Money Drop producers first stood by their answer and refused to acknowledge even an ambiguity. After public pressure mounted, producers admitted an ambiguity and invited the spurned contestants back to play from question No. So the Murrays might have found themselves a rather shady and unsympathetic defendant. So in other words, it was a pretty standard reality liability waiver.
The Murrays also were provided a document of written rules for the show, which were subject to change by the producers, either verbally or in writing, at any time, including during the taping of the show.
And then the producers allegedly promised there would be no trick questions. Well, that must have been a relief.
More on that below. He has sensibly dedicated significant portions of their complaint to explaining why they should be allowed to sue the producers of Million Dollar Money Drop at all, and why they can bring their claim in state court, when the contract they signed pretty much says the opposite. And for that, their lawyer has gotten creative. Normally, in a case involving a written contract which will often expressly disclaim any oral promises not made in the contract itself , a plaintiff is hard-pressed to bring a claim on the basis of what else they were told — wink wink, nudge nudge — on the side.
This, they say, amounts to fraud on the Murrays, and on the viewing public. Did you know Edit. User reviews 3 Review. Top review. I love Kevin Pollak's work but this is not the vehicle for him. It was quite clear he was just going through the motions, delivering his repetitive lines with all the enthusiasm of a turtle. Sorry Kevin. Go back to feature films, please. The game is unfortunately too predictable and the speed of the game how long can you draw out 7 questions?
The only positive thing was seeing people face to face with millions of dollars and watching the way they handled it, gingerly at first and then roughly as time ran out on the clock.
While watching it, I could only imagine that all of the couples on the show will spend the rest of their lives repeatedly reminding each other of the mistakes they made on the show. I don't ever want to watch this show again. Details Edit. Million Pound Drop Game Rules Object of the Game: To be the team with the most money left after answering eight multiple-choice questions.
Divide into two teams. One team may have an extra player if playing with an odd number. Separate the question cards into three piles Red 4-answer cards, Blue 3-answer cards and Yellow 2-answer cards. Put these piles into their slots in the plastic game tray. The cards have a different category on each side. The Category heading is printed at the top of the card above the question.
The letter of the correct answer A, B, C or D is printed below the question. The possible ANSWERS for that category are on the other side of the card, so that the Host can read the question off the back of the card while the Players can see the possible answers on their side.
If any of the Playing team has played one side of a question card previously, their team must play the questions on the other side of the card.
The team with the youngest member is the first "Player". The other team is the first "Host". Turn the Drop Table to face the playing team with the 40 money bundles in front of it.
