We start this time around with the Big Deal that legendary game show host Monty Hall is going to co-host one segment with Wayne Brady on “Let’s Make A Deal” during the week of March 22-26. According to the press release, he will play one game on his own with an audience member or members of his choosing. For game show fans and fans of Monty Hall this is nirvana.

I have to touch on new spokesmodel Tiffany Coyne, who has replaced Alison Fiori on the show for the past month. She is much better and more interactive than Alison ever was. She is funny, gorgeous and has a great sense of humor. I believe the cast and crew on the show is now complete.

What else is complete is the top 12 on American Idol. Last week, I got 3 of the 4 eliminated people right as John Park, Jermaine Sellers, Haeley Vaughn and Michelle Delamor went home. This week, Alex Lambert, Todrick Hall, Katelyn Epperson and in a huge shock, Lilly Scott were the last eliminated before the top 12. Your top 12 are Michael Lynche, Casey James, Lee Dewyze, Andrew Garcia, Tim Urban and Aaron Kelly for the men and Krystal Bowersox, Lacey Brown, Paige Miles, Didi Benami, Siobhan Magnus and Katie Stevens for the ladies. The Round of 12 theme will be the Songs of the Rolling Stones.

I caught the premiere of “Instant Recall”, the new hidden camera game show on GSN. Wink Martindale hosts this show where two unsuspecting “contestants” are put in a wacky situation. When the cue of “Do You Like Game Shows?” is spoken, Wink and crew come in and transform the site of the situation into the “Instant Recall” studio where the contestants are quizzed on what happened while they were there. In the first episode, there was a fake intervention and a fake love seminar.

The best part of the show is Wink Martindale. He is being Wink Martindale and is not taking himself seriously at all. Everything else about the execution of the show is not that great. The situations themselves are not funny, and the “Blind Date/Pop Up Video” pop ups were too dirty and sexual for an 8:30PM show. They were trying way too hard to force the humor.

And the game show itself was 3 questions long. That was very disappointing, as it felt like they were doing way too much setup for not enough pay off. It’s very hard for me to trash a show like this, because I like Wink here. The show itself is not worthy of him.
