While permitting the positive participation by the member who has the interactive component (600) connected to television (186) or a personal computer display (187), the televiewer who has the usual television set (186) is seen by a normal state in the usual program. The important feature is that dialog performance is offered without any degradation or discontinuation as an option in the contents of the program to a user without an interactive component (600). Dialog performance is individualized through the substitute audio response and/or the use of a graphic display which may be offered as a part of video signal bandwidth transmitted. A member is provided with an interactive element either immediately after a member entry and/or after transparent "trigger point" (900). By a trigger point (900), the contents of a program are changed skillfully and provide each interactive member with special cautions.
