NOW TV'S ATM GAME SHOW!

So not only did I get to live out the unreal of appearing on a crazy Asian game show but I also got to guest co-host one while in Hong Kong. The show's called ATM and no, I did not miraculously learn how to speak Cantonese in 5 days but I did memorize one line in the dialect (“I’m very happy to be here today”) which, surprise, doesn’t actually get you too far, so I was allowed to speak English for the rest of the show with the other hosts translating while enthusiastically waving around different colored plastic hands. Confused yet?

ATM is like Who Wants to be a Millionaire except viewers at home who subscribe to the show actually play along with special remote controls in real time and get the chance to win the huge money prize that can vary from $25,000 to $100,000 depending on the amount of correct answers. The show airs live Monday to Thursday at 10:30pm with a rotating cast of hilarious hosts who present the questions and answers. The choice of answers corresponds to a color- red, yellow, green, or blue. Hence, the colored plastic hands we waved around like mad. Silly? Yes. Fun? Hell yeah.
