I was just thinking that maybe the show will give poor old Matt the $100,000 at the end anyway as a show of goodwill for being the poor shmoe on this show. What do you guys think? $100,000 isn't a lot of money considering what other reality shows are doling out nowadays.

I'd be very suprised if he doesn't get it... that would go beyond "you signed a contract that says we can do whatever we like" to fraud.

'As a show of appreciation for your not caving in our heads with a light emplacement --'

'-- only because I couldn't get it free from the wiring in time, you rotten son of a --'

'-- we'd like to give you the hundred thousand dollar first prize at this time.'

'Fine. Can I have it in singles? That should give me just about enough to cram down everyone's throats...'

Hmm. I'm having no trouble picturing Matt getting the money at the end of all this, but PsychoMatt just isn't coming. Maybe if his personal item had been an autographed picture of S6's Matthew...

He should. These networks are getting away with too much.

I kinda figured the same, after all, he has been playing hard under the assumption that he could, in fact, compete for $100,000 (unless he's been hired to con the other actors & actresses, as many theorize).

He's been such a great guy about it, they should give him double. THE¥'RE ¤BVI¤U$£¥ GETTING A £¤t ¤F ADVERTI$ING ¤FF THI$ $¢HM¤ $h¤W, $¤ WH¥ N¤T?

They know if they don't deliver on the $100K, his lawyers could have a heyday - Major Network (judges have little pity for the big dogs), Major Breach of Contract/or Broken Promise public humiliation without just compensation, etc. Any waivers or limitations the network points to could probably be dismissed as "unconscionable" and not worth the paper they're printed on -- even though he was a drop-out law student, the show has made it a point to show that "Joe doesn't know." So it would be easy to prove he didn't understand a contract so complexly one-sided that it is unconscionable that a reasonable person would have entered into it. Either way, I'm not worried about Matt. He seems very resourceful and very concerned about others. In life, many experts agree that 85% of your success comes from people skills, only 15% from product knowledge.

i say he will get a mill in the end that $100'000 was as fake as the show. i think they will tell him it is a joke then they would say since you were a good sport we will give you 1 mill bucks please don't sue

Dude, you don't know what you are talking about! That's just not gonna happen!!!!!

I sure hope he gets it and more..

He's been a great guy..and totally going along with the it all..

If he doesn't get it.. that would be crossing the line of taking the reality thing to the point of unconsciousnable..

Also... just cause he dropped out of Law School means nothing. It probably was simply not a good fit. He's obvious far from being dumb..

I get so weary of hearing in our culture allusions to 'failure' assigned to people and situations that is based on .. well.. nothing.

If I believed in God I'd be prayin he gets it, that guy is as cool as they come.

Not as cool as me!

so, did he get it?

I know I didn't.
