Cheers: A Good Bet

Cheers to ABC for taking a chance on Wanna Bet?. The quietly endearing reality show, in which celebs wager on whether contestants can pull off stupid human tricks like squeezing an entire marching band inside a van, was flailing on Monday nights after the shockingly DOA High School Musical: Get in the Picture. So the net moved it to Tuesdays after the surprise summer hit Wipeout. Even if this doesn't save the show from obscurity, I wouldn't be surprised if its hosts, Ant and Dec (the charming comic duo imported from Britain's Got Talent), eventually become stars stateside. Anybody wanna bet?
