looks very nice ,
TAKE MY BITCOINS – PLEASE!
NEW YORK (InsideBitcoins) — There are some people who believe that to build mass acceptance of bitcoin, you’ve got to give it away. Hey listen; it’s worked for the U.S. dollar. The Fed can’t print greenbacks fast enough. But really, handing out cash is a time-honored tradition for gaining influence. It’s worked for politicians and organized crime (is that redundant?) since the beginning of time.
What we need is a good old-fashioned cheesy game show with a snappy theme, ringing buzzers and a mess of free bitcoins. Turns out we’ve got one.

the idea is great. and what's wrong with BFL, they started the sponsoring tradition, maybe more trusted firm will take over in the future.
Wow cool a Bitcoin game show!
We've done 22 episodes. You can see them here: http://takemybitcoins.tv/past-episodes/

Thanks for informing us! This is pretty cool

We will have new sponsorship information soon, but until then:
"A very generous fan gave us 3 Bitcoin to keep the show going!
As you may know we have been talking with sponsors to help us put on a second season of Take My Bitcoins. We had a very successful season 1 of 22 episodes where we gave away over 84 Bitcoins to 280 people in 20 different countries.
But gathering sponsors and then getting all the legal done takes time, especially with our low budgets and no sales staff. Our crew even agreed to work for free to keep the show going, but we thought it was better to do this right. Our crew works hard and deserves to be paid (in Bitcoins!) And you the fan tune in week after week and deserve the best show and the most Bitcoins we can give away.
Last night after we gave away Bitcoins on Twitter, a fan wanted to know when we were coming back and how he could help. He then amazingly sent us 3 Bitcoins so we can do a show on Oct 23rd.
We have been doing web content for over 15 years, (5 years full time as Streamin' Garage) not only our own original shows but shows for other networks and celebrities as well- and we have never seen such a giving community as that of the Bitcoin/ alt-coin world.
Our entire goal starting this off was to introduce crypto-currency to "the masses" (adoption) we have done that and we have also become part of a special community who has embraced us, made us laugh and now have helped us thru a rough time.
We can't thank you enough for watching the show, sharing the show and now donating to the show.
Sincerely and humbly,
Mike Rotman and the entire Take My Bitcoins crew

So are you guys still sponsored by BFL or....?

Honestly, their connection to your show being broken is great news for you guys. Sure, it might be harder to get the bitcoins to give away as prizes, but at least your name is not muddied by association with liars and thieves.

We are in fact the first ever worldwide game show. Maps don't lie. We really need some press. Anyone?

We understand and sympathize, but are bound by laws. We don't ask for ID scan. We do ask you to fill out a W9 or W8 if you win.
Even if you don't win our chat room is a fun place to spend an hour and we think the show is fun too, so give us a chance sometime. http://takemybitcoins.tv/play-live
Remember so far we've give away ~69 Bitcoins.

This sounds absolutely insane .. a game show with bitcoins?? If I happen to be awake one night I'll call in, I promise.
Where are you from? Some of our fans have parties to watch. Think about hosting one (real or virtual!). Give us a time that better suits you. If you get enough fans together, we'll do it.
