Should Bingo Blitz change the top money prize to $20,000 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hawkee · 05-11-2025, 04:36 AM

When I started watching Bingo Blitz I found it odd that Bingo Blitz has $10,000 as it's top prize and they should lower the cash prize to $20,000 because that would be a better payout. Also why is the Treasure Chest also a money prize? Bingo Blitz should've had a trip like to Hawaii or Las Vegas as a Treasure Chest prize along with the money. Was this a cheap way for GSN to market Bingo Blitz when it was in development?

Yes, it should once as soon as Bingo Blitz gets renewed by Game Show Network

I think GSN did Bingo Blitz on the cheaper side because having the top prize be $10,000 just seems like a weak prize to me and they could've made the top prize be $20,000 or $25,000 like Catch-21 did. I think the only reason why Bingo Blitz is a hit is because of Valerie Bertinelli being the host. And I cannot figure out how Valerie Bertinelli got the hosting job of Bingo Blitz? I guess Valerie wants to be a successful game show star. But this is one show I actually got hooked on after getting the Bingo Blitz app for Easter and unlike Candy Crush on CBS this is one show that follows the app well

$10,000 is the maximum for most GSN originals now. They don't have the budget of a major broadcast network like ABC. America Says had $15,000 but for John Michael Higgins' 2nd show Split Second they reduced it to $10,000.

Sony owns GSN. Selling just 40 PS5's would cover the 20 grand.
