Damn thats fast
that's too bad
Oof yeah i don't like Danny either id also unsub
Drew Gooden
That’s because drew owns RUclips.
too bad he spells his name like a chump!
Yo Kurtis, this you?
hey kurty❤️🔥🤷♀️😘
hi kurtis conner 🫖🫖
Obviously you're the superior Kurtis
Bruhh
Curtis would be good at a presidential debate, he’d never let anyone else say anything. Ever.
Lol true.
@EVERY SINGER IS SO GOOD! LOL! yeah buddy real convincing when you spam the same exact message on like 100 vids
@EVERY SINGER IS SO GOOD! LOL! drew is not even a musician.
basically Ben Shapiro
Trump would have some competition
curtis's strategy is to guess when the important information will be given in the question and buzz right before that. it will take a second or so for the host to acknowledge the buzz and stop reading, so there will still be a few words spoken after the buzz, allowing curtis to get enough info to answer correctly. most people will wait until they hear the info and know the answer to buzz, but curtis gets in a little bit ahead. when other players buzz in early, they have to buzz in even before the earliest possible moment where they'll get enough info to answer, almost guaranteeing they won't actually know the question. curtis's strategy really is the best one to take in this kind of game, where the trivia is so easy that all the players were know almost all of the answers.
i’m amazed
Yeah, that’s what I figured. It’s easier said than done, of course, since he had to simultaneously be listening to the question, identifying keywords, and making predictions.
Hmm
wow
i figure this dude was on the academic team in school because thats how lots of competitive trivia is set up - theyll tell you exactly what sort of thing theyre looking for right at the beginning of the question then give more context that makes it easier, so some people can swoop in right at the start. one of the questions in this video was "bram stoker's novel" and he was able to cut it off there, because the most famous bram stoker novel is dracula so dracula was a relatively safe guess
"What the fuck, Michelle?" made me laugh way more than it probably should have.
I rewatched that a few times
Classic obscure reference
@@andybaldman "what the fuck, richard"
@@jackieburkhart3268 I taught my girlfriend that one, and we say it all the time to each other. It's become part of our vocabulary.
@@andybaldman my friend and I reference it all the time, it’s weirdly fun to say
Actually a very smart strategy, he knows enough to get a decent amount of his buzzes right, but even when he gets them wrong he has such a lead because he literally just doesn’t let anyone else answer that it doesn’t matter, on top of that it makes the other contestants nervous and they’ll buzz when they don’t have an answer further increasing his lead
So was the game different than jeopardy? In jeopardy if the first person gets the answer wrong other people can buzz in. It’s the game itself that is the flaw! There were a bunch of shitty game shows in the 80s!
@@MichaelSuperbacker I imagine situations like these are probably what lead to other game shows adopting that format to make it less one sided for whoever presses the button first.
Honestly super bad design. Did the producers not think that someone would just… keep buzzing in?
@@luckyman9457 I think they assumed that the person would get a bunch wrong and lose points, but he was too skilled
The point system also is flawed. Starting out with 4x the point value so if you miss a question it’s not really a big deal.
Curtis actually first applied for the position of host but was turned down, and he took that personally
he destroy games
He probably made more money as a contestant than he would have as a host 🤔
I love seeing nba memes in regular comment sections
Actual supervillain
And probably ran away with the question cards

Amazed not censored back then
Richard: "I-"
Curtis: "The Spanish inquisition!"
Richard: "That is correct"
Only Curtis expects it
Michelle: "Well, that was unexpected"
I was playing a trivia game with my brother once. All he got out was “she-“ and I blurted out “the queen of England!”
He just paused and said “uh…yeah”
@@ingloriousbaxter You're a descendant of Curtis
Nobody: I expected that.
Imagine getting on this show and being excited to win money on a game show... then realizing that Curtis came back
I am a liar, you are a liar. I am a thief, you are a thief. We have all sinned. We have all broken God’s law and fallen short of His glory. The consequence of this is death. Hell. God is perfect and He will judge you with a perfect standard. Anyone less than perfect, is worthy of condemnation. So I ask you, are you perfect? Only someone deluded would say they are. But God, out of the love He has for us, gave us a way to be saved from eternal damnation. He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for your sins. He was then buried, and on the third day He resurrected. Christ died for you. He took the punishment in your place. He lived the perfect life you could not, and then was crushed under the full wrath of God, bearing our sin on the cross. He paid the fine for your crime. Jesus resurrected from the dead, defeating death. This is a sign that God almighty approved the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. And now, Christ is the only way to escape punishment. Christ is the only way to be saved. Repent, and believe in the gospel. Believe on Jesus Christ. Put your faith in His death and resurrection alone to save you. You cannot be saved by your own works. Salvation is by grace, through faith. Repent, and believe. You have been presented this today. You are without excuse. God bless you.
"I can't wait to see if I'll-"

"-aaaaand it looks like I'm going home broke af today 😔"
Even if you weren’t expecting to win, just to have some fun..
@@MrFrog-rc3zx , out of curiosity, but what does your comment have to do with the content of this video? I do not deny that what you say is important, if not well-intended, but it honestly sounds like spam. Moreover, at least YAHASHUA HA'MASHIACH tried to relate to the people of His Time with parables. Why not be more relatable yourself?
@@paxhumana2015 It doesn’t have to do with the video, and Im not using parables because I don’t want the Gospel to be lost in anyone’s interpretation. I want it to be clear.
Michele is the alternate timeline hero of Curtis’s story who eventually learns his greatest weakness and defeats him in a grand finale match where all the money is on the line, teaching him the ultimate them that the true game show host prize is the friends you made along the way.
There's an art to telling bad jokes, and both John and Michelle NAILED it.
That’s a jarring transformation Curtis made into an unhinged quiz show supervillain.
Did you mean The Riddler?
It looks like he spent that 15 year gap between shows touring with The Cure.

Watching this made me realize why Jeopardy is so much more fun to watch. The reason Curtis was able to keep winning, it seems to me, was because a) they can buzz in before the question is finished, b) if they get it wrong, the others don't get to try to answer, and c) the questions aren't that difficult. I'm sure he studied and practiced but they're nowhere near as challenging as Jeopardy questions, so you're far more likely to get it right with a guess.
He also is trying to buzz in in a very tight window; which is *before* the host gives important context clues but *after* he's still going to say them as part of a natural part of finishing his thought. If the buzzer cut the host's mic it would be a different story.
Late response but you have to remember the time this game show took place in. I was able to answer quite a few of these myself but that’s because I have 10+ years of googling random shit.
@@reallifesupermann the other contestants knew too by the time Curtis was answering them, he'd just already buzzed in 2 seconds ago
Curtis is the type of chaotic I aspire to be, but in reality, I'm just John.
I feel like this guy is the reason why Jeopardy added that buzzer mechanism that doesn't allow you to buzz in until the host finishes speaking the question xD
Jeopardy is even more brutal than that, if you buzz early your buzzer gets locked out for like a half second so you get screwed out of the question.
Dont dislike it
I know this is off-topic, but I love your 'slipping into the future' fanfic! (if you are the author of it if you're not sorry for wasting your time)
@@ordinaryartistt how do you know they wrote a fanfic? And where, ao3? 😂
Jeopardy also allows the other contestants to answer if you don't know. That's why it's game-breaking here to buzz in early: you deny them the chance to earn any points ever. As long as you're right more often than wrong, you're guaranteed to win. And that's assuming that penalty is equal to points for getting it right -- which I don't think it is lol.
I think what's really funny about his reaction to the woman's joke is that the audience laughed harder at her joke than the dentist's. 😭

"Curtis, that wasn't a question, but I'm glad to see you're already on your bullshit." The delivery of that was immaculate.

I think he’d take you…
Curtis is who I imagine myself to be on a gameshow, John is how I'd actually look.

Not as confident as you are about your retro Denzel picture

And get 2 million views on it
Yeah and drew has over 140K likes and under 1K dislikes
Host: who-
Curtis: Your mom
Host: That is correct!!
The scary part is that I immediately thought of 1986 as a long time ago and 2000 as basically the present day. Then later it dawned on me that 2000 is actually closer to 1986 than to now.
This man has the most 1980's "smirk and head jiggle" when he's correct.
THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS UP! Hilarious!
I love it so much
And when he got the answer right and mouthed “oh gosh”
EXACTLY, lolol!
6:02 - he says "Cu- Michelle" expecting it do be curtis lol
There is a kind of “sport quizzing” where the whole point is that you memorise all questions so you can buzz in as early as you can make out what question it’s gonna be.
Curtis: *winning*
Michele: *trying to beat Curtis*
John: :|
He actually died four days ago, so don't be too hard on the family of rats that moved into his corpse and were moving it around.

@EVERY SINGER IS SO GOOD! LOL! cring
It was a good guess tho since there were two Roosevelts
Only one president was ever in office and it was Franklin Roosevelt
@@Sfoof elaborate?
I love how Curtis smiles and nods whenever he answers, he cannot answer without a nod
I wonder if any of the contestants that he went up against knew his strategy beforehand. Also, the showrunners must have been annoyed as hell because half the fun of watching a trivia quiz show is trying to guess the answer at home, but the host couldn't even get out half the question most of the time. They also needed to fill ~25 minutes, and this dude is shaving off time like crazy.
I played quizbowl for a few years, and it sucks so much to be going against the team with one guy who knows literally everything after one word. It hurts even more when they are like 11, which is strangely common
was thinking the exact same thing, those middle school quizbowl factories are so discouraging
@EVERY SINGER IS SO GOOD! LOL! no
I was allowed on the quizbowl team a year early and watching 12/13 year olds realize they're getting owned by a 10 year old is a gratification I haven't been able to replicate since
i did quizbowl one year but my utter lack of interest in local politicians (i was 12) meant i lost my team a few points. also the host reading the questions had such a thick southern accent i heard 'group of lines' as 'group of lions'
@EVERY SINGER IS SO GOOD! LOL! Last time you said it was Danny...
as someone who's on a highschool quizbowl team, curtis is just a normal player lmao
since in small matches you don't lose points, this is pretty much how you're encouraged to play
This comment is so fucking insane.
@@tmw3489 ?
Thankfully you are penalized in all competitions I go to, but I still play like this sometimes
@@PandaFan2443 yes and no, it depends on the league of play and especially what kind of round youre playing. most tournaments ive played it are based on whoever gets the point first, so its usually not determined by the buzzer after the question is fully read, but rather while it is being read out.
Hope everyone doing good and staying safe. If you need to talk to someone or need help, there are people who care. Sending support and hearts. ❤️❤️❤️❤❤
surprised ive seen no mentions of 6:02 where the host says "c- michelle"
Yeah I just noticed it
Curtis’ buzzing-in-before-he’s-heard-the-whole-question thing is actually how you are taught to behave in big quizzing competitions with buzzers, there’s a bunch of crazy techniques like half-pressing down the button before the question so you have less of a delay between the mental impulse and the actual pressing of the button. What he’s doing though is where you are taught to be able to tell from the start of the question what the full question is likely to be and to buzz in off of that alone.
I am the cool kid from Germany making videos for the USA and the rest of the world. I will make your day so don't say nay to me today, dear dus

This show is making me realize how lucky I was in school that they made it a rule that you couldn't answer before the question finished or else you'd be disqualified when playing trivia games
Curtis just used 2 strategies, really well:
1. Always buzz in first.
2. His grip on the buzzer is for speed.
3. Only get 80% of the questions right so they don't know you're a computer
@@jonahmusic7243 or working with a producer that you're cutting in half the money with
@@jonahmusic7243 It sounded like he knew WHAT the host was going to ask so he probably semi-cheated either watching old videos or just getting a list of what the host would ask and memorizing what he could based on the first words asked.....that or he got extremely lucky
@@ontxtteredwxngs There was a scandal over rigged game shows in the 50s and they made a law banning rigged game shows with some steep penalties, networks take it seriously so I doubt it was rigged.

@@marianacastrillon8185 "Boa Constrictors are what type of animal?"
"What-"
*DING*
"Curtis?"
Curtis: "A chocolate crucifix!"
"And that is correct for 65 dollars!"
The host continues reading the question for a couple more words during the buzzer, which is what I think makes the strategy viable. As long as Curtis buzzes right before he thinks the key word is going is said, he can essentially get the extra information he needs to answer AFTER the buzzer. It probably wouldn't work as well if ringing in immediately cut off the host or if the game worked like Jeopardy where the buzzers are locked out until after the question is read and an arbitrary countdown occurs.
His haircut evolution looks like him slowly becoming an evil genius doctor who creates his own race of superhumans and becomes a gameshow style dictator where if you don't know enough trivia you're executed.

the most admirable thing is how he manages to act surprised every time he's told how much he won

Theory: Curtis is actually an employee of the show, and it's his job to keep the others from winning the money.
Honestly that's my only guess.
It was rigged from the start.
He wouldnt even hear the entire question. Im thinking he knew the questions
i was thinking the same
I believe it
@@HarioG-es3kj the questions were easy tho
Side note- this wasn’t just Curtis who dominated like this. Every $ale of the Century grand champion was the kind of person that would answer three words in. Basically, if you saw a player do this for a couple questions in a row, chances are they probably won six figures.
because if you answer 4 questions and only get one of them wrong, you've made a net total of $5 while not giving your opponents a chance to get anything at all. Easy game to dominate
Starting to see why this wasn’t a format that persisted
@@nmitchxll305 that’s what I got out of it. It’s little risk high reward. If you get it wrong. Whatever. You now fucked over the other two because they don’t have a chance to guess because they just saw the answer. If you get it right. Nice.
Reminds me of the gambler on Jeopardy.
Jeopardy is the only game show with merit, where people who win usually do so because they were the most knowledgeable and prepared.

@@mr.shickadance4112 Literally Dexter
I was on a game show and there's a reason Curtis's strategy worked so well. The moderator would usually add one or two more words after the buzzer and it would essentially be like it was being read just to him at that point.
Curtis was also on Ben Stein's money and Jeopardy where he lost. Point of note with Jeopardy, if you use the buzzer early there like his preferred strategy you actually get locked out for a split second which means you lose the chance to be first.
I wanna see the remake of this, Cody as host, and Danny,Drew and Curtis playing
Ever since Drew made me realize that people post on the end of the month to meet deadlines for sponsorships, I can only notice how everybody posts a video on the last day of the month, and that shit's hilarious
Now I'll never forget
Same. Every single time
Can't blame them 😂😂😂
Lmaooo
OMG HAHAHA I can't stop laughing!!!! It's so so funny that people post videos on the same day!!!! HAHAHA
To compare the question answering on Jeopardy, since in all honesty this is just Jeopardy but worse. On Jeopardy, a staffer has to enable the buzzer system once the host finishes their sentence. Buzz too soon and your blocked for a few seconds; which is crucial time. It was at a point where some of the best Jeopardy players like Ken Jennings were able to notice the style of how some of the staff handled the buzzer along with knowing some of Trebeks speech patterns to figure out when he would finish the question.
Which is why when warren went on Jeopardy he experienced his biggest failure
There's a whole book on it. I'm pretty sure Jennings read it. The book is called Secrets of the Buzzer
Curtis probably would've dominated in Season 1 (or even before that on the Art Fleming version) Jeopardy where you could buzz in as soon as the clue is revealed but then the host still finished reading the whole thing before calling on you.
That's a lot to think about while also trying to listen to the question and answer it right.
Holy. Fucking. Shit. I almost blinked and missed this frame. Pause it at exactly 7:48 and you'll be greeted with a single picture worth a thousand words

This reminds me of some obscure anime I once watched where the whole premise was the main characters trying to become champions at trivia quiz competitions and now I’m convinced Curtis was in this show and somehow made the insane tactics for figuring out the question from voice tone and context clues actually work.
Was it Chihayafuru?
5:39 was the question "What would you do with Baklava?"?
You’d eat it!
The fact that you didnt ask Kurtis to play Curtis is such a lost opportunity lol

If anyone wants an idea about how Curtis is probably guessing correctly before the question is finished: In most game shows if they ask a question about an artist it's probably going to be an artist that most of the audience is going to be familiar with. So if the question asks about an artist that was also an inventor, you should probably guess "Leonardo Da Vinci" even though he wasn't the only artist who invented things. The same logic applies to other catrgories too.

Exactly what I thought when watching this. Predictable questions and weird game rules allowed for Curtis to win like this.

I love the look of annoyance and defeat on the other contestants faces. They're just like "WTF am I even doing here?"
Please always, ALWAYS make videos about random things you find interesting for the rest of eternity. I was so invested, lol!
Most of these I can see how Curtis made his guess (even on the ones he got wrong). The one that scares me is at 4:50 when the host says “My father-“ and Curtis somehow guesses “Lady Di”. Like what wizardry is that?!
She was in the news a lot at the time, so i guess there was something particular about her father 🤷♀️
maybe there was a portion of the question cut out?
@@norak8080 It does sound like there's a fade out after "My father".
It’s from a round called fame game where the host gives multiple clues about a famous person and the contestants buzz in when they figure out who it is. The “my father” clue wasn’t the first clue given.
@@juliannebrunt9308 ohhhhh. Cool, thanks for the info!
Host:"The youtuber who will make a video about…”
Curtis:“Drew Gooden”
John:”What’s a RUclipsr”
Michelle: "Drewkurtnny Gonconner"
@@Nitrolord now tell me why my brain initially read gonconner as gonorrhea
this game show is in ‘rain man’ near the start of the movie when they go to the place where raymond is kept
I lost it at...
"Marilyn Monroe?"
"We were looking for Joseph Stalin."
"what the hell is wrong with you" 😂
As someone who _was on a trivia show_ of this style for several years - _this is why they have lock-out on the buzzers._ You've got a huge illuminated pair of icons, a green check and a big red X behind the host, and when they finish reading the question, the producer hits a button in the booth, there's an enormous CLUNK noise, and the check mark lights up green. _Only then_ can you buzz in to answer the question. Otherwise, you get shows that look like this.
If you want to see some real scary speed, check out National Quiz Bowl trivia round reads - the proctor reads the questions at lightning pace, and the people answering usually get the answer within the first _5 or 6 words._
I'm confused watching this video cause the only Trivia show I know works like this ?? You buzz in as soon as you get the answer even if the question is not done ?? Sometimes people buzz but they don't have the answer and that's ok ?? Didn't realize some people would want to avoid that lmao
I guess that's a cultural difference.
@@mireillecopin6183 ?? ?? ??
@@mireillecopin6183 They changed how it works because strategies like these were pretty much killing the format. A lot of people prefer to watch trivia shows and play along, as opposed to just rooting for a highly competitive contestant.
@@jade_is_tired yeah that makes sense that some people want a slower-paced show.
Although I can assure you that letting contestant buzz in as soon as they want doesn't stop you from playing along from home, it just makes it highly competitive haha
It's really one of those cultural things you don't realize exists until you hear about it. Like I knew time and silence are cultural, as in how long you should take before answering a question in everyday conversation varies from language to language, or how rude it is to cut someone off depends on the language/culture. I just never thought of the implications of such differences when it comes to trivia shows haha
the cut to Curtis on the second gameshow with the "and he grew out his hair a little bit" has me in tears. i haven't stopped laughing. why did he look like that
My guess is he was going for the
A. Einstein look
B. Mad scientist vibe.
He had the Robert Smith hair thing going on
He looks like he was electrocuted immediately before going on stage. That being said I would gladly take that haircut if it means I'd get 1.4 million dollars
Semi-related tangent, watching old episodes of Match Game is hilarious. I always enjoy playing "How long until each person says something that would end their career today?" Its not long for most of them.
Curtis is the kid who yells out the answer in class before the teacher could ask if anyone knew the answer
He probably is the reason for a lot of modern game shows' rules, all it takes is someone clever enough to game the system the first time
The press your luck scandal was a much bigger clusterfuck.
