Poll for folks:

If I told you there was a game show in the 1990s called "Debt" where the grand prize was to pay off your debt/bills, what would be your response to that be?

I'm making this poll because I've shown the show to a few folks who are not huge game show nerds like me, and they seem flabbergasted at the concept from the get-go

Despite it being (mostly) a mundane Jeopardy! clone.

@Joshi there was a similar game show from a few years ago where the grand prize was paying off student loans

surprisingly the social media reaction seemed to be "wow this has what society is now, huh? we live in hell"

I imagine Debt would've had the same had social media existed in 1997 beyond USENET and IRC
