I really hope the actual show won't be staged as this one was ... If they only would of told us the truth... or paid us the 64.00 like the fill-in actors received. I spent a lot of time on my costume like an idiot.

The invitation & tkts said we could poss be elig to win cash or prizes, but on arrival after waiting in line for 3 hrs, we were told we cldn’t win prizes, but could poss win cash. Bummed, but ok w/that. BUT, then ALL of the folks picked by Wayne were PAID actors (one who got $64). Then at the end, he gave a few non-actors audience folks money for items they had, but the show employees took all the money back from them! What a farce. They wouldn’t let anyone leave either for over 5 hrs! I do hope the show makes it on air, but we were treated very badly by the producers and folks were really pissed!

We were lied to and told we would be able to win cash and prizes. I asked at every turn what the possibiilites of that would be and always received a "they will be awarding cash and prizes, it's up to how well you do in the games, that we cannot gaurantee..." sort of response. Those feel like good odds. I took the gamble. I did not do this to get on tv. I will get there with or without this pathetic show. I DID IT FOR CASH AND PRIZES! We were told at the very last minute that we would not be able to keep any cash or prizes awarded but "to still have fun and play as if we were going to!" ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!???? There was a room full of angry people and I had to take ten showers to shake this experience. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. AWFUL TREATMENT. WE WERE MADE TO WAIT UP TO AN HOUR TO GO TO THE BATHROOM. WE WERE TOLD WE WOULD GET LUNCH -- NADA!!! I left starving... It was an awful experience. We were lied to and told we would be able to win cash and prizes.

I had the unpleasant experience of being there and being mislead and mistreated. Below are quotes from the volleys of email going back and forth between some of us who attended. Until the production company puts a better face towards the public - they will have a hard time filling the audience with anyone OTHER than paid contestants - some of whom were paid, yes...but paid at minimum wage (plus over time - well in excess of the $30 stated in the blog above) <> from aother person in attendance: <> Yet another person <> Yet another person <> It is a decent show and good host – but their “staff” (audience companies and audience coordinators) leaves a lot to be desired.
