Evil. Pure Evil

America has the _best_ gameshows.

Moment of Truth. $500,000, 21 questions. Just answer them all truthfully and you win.

Sound easy?

How about if one of them "Will you ever forgive your husband for running up his gambling debts?" or "Have you ever inappropriately touched a member of the opposite sex at work?"

It's called Nothing but the Truth in this country presented by Jerry Springer and it's on Sky One. They use lie detectors to guage the responses, and the questions are actually derived and written by family and friends rather than the gameshow people. There's been just as many jaw dropping moments in the UK version.
