"Split Second" is a short-lived game show that most people don't remember besides major viewers of daytime '70s or '80s TV and hardcore game show fans. I suggest watching a video of it on YouTube. Both the Tom Kennedy (original) version and the Monty Hall (1980's) version are both good and worth watching. It's a fairly fast-paced show with a major emphasis on trivia and questions and a very, very cool scoring format. It's great! The complete luck in the bonus round is one of the downfalls, but I assume they figure they should make the bonus round really simple for such a difficult game. One of the coolest things about the original Kennedy is that Ford was the sponsor for the cars, so you got a nice choice of a Ford car, a cool marketing move. I don't really have too much more to say, but a lot of people that have seen the show and know it's history think it definitely ran far shorter than it should have. I completely agree!
