Depressing Awkward Jerry Springer Style Game Show

This is the worst game show ever created. The contestants are asked questions that they had been previously asked under a polygraph machine - which aren't that reliable as you know. Then the game show host, who acts judgmental and arrogant, asks the questions and sets the contestant and family/friends up by asking a simple question relating to the game show question first and then leads into the game show question.

Then, they have dramatic lights and music and a LOT, I mean a LOT of pauses and dead silence. They go to commercial break and then they repeat the last three minutes of the show from before the break and then there's another fake dramatic pause of the contestant THINKING about their answer.

WHAT IS THERE TO THINK ABOUT??? YOU KNOW WHAT QUESTIONS ARE COMING UP. THEY'VE BEEN ASKED OF YOU BEFORE!!!!!! They reveal things about the contestant that can break families and relationships apart and the game show host is such a dork and is so judgmental during the entire game show. He even says "some things are better left unsaid" - um, if you think that way, then WHY are you hosting and supporting a show where things ARE said? This show will be canceled and lives will be ruined in the process. And the sad thing is that after they've revealed HORRIBLE things about these people (affairs, stealing, cheating, lying, drug use, etc.) some don't even win any money so they did it all for nothing.

The same idiots that go on the Jerry Springer show go on this show. It's the same exact thing. People reveal things to their loved ones that they didn't know and that ruin their relationship and trust. It's not an uplifting game show. It's not a game show that I would EVER be on.
