The fact that it's a video machine (the spin results are actually decided before the show even starts) means the game is too easily rigged, and that ruins any sense of drama or suspense in any of the spins. Compare to the wheel on The Price Is Right. That is a true game of chance and luck, not some predetermined video result. The actual physical spinning is what makes The Price Is Right's wheel exciting. There is nothing exciting about Cherries Wild.

This is a terrible game show. It's just a giant add for Wild Cherry Pepsi. I love Wild Cherry Pepsi but this is just sad. The results of the spins are pre-determined, the audience is fake, and Jason Biggs looks like a hostage. It's a no from me big dog.

First, it's ridiculous to believe that their "vegas" machine is not rigged.... of course it is, it's Hollywood!!! Secondly, it's ALL about stupid overpaid elite Hollywood actors...aka LOSERS. America does not care anymore about these losers in Hollywood. STOP BEING LIKE IDIOT ELLEN DEGENERATE AND BOWING DOWN TO THESE HOLLYWOOD CLOWNS!!! TRY SOME REAL TRIVIA QUESTIONS... NO MORE BS.

Cherries Wild seems like an fun concept at the beginning, but at the end of the day, Cherries Wild is just an big advertisement for Pepsi Wild Cherry but they decided to add an slot machine and call it an game show. By using references to Pepsi Wild Cherry almost every part of the show, this is not an show that was made to be enjoyed, this is an show that was made to make you want to buy Pepsi Wild Cherry. This show did have a lot of potential, but you are better off just skipping this show all together and maybe just stick to drinking regular Pepsi.

Very, very strange. I think cable is worth cancelling now. I agree with Drew Gooden's "it feels like an episode of Black Mirror" summation. "The game that admits to being a farce" is also a pretty accurate review.

I can't entirely hate Cherries Wild because it's a stupid half hour diversion that I can make fun if for its CGI audience and fake slot machine (even though it's a slot machine show). I just feel really bad for the contestants who get scammed by showing up here, and the game show fans who wanted a game show, but sat through a 30 minute Pepsi advertisement.

In a clever collaboration between Fox and Pepsi Wild Cherry, this gameshow features a 3-story slot machine. Jason Biggs is an amiable host for this lively contest that features trivia and slots.

Two-person teams answer trivia in the first two rounds to amass money, free spins, and wild cherries. All the trivia is about pop culture, so it might not appeal to some trivia buffs. The show is more about the emotional rollercoaster that comes from the high-risk gambles that occur in round three, called the Payday round.

In round three, the contestants use their accumulated spins to go for more money. It can be a risky proposition, because it an "X' comes up, it wipes out all the money from that spin. Contestants can also use their earned money to buy extra spins. Sometimes, those are actually smart choices. But we never know what the odds are for a given spin, which is a drawback of the show.

If a team can earn and spin five cherries, they win the top prize of $250,000. In the first two games I watched, significant cash was won.

Though the game play is somewhat complicated, excellent graphics make everything clear for the viewer.

I've loved watching this on Sunday evenings (or on Hulu Monday morning when I've missed it)! I'm a huge fan of Jason Biggs already, and this solidified that more. He's a great game show host! My only complaints were that it's only a half hour, not a whole hour like other game shows produced by networks lately, so that's actually kind of a complaint and compliment wrapped in one. LOL! My other complaint was the audience. It was clear that a lot of it was canned cheers and claps, and that the audience they would show weren't actually there, so it made it feel a little fake, but I understand why they put it in. :-)
