I watched it for the first time last night. The second person voted 
off had some rather, er.., nasty things to say about one of the 
contestants. The hostess ask that particular contestant, Eric in his 
20s, why he voted for Carole in her 40s (50s?). He said that she 
wasn't answering any of her questions correctly and that he could 
forgive her for not knowing Carson Daly was the host of an MTV 
program because it was relatively recent, but she should have known 
Merv Griffin developed two game shows instead of Milton Berle (sp?). 
In her interview, she said that she hopes Eric will be voted off next 
because he's a "vindictive, little man" lol.
