One part "Shark Tank", one part "Liar's Club". While Ludden and the celebrities do their best to entertain the audience, the concept is executed in a clumsy fashion which makes it understandable why the pilot didn't get picked up.
Ludden first met David Letterman in Indianapolis in the mid-1970s, and when Dave moved to LA later on, Password producer Bob Stewart chose Dave to host an unfortunate game show pilot, THE RIDDLERS.
