Beginning in April GSN's Masterminds "Formerly titled Best Ever Trivia Show" will have someone familiar return as a Comeback Kid to GSN and it is none other than... Brooke Burns. Brooke will replace former host Sherri Shepherd in the new season and I am so glad to see Brooke Burns return to GSN because she is not only wonderful but talented as well. Hope this doesn't also mean that a comeback of The Chase will also be in the future at GSN. All I can say is Welcome Back To GSN Brooke and enjoy your success

I happened to see an episode of Masterminds on Youtube this morning and what I saw of it Masterminds is an exact same copy of The Chase and even is played the same as The Chase minus The Cashbuilder round and The Chase part of the game minus Mark Labbett. The questions are even like The Chase's questions but allow the players and the experts to answer like Press Your Luck minus the spins. But at least there is a returning champ and the bonus round allows the winner to compete for a prize of $10,000 and secure a spot as an expert on a future episode. Brooke Burns herself is surprisingly good for a Comeback Kid on Masterminds and is fun and full of energy and seems to be really giggly but her question reading is improved and if Jeopardy needed a female host to replace Alex Trebek Brooke Burns would fit perfect like a glove. Would I give Masterminds another watch? I might but I think ITV may sue GSN for copying The Chase and hopefully I hope GSN does not ask Mark Labbett to replace one of the experts on Masterminds for next season if it survives just because Brooke Burns is hosting Masterminds now
Overall Grade B+

Hi, Bestie! I haven't seen Masterminds yet. I like Brooke, I think she got a bad deal when they cancelled The Chase. I hope this show works out for her.

Here's another thing I discovered about Masterminds that I hope Family Feud's producers don't sue GSN for. It seems that the final round is a copy of Family Feud's Fast Money round and even mirrors the same exact gameplay as Fast Money as well. I don't know why Masterminds copied Family Feud's Fast Money round for this game's bonus round but I hope Steve Harvey doesn't notice and files a lawsuit

I have been watching the show but my only complaint is the contestant seldom wins. I have seen about 40 episodes and only ? 5 contestants have won $10,000. Also have less of Ken Jennings. I like Muffy and Jonathan but only a few times have seen two different people on the panel. Lakedra and Adriana. My thoughts give more choice of Master minds and have a few more contestants win.
