About Split Second:
Split Second is based on a format from game show legend Monty Hall where three contestants are asked to decide which of three general interest trivia questions they can answer. The first player to buzz in gets the first pick, and the last player is left to answer whatever is left, which is often the most difficult. The player with the fastest response time and the highest success rate answering questions over the first three rounds advance to the bonus round where their ability to answer a rapid fire series of questions could win the $10,000.

I really like this game now. Like I said the first time, the Game Show Legends Tom Kennedy & Monty Hall would be so proud. RIP!!!

[@fornitegood122jr6]

Tom Kennedy and Monty hall are going to be proud of you Michael

[@cakerbaker9965]

This show is unwinnable at the end, which makes it no fun to watch The final questions are too difficult, too many, in not enough time I’ve yet to see anyone actually win it! Same problem with Joey Fatone’s game show…too difficult at the end, no one ever won

[@RVN1016]

This is a great example of how to make a reboot. Keep the same format, maybe change a couple things to make it current. Love this!

[@rain4est133]

What an amazing comeback for Laronda

[@NEPatriot]

The front game is PURE PERFECTION! Same with the Countdown Round...both played just like the originals and just as fast paced.

[@OneProudBBC]

This is easier than John Michael Higgins' other show I enjoy watching a lot!

[@ccie12933]

I loved this show in its 1970s run, and I'm really impressed with this version - mainly because it's so much like the original. I did like the one change in the countdown round, giving a little more of an advantage to the leader in the main game (as it should be), and John Michael Higgins does Tom Kennedy proud. Great work!

[@accampbell]

What a nice long shot come from behind win!

[@LeotheTiger1234]

That's the brilliance of the Countdown Round.

[@accampbell]

@@LeotheTiger1234 agreed. There isn't much I would tweak. I would just make the points money values and everyone gets to keep what they win in the front game. Other than that this version is good.

[@Scrabblerouser]

I was prepared to complain about all the changes... And then there weren't any! This is very true to the original and the minor changes that were made don't hinder the gameplay. I like the change in the Countdown Round putting more separation between players, because it makes the main game more important. The only things I would say are that I wish they were playing for dollars instead of points (but that's always been a GSN thing), and I wish Higgins were a little quicker with the reading. Maybe that will come as the game evolves. So far, I enjoy it! Well done GSN!

[@Observe..The...Truth...444]

..... He'll be quicker..... I honestly felt like JMH was quick with his reading with this episode...

Reboot and it's the moment of truth

[@matthewbaduria]

This is great,this version is going to be around for a while,Television needs great questions and answers in a good way,and John Michael Higgins is a great choice after America Says.This is the first great reboot to come out of Game Show Network in over a decade.

[@blindsportslover]

For once a reboot is done right. I love this game.

[@jamesgibson5818]

Love this new version I think it’s gonna be a hit

[@actownsend7288]

2nd best part of my week. First part was seeing Sawyer Brown in concert. Higgins is such a smooth operator as a host.

[@TheAverycross]

This great Stefan Hatos/Monty Hall-produced game show classic from the '70s is back! And one of my favorite games as a child. I'm glad that GSN revived "Split Second" because I missed that kind of gameplay. John Michael Higgins does a great job picking up where the late, great Tom Kennedy left off and keeps the game moving smoothly.

[@PREGO1966]

"where Tom left off" you say? I suppose you never heard of the 1 year 1986 that Monty did himself? It was syndicated both here and Canada. The reruns were shown quite a bit in the 90s

[@TheAverycross]

@@PREGO1966 You're right about that! I forgot that Monty Hall did the 1986 revival and it was just as competitive. After all, Mr. Hall *did* co-create "Split Second" with Stefan Hatos and he did a great job continuing the gameplay and action in the same manner that Tom Kennedy did.

[@PREGO1966]

That he did my friend. The amounts went up from "Jim Tom's" day, all answers were on the screen like the current one rather than the occasional verbal and the bonus game was only 1 car. Nonetheless it did well. I just didn't like when he changed the end game. The choosing 1 out of 5 screens, then 4, etc. was more like the 70s one. I do recall the 5 car game was redone on the 86 Hollywood a Squares though and a similar one with 1 car and up to 7 keys was on Just Men

It's the Surface tablet I think and Brooke Burns used the same kind in Master Minds

[@HarlemHyena]

Anyone else notice when a wrong answer is given that clue's dead, even if the question's NOT a 50/50? The previous versions left it open for other players.

[@MikeHL78]

I did notice that; just watched it now. Wish that rule were still in place.

[@zachhoran]

And another throwback to the old version with the wrong answer of Pontiac in the car question

[@andyleclerc3600]

[@jamesstuart5877]

[@kcgreen4702]

Umm… It’s missing the classic theme song and final (auto selection).

[@brockschul3221]

The grand prize should've been a car. And they should be earning money for correct answers to the questions.

[@RickSilas]

The upfront game should be scored in cash & everyone keeps their bank. Just like the original.The winner,then gets an extra $1K bonus-on their secured funds.

[@killerb255]

I agree. As it stands now, points are next to useless.

[@Observe..The...Truth...444]

I agree....... Best to add that on for the next season...... Missing piece of the Original format

[@ClapHurts]

Very good version i hope it stays on for a while. John Michael Higgins is a good host

[@dennislalka7965]

Watch Higgins closely and he is to slow during some phases especially the final round..Watch!

[@HarlemHyena]

The Final Countdown is a great bonus round format; Hell, Split Second actually has a proper bonus round now! If it were still played for a car like the prior versions, I'd sort of mix it with the Winkler-era Hollywood Squares: every right answer would knock a dud key off a rack of 11 (one for every letter in Split Second).

2 questions: 1. How come each correct answer is not worth money like on the first 2 versions (Kennedy/Hall)? 2. How come the winning contestant does not play the bonus round for a new car like on the first 2 versions (Kennedy/Hall)?

[@paulwright6044]

1. The losing players on most (if not all) of the GSN originals go home with nothing. 2. Budget. GSN's top prizes for solo players normally top out at $10K currently. Given the average price of a car (and the taxes players pay on their winnings), cash is the best option.

[@nintendonerdsvideos4727]

Bingo, GSN is super cheap

[@wecantfightgravity]

This is an awesome revival of the classic 1970s & 80s game show. However, I wish this was on ABC (the network that aired the original version of the show). ABC would have given the show a better & bigger budget.

[@Observe..The...Truth...444]

And who knows ABC would have had a set of cars on a bigger stage..... If a contestant were to go to Five games..... Like the old versions of Split Second to win a car

[@wecantfightgravity]

Split seconds michael higgins game show network

[@MaxLovesNascarOfficial]

Does anybody know if America Says will still stream live after this?

[@someguy23475]

It would be better if they gave the answers first, then the question. Buzz in at any time, but it interrupts the question reading for the fastest. Also, unless it’s either/or, yes/no, etc, getting a question wrong leave it open for the others. Yes, just like the Kennedy run. Updating the Countdown Round to 4-6-8 gives more of an advantage to the player in the lead, which I’m fine with. Especially since they no longer play for money (GSN budget issue I’m sure), it’s an incentive to play well during the first two rounds. Couldn’t do the car round due to budget, but the end game isn’t bad. It keeps with the main game. Higgins needs to pick up the pace a little. Monty had the same problem at times. Kennedy was a master. Wish there was an actual theme instead of a short interlude but that’s common these days. Set is blah but the original and the 86 version wasn’t great either. The kept the basics the same which is great.

[@rachll7904]

Totally agree. Higgins speaks WAY too slowly and he pauses in final round.

[@DeshonPorter-pq1fw]

Everything is ok except for the music that I'm used to when I'm watching this game with monti hall.

I have a suggestion. Since they probably can't afford cars, why don't they just keep the $10,000 prize money and add to it five passwords? The winner will choose one of them and apply them to one of the five numbered slots on the board. If they pick the right slot, the board will "unlock," revealing the "$10,000." If not, they will not win the $10,000 and the right slot will be revealed. I think that would be true to the original bonus game of the 1970s.
