2* ProductionPosse: John Ricci and Mandel Ilagan are very good friends and have frequently worked on various projects (they both worked on ''Series/{{Whammy}}'' for GSN; [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtRbIvQnuzo the final rehearsal game]] had Mandel hosting and giving the rules ''from memory'', while John acted as a contestant). Meanwhile, casting producer Laura Chambers had not only served that role on game shows before, but was on the pilot of the 80s ''Series/{{Scrabble}}'', to boot.
