was like Let's Make a Deal, but this one was silent; instead of a smiling Pat Sajak, it was Anne Robinson. 😮 It was extraordinary in every way. I was hooked and still am a huge fan. Who's as useless as an ashtray on a motorcycle? 😂😂😂
