About "Good Luck! Bad Luck!":
10 people. 10 skills. 10 questions. In this brand new game
show from Dick de Rijk ("Deal or No Deal"), ten people are hiding a
percentage behind their jacket. The only thing we know: Together
they're worth 100%! At the end of round one, our contestant
receives the accumulated percentage for those questions answered
correctly. You received 60%? Sounds great. But 60% of what? Time
for the 5 family members or friends to show up, each one hiding an
amount of money. Who's hiding what amount? Which family member will
help you win a fortune, or… lose
it?
