This show is pretty sweet and definitely starting to become my favorite game show on TV. Really cool concept!!! Fun stuff that everyone can do with really cool household items. It's so easy to learn to and all you have to do is submit your very own user video and you can get a chance to win. I'm Super Excited that it's now on Tuesday Nights too!!! Tuesdays and Wednesday? I can't get enough!!! NBC definitely out did themselves with this show. And Guy Fieri is the man! Go Minute To Win It!!! Tuesdays and Wednesdays 8 p.m. on NBC.
