“The people at Game Show Network called with this funny idea, to call an episode of AMERICA SAYS, like it’s a sporting event. It was a blast,” said Waltz. “Two big reasons I said yes; Game Show Network told me I could call the game in my pajamas, and I’m a huge fan of John Michael Higgins’ work in movies like ‘Best In Show’ and ‘A Mighty Wind.’”
AMERICA SAYS,hosted by John Michael Higgins, is a fast-paced studio game show where two teams of friends and family face off to guess America’s responses to fill-in-the-blank survey questions covering every topic under the sun. They’ll have to be quick when trying to think of what America says, as time is always ticking and the team with the most money banked after three rounds will head to a bonus round to see if they can win up to $15,000.
