Episode 29.7 - School Teachers
February 27

Jason: NO EMPANADAS FOR YOU!
Chico: Empanadas! Empanadas! Mas empanadas!
Jason: Empanadas Deliciosas
Chico: Welcome back to WLTI. Thanks for being a part of our weekend and allowing our weekend to be a part of you.
Gordon: I like my Empanadas with ice cream and sushi.
Jason: Ewwwww
Chico: You're sick.
Gordon: See, those things you can't have at the same time.
Chico: Before I become physically ill...
Gordon: And certain shows we can't watch at the same time. So we have to decide whether to watch or record.
Chico: So let's start it with this...

This week's American Idol men or the Biggest Loser.

Jason: Watch the men...DVR the loser
Chico: Sounds like a typical choice.
Jason: Both shows are on the downslide.
Chico: Also true.
Gordon: Watch the guys, don't bother watching The Biggesl Loser until the walkout episode.
Chico: Right. Next?
Gordon: Next one...

The Idol women or Survivor? Before you run to say Idol, let me remind you that no one here thinks a woman's going to win it this year.

Chico: Crazy women. Or Crazy women.
Jason: Watch the women of Survivor....DVR Idol.
Chico: ... what Jason said
Jason: The women of survivor are fun to watch self-destruct
Gordon: Imp going to watch Idol. I'm hoping one of them could surprise. I'll DVR the women of Survivor.
Chico: You're holding out a lot of hope, bruh.
Jason: Big time.
Gordon: True, but the train wrecks will be fun to write about
Jason: Yes. Both of them
Chico: Oh yeah. I had a great time on Wednesday. Next up...

Top Shot... or Chopped

Jason: Watch Top Shot...DVR Chopped
Chico: I like watching Top Shot, DVRing Chopped. Gives me a reason to stick around after Top Gear. :-)
Gordon: Watch Top Shot. I want to try the recipes in Chopped so Im going to dvr it and save the menus.
Chico: You want to try the recipes in Chopped? You have seen some things that came out of the Chopped kitchen, right? I mean, some of those things are unfit for human consumption.
Gordon: You're talking to Mr. Sushi Empenada here :)
Chico: Point taken.
Jason: lol
Gordon: Next one...

The first live battle on The Voice...or the Snatch Game episode on RuPaul's Drag Race?

Jason: DVR Snatch Game. Watch the Live Battle.
Gordon: I'll DVR Snatch Game because I'd want to save it. Those are the best Game Show parodies ever. Classics.
Chico: Yeah. Watch the battles. DVR the Snatch Game. And keep it long after you're done watching it. If you've never seen it... Dude... It's AWESOME.
Jason: Its rude. It's crude. And tear inducingly funny
Chico: In that it's just LIKE the Match Game.
Jason: yes.
Chico: Time for the Triple Threat Relay...

Amazing Race... Cupcake Wars.... Scrabble Showdown/Game of Life.

Jason: I watch AR
Gordon: Really? Amazing Race watch, DVR Scrabble / Life, watch Cupcake Wars when it repeats 30 times around the schedule.
Chico: Ah, a challenge you want, then?
Gordon: Bring it on.
Chico: I gotcha...Wednesday at 10.

Face Off... top Chef finale... the Challenge.

Jason: Watch Face Off - DVR the finale and ignore the challenge
Gordon: Watch Top Chef, DVR Face Off, Watch the challenge when it repeats 30 times on MTV.
Chico: Okay, you got me. Watch Face Off and Amazing Race. DVR Top Chef and Scrabble. And... reruns all over the place. Next?
Gordon: Last one...

Sweet Home Alabama or Funny or Die's Billy on the Street

Jason: How about neither and watch any of DVDs?

How about...no.

Chico: Here we go. Watching... DVDs of Studio Ghibli classics. Recording... the number of braincells dying as I drink beer after beer.
Gordon: Watching: Sweet Home Alabama. DVRing: Billy on the Street and then sending them to Chico and Jason as internet memes.
Jason: NO NO NO (block)
Chico: Unsubscribe
Gordon: While Chico and Jason try to get the bugs out of their computer, we'll go to break.

(Sponsored by Survivor: Women Gone WIld! No Really, they have - look at those crazy eyes. See how crazy they can really be.)

Chico: They have crazy eyes
Jason: Scary.
Chico: I mean, one look and you know... they're just crazy. And speaking of crazy... Gordon?
Gordon: ...thanks :P
Chico: Heh.
Gordon: It's time to PLay the Percentages. And I'll start.
Jason: Ok

What's the chances that a woman wins...Survivor?

Chico: 6.9%
Jason: I would say about 10%
Gordon: I'll say 40%. The girls are alphas this season and they may be able to out strategize this season. You can get out of an early hole in Survivor.
Chico: If they can work together. I don't see that happening any time thing soon.
Gordon: Well, no. Hence the 40%. Next one?
Chico: Next..

Mondo is on a tear in Project Runway All-Stars while Mila, with that Papua New Guinea dress with the identity crisis, has been torn. So the question is... what are the odds that Mondo wins the whole thing?

Gordon: 70%. Most of the audience felt during his season that Mondo should have won it, and I'm sure that's weighing on the judges.
Jason: 60%
Chico: I'm going to go 80%. Austin and Kenley are going to fall apart. As soon as that happens, it's Mondo's to lose.
Gordon: Next one...

We all know about The Biggest Loser mess. What's the chances that we see an edition of it in 2013?

Jason: 80%
Jason: 2nd Biggest Cash Cow for NBC
Chico: 75%. They're trying, but I don't give them that much credit.
Gordon: 80% - and if they get Jillian, 95%. This makes way too much money for them to bail out on, and the ratings, for then, are good.
Chico: Well, they make more money off of merchandising than the show itself, so there's that. Why do you think the Office has gone on as long as it did without Steve Carell? MOICHANDISING!
Gordon: More like Moochendising
Rob the Cash Cow: MOOOOOO
Chico: Or just Mooching.
Gordon: Next one?
Chico: Next one.

Baseball IQ wraps up a successful season 1. What are the odds that we see a season 2 before Opening Day next year?

Jason: 75%
Chico: 80%.
Gordon: 90% It's good cheap programming
Chico: Yup yup and yup.
Gordon: Next one...

You both like Shark Tank. Gordon doesn't. but whatever. What are the chances that something someone invests in actually makes the marketplace?

Jason: 10% There has to be SOMETHING
Gordon: 30% They do need time to get it to market. I'm not sure if you'll ever see anything in our neck of the woods.
Chico: 15%. Lori Grenier will get it on QVC... which about 15 people will watch and buy. I know this for a fact. People buy things from QVC.
Gordon: Next one?
Chico: Next one..

What are the chances that someone from this year's Idol... OR X Factor... OR the Voice... actually sells something that you'd listen to (or in G's case, remix) on the radio?

Jason: 100%. Something has to click
Gordon: 100%. The failed idol singers always make it to the club music scene. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2OZPXFsAWs
Chico: ... guess so. 83%.
Gordon: Blake Lewis, who has had a number of #1 Dance Hits
Chico: and collabos, don't forget those.
Gordon: They really should rename the show to Broadway Musical or Dance Diva Idol
Chico: Last time we saw Broadway Musical... it didn't work out well.
Gordon: Nope. Next one...

The chances that Paula Abdul's Mansion is REALLY haunted?

Chico: Depends. Is Paula still living in it?
Gordon: ...ouch.
Chico: I had to.
Jason: 100% with the ghost of Live To Dance
Gordon: OUCH! I'll say 15%. I could see Corey Clark and Hey Paula cast members hiding in the house.
Jason: lol
Chico: I'll say about 75%. 80 if there's a cardboard standee of MC Skat Kat.
Gordon: Its got that Vibeology. Spooky. Last one?
Chico: Last one. Oh Gordon, youre going to LOVE this.
Gordon: That usually means I won't.

Okay, so we know the parade of winners on the Bachelor this season. In keeping with the theme of Mardi Gras this week... What's the chances that you'll see Captain Ben and President Courtney on a future Krewe of Fleiss?

Jason: 0%. -69% even
Gordon: Actually, 100%. Bachelor Pad is available, and they would be the perfect villains.
Chico: Damn it. Didn't even think about that.
Gordon: Chances of them getting on anything else from ABC? -5,000%
Chico: I'm going to go with 100% on either, 50% on BOTH.
Gordon: That's actually a pretty good one, though I'm sure you didn't mean it that way.
Chico: I thought it was "good" in that you like to make me suffer through it.
Gordon: Oh no. I'm not that person to make you suffer through segments.
Chico: Yeah you are. :-)
Jason: Where is the real Gordon and what did you do with him? :-)
Gordon: I much prefer to make you suffer through a commercial. Like this!
Jason: Never mind.
Chico: See?

Chico: We are. And after Scotty gave us so much hope.
Jason: :-)
Gordon: if it makes you feel any better. NYC gives you ...Heejun Han
Chico: Can NYC give us a Speed round?
Gordon: We could give you one...now! Survivor: Who's next?
Chico: Monica.
Jason: Kat is GONE.
Gordon: I actually think the girls will win one, which means Goodbye Colton, but I see Kat going away if the ladies lose again. Jeopardy: The Hof is winning...right?
Chico: Justin Hofstetter. Mark it.
Jason: I am going with Brooks.
Gordon: Since Jay says no, I'll go yes. Top Chef: Texas: who wins?
Chico: Paul Qui.
Gordon: I agree. Paul has been monster
Jason: Dont know.
