Episode 20.9
March 9

Jason: LOL
Chico: So Gordon... what do you think of C&G's Tomato Parmesan Bisque?
Gordon: There seems to be a gavel in mine.
Chico: Mm.. tasty.
Gordon: Which means (bangs gavel), WLTI's Game Show Court is in session.
Chico: Here come da judge, here come da judge...
Gordon: The less-than-honorable Gordon Pepper is presiding. ORDER IN MY COURT!

(doink doink)

Jason: I'll take one Super Big Gulp of coffee.
Gordon: Thank you. We have 6 cases that preside to you jury, and you give us the verdict. First one...

ACCUSED: Sandy Burgin

Chico: The charge?

CHARGE: Public Disturbance and inciting a riot that led to her dismissal on Survivor



Jason: Evidence?
Gordon: Sandy's got a mouth. Maybe too big. Was her annoying and continuing diatribes the reason why she's gone?
Chico: Nope. The fact that she couldn't find the Immunity Idol is why she was gone. She was marked from Day 1. NOT GUILTY
Jason: She was marked from Day 1, because she had a yap the size of the Amazon. GUILTY.
Don: While it's true that she was marked from the start, her mouth didn't help her cause any. GUILTY.
Gordon: I think she had a shot to integrate herself with the group. She already had a vote of confidence for her because of her strength, but the size of her mouth got in the way. GUILTY! What is the sentence?
Jason: Read "How to Win Friends and Influence People"...with Duct tape over her mouth.
Chico: JUSTICE!
Gordon: Next case?
Chico: Next case...

ACCUSED: Bravo.
CHARGE: Altogether now...MAKING COP-AAAAAAAYS!

Jason: Evidence?
Chico: The Fashion Show coming later... Make Me a Supermodel now.
Jason: Please. They were making copays before Genetic Engineering was cool. GUILTY.
Don: Indeed. GUILTY.
Gordon: If it models like a copy, sashays like a copy and customizes like a copy...you got yourself a copy. GUILTY!
Chico: GUILTY! Sentence?
Jason: Groveling to Lifetime and the Weinstein Company and paying them so we can see Season 6 of Project Runway. And kissing Tyra Banks....feet.
Chico: Heh... Gross.
Gordon: Next one...

ACCUSED: The Fog

Jason: The Fog? Ok...
Chico: Leave the fog out of this =p

CHARGE: Endangering a Teams chance to win The Amazing Race.



Jason: Evidence?
Chico: I think I can answer this one...
Gordon: Certain flights got delayed...and then cancelled by Fog, which left Brad and Victoria Hunt 18 hours behind everyone else - a hole they could not get out of and eliminated them from the game.
Chico: Fog came in on little cat feet and grounded all the flights out of Holland.
Jason: But if they would have made a better choice...they still might still be in it. NOT GUILTY.
Chico: Now fog just happens, but whose idea was it to choose that flight? Could've played it straight and still have a chance. NOT GUILTY.
Gordon: This early in the game, you're better off staying in the group. The 2 hours of success you get (which will probably be eliminated in the equalizer) will be offset by 18 hours of failure. NOT GUILTY.
Don: Could they have checked the weather report for Holland before picking their flight, to see if there would be fog?
Gordon: Sure could have.
Don: Then NOT GUILTY.
Gordon: The Fog is free to go. I don't know what we could have really done to detain it, anyways.
Chico: Let's stay on the Race to see the REAL Morons this week...

ACCUSED: Victor Jih.
CHARGE: Impeding on a fellow Racer's progress...

Chico: Now, when you're looking for a path, what colors are designated as "Race Colors", class?
Jason: Red and Yellow.
Don: Red and yellow!
Gordon: I'll go with Red and Yellow, sure.
Chico: Good! Victor was dragging his partner Tammy through a forest with red and WHITE markings and as a result, circled all around the mountain.
Jason: Victor saw Red and White...and didn't go back until it was almost too late. He was a moron. GUILTY.
Chico: Were it not for said fog, they could've lost the whole enchilada.
Don: Looks like an open-and-shut case to me. GUILTY!
Gordon: I blame the fog. Not Guilty.
Don: In fact, I think I see that fog outside right now...
Chico: You blame the fog for Victor & Tammy's detour (and not in the good way...) ... YEAH. GUILTY.
Gordon: Sentence?
Jason: An art class with kindergartners drawing with red and yellow.
Gordon: Can I add that Victor gets to be the canvas?
Chico: Judges? *ding!*
Jason: JUSTICE!
Gordon: Next one.

ACCUSED: Andrew 'Dice' Clay

Jason: GUILTY!
Gordon: Ahem.
Jason: Sorry :)
Don: lol

CHARGE: Media Ho-ing without a license

Gordon: As we announce the debut of...



Jason: LOL. Evidence?
Gordon: The men's team loses and Andrew decides to fall upon his sword and offers himself up as a sacrifice. Not exactly someone who'd be up for competing to win a game.
Jason: Combine that with the fact he didn't want to get dirty making cupcakes (which tasted bland)...GUILTY.
Chico: I heard they made a rookie mistake... Confusing sugar for salt. Just thought I'd point that out.
Don: GUILTY.
Chico: Yep. GUILTY.
Gordon: If you want to be on an Apprentice show and you want out, The Donald will show you where to go very quickly. GUILTY!
Jason: You remember that class that is drawing on Victor?
Chico: Right.
Jason: Andrew should bake that class a batch of cupcakes.
Chico: Eww.
Gordon: JUSTICE!
Chico: Isn't torture illegal?
Gordon: For Andrew or the kids who have to eat it?
Jason: Both.
Chico: Right. And finally..

ACCUSED: Kevin Baker.
CHARGE: Illegal launder-(y)-ing

Chico: The evidence comes in this question for $300 from Tuesday's Millionaire.
Jason: alright

Introduced in 1898, what brand of soap got its name from the two kinds of oil that were used to produce it?
A: Ivory
B: Neutrogena
C: Dove
D: Palmolive

Jason: Um...D?
Chico: Um... Yeah?
Gordon: D it is.
Don: Yep.
Chico: You know what Kevin said?
Jason: Go on?
Chico: A.
Jason: (THUD)
Chico: Because we're all familiar with the Ive oil and the ory oil.
Jason: Ivory was the soap that was pumped with AIR. But he didn't read the question...dirty boy. GUILTY.
Chico: It's 99.44% pure.... and it floats. I'm not talking about soap, by the way. GUILTY!
Don: My jaw dropped when he gave his answer. GUILTY.
Gordon: The only think that's ivory is his cranium. GUILTY
Jason: Sentence?
Chico: One word.. Lifebuoy. Blech. Because Palmolive has that piquant after dinner flavor that he just doesn't deserve today.
Jason: No...he should eat a bar of Lava...with Pumice...hmmmm...crunchy
Chico: Munchmunchmunch!
Gordon: I think you are all getting a little too hungry. Let's break for lunch.
Jason: Alright.
Gordon: When we come back, we exchange gavels for buzzers.
Chico: Seeyouafterthebreak!

(Brought to you by Extreme Do-over. We give 5 idolists one last shot to make the Top 14 as they perform...on a platform on top of a pit of alligators. One person advances, 4 people become dinner. Starring Von Smith, Junot Joyner, Kai Kalama, Felecia Barton and Tatiana Del Toro.)

Jason: Isn't Tatiana against the Animal Cruelty laws?
Gordon: Then she can sacrifice herself for the common good :)
Chico: There you go. Everyone wins. Welcome back... You're probably wondering why Gordon's hair is all spikwearing a suit with no tie.
Gordon: Hey, it's better than a tie and a birthday suit.
Chico: ...ew.
Gordon: We have 3 people. We have 1 host. We have podiums. Anyone up for some Blame Game?
Jason: YEAH BABY!
Don: Sure!
Chico: Let's play the Blame Game!
Gordon: We have our 9 numbers up there. Chico, you defend, so you select first.
Chico: 4 for Bobby Orr.
Gordon: 4 is...

10 POINT CARD!

Chico: BOOM!
Jason: Nice.

CHICO	JASON	DON
10	0	0

Gordon: Just a reminder, the last tine you did this, you hit The Home Shopping Zone right afterwards.
Chico: Yeah, don't remind me.
Gordon: Select again, Chairman
Chico: Hmmm...thinking of Mark Messier's numbers....Screw it. 8
Gordon: 8 is....

THE HOME SHOPPING ZONE

Gordon: Good job.
Chico: ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
Don: Ouch.
Jason: Ouch.
Gordon: Well, we get THAT out of the way early.
Chico: Show me what my points bought me.
Gordon: You just spent 10 points on THIS!

It's all the rage! It's what your friends always wanted! It's your very own Kristen MacNamara and Nathaniel Marshall Karaoke Party Set! Now you can sing to the oldies just like the New Yawkers do. And we'll throw in Anoop Desai's autograph as a bonus treat! This party set is usually sold for $69, but here at The Blame Game, you just bought it for 10 points!

Chico: Yeah, I just bought it alright.
Jason: Complete with Headband?

(Sorry, Headband not included)

Jason: LOL

CHICO	JASON	DON
0	0	0

Chico: Can I do that again?
Gordon: No. Hey Chico! I have a board with 7 spaces on it! Pick one!
Chico: Okay, if you say so. One!
Gordon: 1 is...a Fictional character. Hands on buzzers.

I was born on April 12, 1976. I have been on many different shows, including Conan O'Brien and Ellen Degeneres. Perhaps the biggest moment of my prime time career was in June of 2006 on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. My first place of origin was the Genoa City Memorial Hospital, which is where I was flown to if a player lost the game. My first reference was as 'Fritz' by Dennis James, but I have come to be known by other names during my 30+ year stint on TV.

Don: *BUZZ*
Gordon: Don?
Don: The mountain climber from Cliff Hangers?
Gordon: I'll accept that. Hans/Yodelly Guy/Cliff Hanger Dude. All correct answers. Now Don. Do we blame the silliness on Friday's show on Hans, because he went up 30 steps on the first object?
Don: Hans had nothing to do with the suckage known as Jack Wagner's multiple appearances. I blame it on whoever decided to bring Jack onto the show that day.
Jason: The suckage was in fact due to the person who was idiotic to bid $55 on the first item. That is who put Hans in Danger.
Chico: Let's see... Drew puts less emphasis on the game and the players and more on Jack... the players can't play worth a damn.... and Jack is just... being goofy. I say there's plenty of blame to go around.
Gordon: Chico has the more encompassing and correct answer.
Chico: Thank you, thank you, you're far too kind.

CHICO	JASON	DON
5	0	10

Gordon: But it's Don's board. Don, please select
Don: 7, please.
Gordon: 7 is... is famous person

I was born on July 10, 1982 in Davis, California. I originally didn't want to be in the spotlight, but the first show I was ever on changed that. Since that point, I've had my own show, cameo'd on Dancing With The Stars and been on Jimmy Kimmel Live. More recently, I was brought back to a later season of the show I was first on, but not as the star. Instead, I was an option for the current star, who didn't select me, but went with someone else.

Chico: (OVER HERE!)
Gordon: Chico
Chico: .... Li'l Romeo... I blanked.
Gordon: INCORRECT (BUZZ) out of the rest of the question.

The person who rejected me was the person who I first rejected, after being rejected once before by Brad Womack. But the person who I rejected, Jason Mesnick, has gotten his spotlight on his own, thanks to me.

Chico: *head bang*
Jason: THIS WAY!
Gordon: Jason?
Jason: You are Deanna Pappas
Gordon: I am. And Jason's on the board. Is Deanna Pappas, by not selecting Jason and going with Jesse, the man who she dumped, to blame for this Jason mess?
Jason: Absolutely not. The only person to blame for this mess is Jason Mesnick. He was the one who fell out of love, and didn't have the cojones to tell Melissa before this nationally televised fiasco. He, and only he, is to blame.
Chico: On the contrary...Had DeAnna gone with the winning team instead of chasing the pretty boy, we wouldn't HAVE a Jason Mesnick mess...
Don: Well, Deanna didn't know that such a mess would occur if she made the decision she made...Jason made his own decision, and I think it's his own fault.
Gordon: Jason baked the cupcakes, but Deanna made the ingredients, If she picked Jason, there's no show. 5 to Chico.

CHICO	JASON	DON
10	10	10

Gordon: Jason, it's your board.
Jason: Three way Tie...#6
Gordon: #6. Question. This is a famous thing.

I was created in 1879 and was first sold as Floor Cleaner and as a cure for gonorrhea.

Jason: BRING ME THE HEAD OF JACK WAGNER!
Gordon: Jason?
Jason: You are...Coca-Cola
Gordon: Good guess...but wrong (BUZZ) out of the question.
Jason: Oh well.

I hit my stride in the 1920's, when I was sold over the counter, but in 1976, the FTC said that I could not advertise that I could be a cure for the common cold. In the 1930's I advertised that I could be used to prevent dandruff, but that was also disproven. What I could do, though, was cure a medical condition that was actually made up by the advertising group in a 1921 campaign. As of right now, there were 8 versions of me, including Cool Mint and Vanilla Mint.

Chico: (OVER HERE!)
Jason: (bangs head)
Gordon: Chico?
Chico: What is Listerine?
Gordon: I'll take it in the form of a question, sure.
Chico: YAY!
Jason: LOL
Gordon: And kids, if you have Gonorrhea, don't think that Listerine can cure it.
Jason: ROFL!
Gordon: For 5 points, was the over-excessive use of Listerine to be blamed for Marisol not winning $500,000 on Wednesday's Deal Or No Deal?
Chico: No, 'twas Marisol's own darned fault. AS I said before... Fear is the mind killer.
Jason: BUZZ
Gordon: Jason?
Jason: Listerine was to blame...it was on her mind for the 30 seconds she was rinsing when she should have been going forward for that one more case.
Don: I blame Marisol. Sure, she got $103,000, but with 2 big cases up there, she should have kept going.
Gordon: I think that Listerine was involved in the decision making. The fumes got to everyone. 5 to everybody.

CHICO	JASON	DON
25	15	15

Chico: IT BUUUUURNS!
Gordon: Ok Chico, your board.
Chico: Straight up the middle. 5
Gordon: Looking for a famous person.

I was born on March 3, 1962, in Wrightsville, Georgia. I was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1999.

Jason: GOT IT!
Gordon: Jason?
Jason: You are Herschel Walker
Gordon: Nicely solved.
Jason: (pumps fist)
Gordon: Now The Donald, I think, did the right thing to get rid of someone who wasn't there, but was Herschel Walker, who was the project manager, really to blame for their loss?
Jason: Yes. He was. He has a too laid back style and was, in part, to blame for the loss.
Chico: Herschel was a little lax, but the Dice wasn't there, as you said... so hey... Get rid of the dead weight.
Don: He should have tried harder to keep Dice in line, but I'm not sure how much of a difference that would have made, to be honest. I mean, it's possible that Dice would have still just left.
Gordon: The Donald put in the $15,000 to equalize the sales part with the taste, but the fault in this challenge was clearly lack of sales. Herschel is way too laid back to grab sales, and I think he was the problem here. 5 more to Jason.

CHICO	JASON	DON
25	30	10

Jason: And as a personal note, when we saw Herschel at the truck, he was just standing there. He wasn't doing a damn thing.
Gordon: Yes. The people who were hustling were Scott Hamilton and Jesse James.
Jason: And Tom Green.
Gordon: and Dice. Herschel was standing there and Rodman was sleeping in the truck. Jason, select. please.
Jason: 2
Gordon: 2 is... a famous person

I was born January 8, 1938 in Flint, Michigan, but was raised in Pasadena California. I made it big in the music business, promoting groups such as The Beatles and The Rolling Stones.

Jason: I KNOW IT!
Gordon: Jason was first.
Jason: You are the man...the legend...BOB EUBANKS.
Gordon: That's correct. Jason is on a roll. As you know, The Newlywed Game is going to air in around a month or so on The Game Show Network. is Bob Eubanks to blame...for THE SUCCESS that the show has had throughout the years?
Jason: While Eubanks is the glue that holds the show together...it's the show that counts. Two couples who think they know each other. It even spawned "I'm Telling." which was the same game for brothers and sisters. It's the show, people.
Chico: I think it has more to do with the willingness of the players to go along with it... Of course it helps that Bob likes to play with fire.... a lot.
Don: The show's format is what made the show successful, but Bob did help.
Gordon: It's definitely partly the show, but formats like 'I'm Telling' and the lack of success with it shows that the host is a major part of the game. No one really said it and everyone sort of did, so 5 for everyone.
Jason: OK.

CHICO	JASON	DON
30	45	20

Gordon: Ok Jason - 2 spots left. 3 or 9.
Jason: 9
Gordon: 9 is ...famous person. And this is 25, so anyone can win.
Jason: Got it.

I was born October 11, 1969 in Phoenix, Arizona. I wanted to be the best at my craft when I was 2, and I won my first championship when I was 5. I was the Arizona All-Around Champion when I was 18 and was the youngest ever PRCA, which put me in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Chico: (OVER HERE!)
Gordon: Chico?
Chico: Ty Murray?
Gordon: Ty Murray is...RIGHT!
Jason: Nice Job.
Gordon: Chico once again defends his title. Question - Is Ty Murray to blame for Jewel being out of Dancing With The Stars?
Chico: I'd say no. If I wanted to be pragmatic, I'd say Jewel and her partner brought it on herself for pushing too hard...But ABC is the one that pressed for the lineup, so... give it to them.
Jason: I would say yes. I heard there was a kinky roping game that went too far...
Gordon: Were you videotaping it?
Jason: Don't I wish :)
Chico: There goes our PG rating.
Don: Heh. I'd say no. It occurred during training for the competition, so I'd just rule it as accidental.
Gordon: I'll give Chico the points. At the end of the game..

CHICO	JASON	DON
60	45	20

Gordon: Chico, the floor is yours. 30 seconds. Go.
Chico: I have a bone to pick with developers of game show software.... after playing old NES adaptations of Feud and American Gladiators... both of which sucked. If you're going to cull from source material to make a video game that game show fans will enjoy, do your research first! Ludia seems to be the best at it, so props to them. TPIR, Hell's Kitchen... both acceptable.
Gordon: Thank you Chico. And now...we break.
Chico: Speed Round after this!

(Brought to you by the Outta Time Watch Company of South Attleboro, Massachusetts, who bring you this public service message... If you haven't sprung forward yet... go do it while the guys are breaking... They'll still be here when you return...)

Jason: And remember check your smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector.
Chico: Remember the rule of thumb... Check your clock, check your batteries.
Jason: More sun, baseball...spring and summer. Ah.
Gordon: And more Speed Round, which starts...NOW! Idol - who's the first to go?
Chico: Matt Giraud.
Gordon: I'll go Michael Sarver
Jason: Um...Jasmine Murray
Don: I'll go with Matt.
Gordon: Survivor - Who bites it next?
Chico: Erinn... Please for the love of God.
Jason: Still with Erinn
Don: Yeah, Erinn.
Gordon: I think Erinn and Taj both have issues
Chico: Who's the weaker of the two, though.
Gordon: They are both on different teams
Chico: For now. Remember, this is Survivor. And we haven't had a shuffle, and we're about due.
Gordon: The Amazing Race. can Tammy and Victor get it together?
Don: I'm thinking not.
Chico: They better.
Jason: Yes I do.
Gordon: I think they will and I think the blondes are gone.
Chico: You're still holding out hope.
Gordon: They have to leave sometime..don't they?
Jason: Yes.
Chico: right.
Gordon: But we love your mail. What do we have this week?
Chico: We have this from our friend Josh Johannesen... Thanks, Josh!

Gordon: Thanks Josh. I don't disagree with you, but at the same time, and this is the problem with the audience on Idol, when you expect more from someone, you're judging them differently and giving the person you are not expecting as much of an unfair advantage. They have the same playing field, and if anything Stefan should have a greater edged from his body of work in the season.
Jason: But again...are you saying (in the Idol comparison)...David Archuleta should have won because he sang good at the beginning or at the end?
Chico: That's why I say you don't launch with the big guns early. Start out strong, but not too strong... then out deliver every time.
Gordon: No. That's not what I'm saying.
Chico: But in this case, you've got to perform EVERY SINGLE TIME. Hosea did... that's why he won it.
Gordon: As I said before, Stefan was the villain. Hosea was the 'hero' who had less of a standard to maintain. Its almost like I'm a pro bowler and you're the amateur. If I average a 230 and only shoot a 200, while you average a 130 and you shoot a 190, people will laud over your performance because they don't expect a 190 from you. But you don't give a prize to the person who shot a 190. But it seems like the judges will.
Chico: They'll reward a great meal for someone known for good meals. And when someone else has a great meal, but is known for fantastic meals... not so much?
Jason: That's G's theory...isn't it?
Gordon: Basically. If Stefan had an ok day but was still good enough to beat Hosea, you don't give it to Hosea because they were surprised at that he could do it if Stefan's dish, though not up to the judges standards of him, is still better than Hoseas. Now Chico, defend your European A-Hole comment on Fabio.
Chico: He's an A-hole... and he's from Europe. NEED I SAY MORE?
Gordon: Guess not. Next one?
Chico: Next... Steve Thompson. Thanks, Steve!

Gordon: Unfortunately, Steve, not enough people missed it. It only scored a 3.8 and was quietly yanked.
Don: I'm not surprised.
Chico: According to the Futon Critic, its ultimate fate is yet to be determined, but with numbers like those, it's pretty much dead. But the show did complete its 8-episode season. That's probably why you haven't seen it.
Gordon: I got an email
Jason: Alright.
Gordon: I have one from Rob Hoffman. Thanks Rob!

Gordon: Jillian starts on May 18. And if Molly takes him back, that would make HER the biggest moron in the history of The Bachelor.

Gordon: We all thought so too, Rob, until Von picked the wrong time to sing 2 bad song choices.
Jason: Close, Rob.
Chico: Well, two out of three ain't bad
Jason: Yup.
Gordon: But now let's talk about future mails. Where should the fans send them to, Chico?
Chico: Send them to us at wlti@gameshownewsnet.com OR you can check us out on Myspace and Facebook. Just search WLTI. It's all good in the hood. Hopefully we've supplied you with enough information to last you until next week. It's up to you to figure out how to use it.
Jason: Lots of stuff today.
Chico: So for Gordon, Jason, Don, and everyone at GSNN, I'm Chico Alexander, and until next week... game over... and spread the love.
