This is part 1 of my episode of GSN's newest original, "Catch 21". I've added annotations so I can give running commentary on the game.

I have an interesting scenario for this game show, There's only two players playing suppose player one has 7 and 4 making 11, player two has 8 and 6 making 14 and player two answers the question correctly and gets a 10, if player two takes the card player two will bust but if the player two passes the card to player one player one will have 21. Is player two screwed any way or can player two pass the card giving player one 21 but cannot freeze and player two can bust player one in the next turn?

Any 21 is an instant win of the round, regardless who gives you the winning card.

This actually happened to a friend of mine on the show - his opponent had to choose between either giving him a 21 or busting herself. She decided to bust herself since the bonus prize was in play. Of course, karma stepped in at that point and my friend won.

@Loogaroo! I just reread your comment and you said HIS oponent had to choose which means your friend won and the person that won on the episode I just watched is a HER. So I guess this couldn't be the episode then. lol

Watch for a contestant named Adam.

Tim, ur crawl is hysterical!! I'm auditioning tomorrow. I'm a plus size chick. I wonder if they''ll tell me to say I'm a bikini model :) Thanks for the entertainment. Any REAL advice for me, email me.

The trick to trying out for a game show is: be yourself, but amplify yourself. Don't be fake - these guys are professionals and know when someone isn't being sincere. But make sure you're revved up and that you're showing them a lot of energy.

@Loogaroo1 was it scary to be on tv?

I actually like the Theme song to this version more than the later version.

Nowadays, GSN only airs season 1 of Catch 21 at 3:00 AM on the weekends.

isn't it a little embarrassing to be told you should act "super-excited"? television manipulations are so weird. Steven ends up like he's been giving drugs which he shouldn't have been taking.

Man, the whole thing has really changed. The set, the podiums, the cards even look smaller.
