For those who haven't heard of it, they stick 9 people in an underground bunker. There's 1.5 million dollars to be won but only one person gets it and only if EVERY other person votes for them to get it. The voting is done anonymously of course. Also, if anyone quits the money is cut in half. When they don't come to a decision someone has to get voted off. But that's done by revealing three damaging secrets. (This week's were 1. someone filed for bankruptcy even though they have a $100,000 household income, 2. someone has been detained 3 times for carrying live ammunition, 3. someone was in a mental ward.) Without knowing who the secrets belong to they have to unanimously agree on which is worst and that's the person eliminated. Every second that they're trying to decide the money total goes down.
This show is really cool. Oughta be an interesting study of human nature and group mentality. And I suspect the show will have some more big surprises for the contestants as it goes along.
