Fairly worth-y effort

I've already advertised my dislike of pricing game shows. So there's a natural bias when I review It's Worth What. But cross my heart and hope to die, I really didn't think the show was that bad. I'll admit, it's not my sub-genre and things move a little slow and I get bored with pricing things. But the items on display were so exotic and, well, downright fun, that the show passed my time pretty pleasantly.

I tried guessing along for a while and even nailed the muscle car instead of the Miss USA crown. By the way, Miss USA herself was definitely one of the most exotic and fun parts of the show. They didn't let her say anything, though. But then I wiped out on the Australian cockatoo and stopped trying to figure out what was worth what.

Mr. Kyles did a decent job as host, enthusiastic but not too florid. The contestants were reasonably clued-in and didn't scream all the time. And the set is a dream, full of nooks, crannies and goodies. I don't think I'll become a hopeless fan, but there are worst things to watch on TV.
