Episode 26.8 - Duh. WINNING!
March 7

Chico: Well, we did have a better week... at least.
Jason: It was 10 degrees here this week.
Chico: Dude. It was storming. And then later that day it was 30 degrees. What the hell. Seriously, weather people... what are you thinking?
Gordon: That sounds like a good transition to me. :D
Chico: Thank you :-) Simple enough. We give you the true-story story... and you give us what they have to be thinking. Gordon, start it.
Gordon: First up...

Survivor's Francesca.

Jason: I was up 2-0 and I lost to this yutz?
Chico: "They're never gonna let me live this down at the reunion."
Jason: I choked like the 2004 Yankees
Gordon: At least I don't have to deal with Russell. Here, YOU deal with him.
Chico: You kids have fun. Okay, next up... I promised this earlier, and here you go...

The fourth judge of "The Voice" on sitting with the lead singer of Maroon 5, the guy who sang "F-star-star-K You!!", and Christina Aguilera.

Jason: If she gets drunk, I can hit that wearing that big Bird Suit from the Grammys and she wouldn't know.
Gordon: Boy I'd like to Twilight's Last Ream her.
Chico: So are we gonna count her votes then?
Gordon: Why don't we...split the vote? :)
Jason: OH MY god.
Chico: NEXT ONE!
Gordon: You. Guys. No. Fun.
Jason: ROFL
Gordon: next...

The Director on ABC who moves 'Take The Money and Run' out of PrimeTime Sweeps month and into the not-so-important (or watched) Summer months.

Chico: ... I'd rather have a guaranteed "Wipeout" than a real one.
Gordon: Let's See...The Amazing Race Survivor Phone Summer Adventure Heist thing....No.
Jason: LOL
Chico: Next one...

Elton John after it's revealed that Simon Cowell isn't considering him for "The X Factor".

Jason: The king of reality TV didn't want the queen of music...feh?
Gordon: What's up with that, mate? Just remember that when you're a washed up has been who can't get on Piers Morgan's show.
Chico: So I don't get X Factor... I'd be crying if I could hear you over all of his Gnomeo & Juliet money.
Gordon: Next...

Charlie Sheen...becoming the next Bachelor

Chico: WINNING!
Jason: Bring It on...I will do them all...I have Tiger Blood...and Adonis DNA! I will do Chris Harrison too! Everybody!
Chico: I'm gonna drop an F-16 full of roses. I'm ready!
Jason: I am Charlie Sheen!
Gordon: And then I want Chico to be my Best Man! He's the only one with Tiger's Blood like me!
Chico: I've got the blood... but not for you, dude. You crazy.
Jason: In all seriousness...Charlie...Go away. Now.
Chico: He's high on a drug called Charlie Sheen.
Gordon: Last one?
Chico: Okay, lat one...

Wendy Williams. The first lady mentioned in the Media Hoes TWICE in one week.

Jason: HOW YOU DOING? I am the next Tyra Banks y'all
Chico: I got the dancing moves down. I got the GSN down. I got the radio show. I got the TV show. I'm bigger than Donald Trump. How YOU doin'?
Gordon: I want Chico to bed me. I want to be a big star and then have Chico bed me.
Chico: (Sigh) Here we go.
Gordon: We can have a love triangle with you, me and Brad Womack.
Chico: ... Why did I not see that coming?
Gordon: Can you see a break coming?
Jason: I DO! It's right here.
Chico: Yep.
Gordon: Show it to me, then I'll show you what should and will happen...next!

(Brought to you by I Can't Believe It's Not Idol. The singing contest with celebrity judges, all-star-level talent and viewer vote-ins, but it's not American Idol.)

Jason: Does it have Megan Mullally dancing in a grocery store?
Chico: I wish. The point? Just when you think everyone's stopped cloning American Idol... here comes American Idol... and here come the clones. The Voice... Platinum Hit...
Jason: And since Idol has it's mojo back....there you go
Gordon: Idol should be back. Will it? We'll see. But now we have 6 other Should and Will thoughts. Chico, start it up.
Chico: Got it.

Given that OWN, the network that gave rise of "Your OWN Show", is dropping like a lead weight, Should/will the winner... sorry, winner_S_ of "Your OWN Show" last past one season? Because in the finale, it was decided that both finalists would get their OWN show.

Jason: SHOULD: No. WILL: No. OWN hasn't found it's voice yet
Chico: Sure it is. Oprah's. :-)
Gordon: Should: Yes. I think the niche is there for both shows. Will: Yes. It's cheap and effective, and right now, OWN needs that more than anything else.
Chico: I'm in agreement with Gordon. It's cheap. It's easy. And it's uplifting for the crowd that's into all things Oprah. Oprah. Oprah Oprah...
Jason: Ok...stop with the cult of Oprah Chant :)
Chico: Oprah. Sorry.
Gordon: Next one...

We haven't spoken about this in a few weeks. Who lands the Wheel of Fortune announcer gig?

Chico: Should: Rich Fields. Obviously. Will: Jim Thornton. He's been on the mic more than most.
Jason: SHOULD and WILL: Jim Thornton. He has the calming voice that does the job for wheel. And I have to say this, Rich blew his chances.
Gordon: Should: Jim Thornton. He has the prowess and the vibe. As much as I like Rich, which I do, this isn't his vibe. Will: Thornton. I agree with Chico's sentiment that he's got more shots at it, so they are edging towards him.
Chico: On that same vibe...

The fabled booth at 33. Who takes it?

Gordon: Should: Rich Fields. I'm sorry, but no one who's been brought in is as good as he was. WILL: Honestly? No one yet. If they want a comedian, none of them fit the bill.
Jason: Gordon is right. SHOULD: Rich Fields. Will: NO ONE.
Chico: Absolutely. Though, if I'm being fair, Steve White's pretty decent when he isn't mugging it up for the camera... but I have no interest in being fair about this.
Gordon: Fair? What's fair?
Chico: Next?
Gordon: Next one...

Let's muse with The Donald: Charlie Sheen on The Apprentice.

Chico: Should: NO. Will: HELL NO.
Jason: SHOULD: YES. WILL: YES. Are you kidding. Train wrecks rule on TV.
Chico: The Apprentice is too far gone... and truth be told, so is Charlie.
Gordon: Should: Not in a million years. Will: Unfortunately, yes. Sheen's reputation will be so decimated after this that he may need the gig more than the Donald needs him to prop up ratings for his sinking flagship.
Chico: Next up...

Baggage's 10 week syndicated experiment is nearing its finish. Do we expand on it in 2011?

Jason: SHOULD AND WILL: Yes. Great stuff and the studs of the 21st century.
Gordon: Should: Yes. Will: Yes. Syndication rates to pick up shows are infinitely cheaper than new content.
Chico: Should: Yes. Will: Yes. Because something's gotta give once Don't Forget the Lyrics gets yanked. And it will.
Gordon: Finally...

Will we see the NFL in 2011?

Jason: SHOULD: Yes. will: Yes. I really believe they will get stuff done because the extension of negotiations(as of press time), means they want to get this done.
Chico: Should.... Please? I beg of you. I need something to make Sundays interesting. Will: It'll be brief by comparison, but yeah. Something's gonna happen. We will have football in 2011.
Gordon: Will: They better, for this reason: If we don't, NBC needs Sunday Night, CBS and FOX needs the weekends, and ESPN needs Monday nights filled with SOMEthing. But that something will probably be game shows, so if you're a game show fan, SHOULD: ...no.
Chico: One word.... Teammates. For the love of all that is good in the world get a deal done.
Gordon: Or maybe ESPN could bring back 2 Minute Drill.
Chico: Hmmmm. Well, now.
Jason: YUP
Gordon: While you're contemplating what could be a visceral, cerebral argument, I'll bring you something classy to ponder while we go to the Speed Round.
Chico: I can't.
Jason: LOL
Chico: Not without drooling anyway.

(Brought to you by Dancing With the Star Hookers! Watch Princess, Candy Cayne and Michaela Hunt select stars to whip into shape! Charlie Sheen hosts.)

Jason: ROFL
Gordon: Did I mention that the Escort Awards, or the Hookies, are going to be presented March 15?
Jason: Are you kidding me?
Gordon: Nope. http://thehookies.com/ It's hosted by Emmy Winner Leslie Jordan
Jason: You made me look. UGH.
Chico: I can't believe you looked.
Jason: The power of the Gordon compels me :)
Chico: Seriously, Gordon, what are you on?
Gordon: I'm on a Mission for a SPeed Round..now! Survivor: Will Russell dispatch of Matt?
Jason: Yes he will.
Chico: I think... Matt wins this one. Call me crazy.
Jason: You are crazy.
Gordon: Crazier things have happened. Who is victim #1 on Idol?
Chico: Casey, aka. 'Seth Rogen'.
Gordon: I think you have a glut of R&B. Ashthon may have some issues.
Jason: Jovani Barreto
Chico: Let me change that to Jason Block, because Jovani didn't even make the cut.
Jason: (facepalm)
Gordon: I'll go with Jason Block (tosses over Dunce Cap)
Jason: (wears it proudly)
Chico: Ha HA! America's Next Great Restaurant. Watching?
Jason: Curiousity
Gordon: Only because I have to.
Chico: Same here. Well, curiosity AND I'm writing it, so. =p
Gordon: The Race; who leaves next?
Jason: Ron and Christina
Chico: Ron & CHristina.
Gordon: Make it a triple. Any email? Nope, but we got this post on our wall. It didn't really answer our question about HSP, which now goes into the nether regions of Cyberspace... But Stephen Buus did say this about our interview with Todd Crain...

Stephen Buus
Great interview, guys; maybe your best ever!

Jason: It was the best ever. That was INTENSE.
Gordon: Thanks guys. Now here's the question this week...

WLTI'S BIG FACEBOOK QUESTION
Do you want to see Charlie Sheen on the Celebrity Apprentice?

Chico: No. I don't want to see Charlie Sheen at all.
Jason: I don't. But I can see it happening.
Gordon: I want to see the train wreck.
Chico: In fact, I think we've just about exhausted our Charlie Sheen allowance for one season let alone one week.
Jason: Yup.
Gordon: And with that, we end the show. Jason Block, pleasure as always. :-)
Jason: Always. Love to hang.
Chico: Okay, that's the show. Next week, somebody's going home. And they ain't coming back. Until next week, for Gordon and everyone at GSNN, I'm Chico Alexander. Thank you SO MUCH for reading. Game over, and spread the love.
