Jason Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 I'm not sure when the show will start, they haven't even got a writer for it yet. But Charlie Sheen's next TV show will be titled, I shit you not, "Anger Management".

Bengals1181 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 has anyone been watching "Take the Money and Run" on ABC? I've seen the first two episodes and its been pretty good so far. They give 2 people a briefcase with $100,000 in it (its not really in there). They have an hour to hid it anywhere they want. After the hour is up, they get taken into custody by two detectives. The two detectives (also contestants, but real detectives) have 48 hours to find the briefcase. They're also helped by 2 professional interrogators who are part of the show and try and crack the 2 people during the show. If the detectives find the money within 48 hours they get to keep it. If not, the 2 people who hid it get to keep it. Week 1 the detectives one, lastnight the hiders wons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people were really smart last night and kept their mouths shut. They didn't lie that much, but didn't give them anything to go on. What I don't understand is why they were so focused on the 2nd stop and not the 1st one. I would think once they went back to the gas station a 2nd time, they should have realized that the suitcase was not going to be there. San Fran was week 1, Miami was week 2. I didn't watch the preview for next week (I try to avoid watching previews on certain shows to be surprised). "Franklin and Bash" got renewed for a 2nd season next summer. This is Breckin Meyer, "Zack Morris" and Malcolm McDowell. Very entertaining series. What worries is "Raising the Bar" which is the same type of genre didn't make it past season 2. I hope this series keeps going for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't think it would be enough, and had they not ended up hiding it at someone's house they didn't know, it probably wouldn't have been. My wife and I really like Franklin and Bash. I also was a Raising the Bar fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I didn't think two stops would do it either. I would have stopped a lot more just so the cops would have to re-trace more steps and that would take more time. The flip side, had they found the right person at the gas station and the cops would have found out that the girl didn't have the briefcase at that point, the cops would have known between which streets to at least try and question people.

Bengals1181 Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 IMO last night's team was doomed from the get go. They didn't call anyone, they only made one stop, and they didn't even hide it very well. My wife and I decided that the best thing to do would be to call someone and have them meet you somewhere and to bring someone else. Then, you give it to that 2nd person to hide, but never acknowledge that this person was present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I think the idea of not calling or spending money was a good one, but for someone that claims to know Miami, she wasn't thinking with a clear head. If the girls had made multiple u-turns and stopped a few times, it would have made things harder. The fact it barely took them more than 24 hours is saying something too. I doubt you could pass the briefcase to someone multiple times. I would like to see what the official rules are for this show though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys had a great plan and there was no way in hell the cops were finding it. I hated that the cops won. They didn't do shit, and got $100K for it. I also really didn't like that (IMO) Mary abused the rules. Instead of treating Bo like a real suspect, she tried to manipulate his perspective of the game by pretending that she was going to screw over the other cops. Something that would never happen in real life. IMO, that's totally not fair, and thankfully Bo didn't fall for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
