I really hate the powers that be that control television in America right now! This is beyond FM, but after watching that Youtube clip, I finally "get it"! Do you really think that woman nearing 60 is going to be on an American show of Millionaire?
It's not that "Mastermind", and "Qi" are too smart for an American audience, it's that the people that are capable of such thought, are not attractive for general network TV.
BBC America execs are saying "You can't have Stephen Fry host a game panel show in America, he's an overweight homosexual with a broken nose."
What the idiots at the BBC don't understand, is that those from America who watch BBCA think like the audience that watches from England. Why else would one want to see BBC TV?
BBCA has become very shallow recenty. They never aired the third, and final series of "Ashes to Ashes".
