Home viewers play along with pre-printed game cards that are available from the network website just before each episode airs, and are also eligible to win prizes. The show was expected to return for a five-episode run during the week of December 17, 2007, but on November 13, 2007, ABC decided to replace it instead with its new game show, Duel. In 2008, the show was cancelled and was afterward shopped to other networks.
