Episode 16.5
October 8
Jason: Wow. Haven't heard of that show.
Gordon: Well, the show is a fly-by-night.
Rob: Oy!
Chico: No comment.
Mike: Does that come with an Indians world championship for 2007?
Rob: It's either the Indians or the Rockies.
Mike: Those are my picks for the World Series.
Chico: Come on.. no love for the Cubbies?
Jason: Cubbies are down 2-0 in the 3rd in game 3 as we speak.
Mike: Down 2-0? No. Down 2-0 in the series is what I meant.
Rob: Yup.
Jason: And they are down 2-0. in Game 3
Don: Ouch.
Chico: Damn.
Mike: I'd love to see the Cubbies make it to the World Series, but the
Rockies have been torrid over the past month.
Rob: They are just on a heater as of late.
Gordon: So now that we have a crowd, its time to abuse some lists.
Chico: Woo!
Rob: Gotta love abusing lists.
Gordon: You all ready?
Mike: Let's do it
Rob: Yes, Commissioner Gordon.
Gordon: First list...
Creating commercials
Remembering events in your past
Being smarter than a 5th grader
Chico: (DING!)
Gordon: Chico?
Chico: Mark Burnett joints?
Gordon: Ill accept it
Jason: what was the actual answer?
Gordon: Shows on or will be on the air from Mark Burnett. The latest one -
jingles, about teams of contestants who can come up with the most effective
commercial.
Chico: Like the Apprentice... only with more singing. I can dig that.
Gordon: Now we've been hard on Burnett recently, but I like this idea. As
long as they keep it mainstream and not alienate the audience like they did on
On
The Lot, this could be fun.
Don: Sounds interesting.
Rob: I think Burnett will learn from that.
Chico: Yeah.
Jason: I am not sure. I think Burnett needs some time away from TV to create
the next big thing. He is eating himself.
Chico: He needs to stop and enjoy married life before he becomes married to
tha game.
Gordon: He is copying himself, true. I'm hoping there's enough new in this
and not Apprentice lite.
Chico: Yeah. Next up...
Power of 10...
Rob: Buzz
Chico: Rob?
Rob: Michael Davies shows?
Chico: True, but no. Continuing.
Power of 10...
American Gladiators...
Merv Griffin's Crosswords...
Mike: (DING)
Chico: Mike?
Mike: No answer. Crosswords doesn't work with my guess for the first 2.
Chico: Okay. Continuing..
Merv Griffin's Crosswords...
Gordon: (HATERIZE ME!)
Chico: Gordon?
Gordon: I have 2 ideas. I'll go with the first. People that have been used
from other shows as contestants or hosts for the current one.
Chico: umm... nope. What was the second one?
Gordon: The other idea is ideas rehashed from the 80's to be put in cheaper
(and not as well) clones.
Chico: Nope. This one was a little difficult.
Gordon: That's all we get?
Rob: I think I have another idea.
Identity...
Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?...
Chico: ... that's the list.
Jason: No clue
Gordon: (HATERIZE ME!)
Chico: Gordon?
Gordon: Got it
Don: I'm stumped.
Gordon: Shows that are being shipped across the pond with foreign versions.
Chico: ... I'll take it. It was actually "American Shows Being Marketed at
MIPCOM". We're as good at exporting as we are at importing.
Jason: I like that.
Gordon: Next one...
The Big Brother rotating Key Wheel
Ashley's and Courtney's Underwear in Survivor
Rob: buzz
Gordon: Robert?
Rob: Reality show objects being auctioned off on Ebay
Gordon: Uh...no. (BUZZ) Continuing...
The Wheel 25th People Magazine Advertisement
Jason: BUZZ
Gordon: Jason
Jason: Places where advertising space is sold either on its show or other
shows
Gordon: Courtney's underwear has advertising on it? (BUZZ)
Don: lol
Chico: (OVER HERE!)
Gordon: Chico?
Chico: Things that are doubled in size?
Gordon: No. (BUZZ!) Continuing.
Biggs' Partner in the Final Fantasy Games
Don: *DING*
Gordon: Don?
Don: Things that have to do with a wedge?
Gordon: Yes!
Chico: Rats. He took mine.
Gordon: The FF reference gave it away?
Rob: From FFVIII Right?
Chico: yeah
Don: Yeah.
Gordon: The last one was a Trivial Pursuit piece.
Mike: You couldn't have said "The Cleveland Indians". We have a darn good
Wedge.
Gordon: What wedge would that be?
Mike: Eric Wedge. The manager.
Gordon: Uh...no.
Mike: Haterade.
Gordon: Yep :)
Jason: You guys need Raid.
Mike: Jason, that was our secret weapon!
Gordon: Seriously, we have our first double wedge on Wheel Of Fortune.
Jason: That's cool.
Gordon: Next one?
Chico: Next up...
Princess...
Inventor....
Jason: (THIS WAY UP!)
Chico: Block?
Jason: Shows with the pre-fix "American" in front of it.
Chico: Yep.
Jason: Yes. Whoo-hoo!
Chico: The others: Idol, Talent, Model, and Most Smartest Model. America,
American or America's. Seems like the go-to idea for reality shows. Take
something your looking for, slap "American" on it.
Rob: And could guarantee you at least 2-3 seasons.
Jason: Happens in all countries, though.
Chico: I love this country.
Jason: So do I.
Chico: Oh yeah. It's not limited to America no-way.
Mike: Who in this room doesn't love America? Don. Stinkin' Canadian.
Chico: We love Canada, too.
Jason: LOL We do. I love their casinos.
Chico: Next?
Jason: They look nice in the magazines.
Mike: Agreed Jason!
Gordon: I've cashed in a Canadian Casino. I like it. Next one...
I was in a reality show with hot babes.
Mike: (BELL SOUND GOES HERE)
Gordon: Mike?
Mike: Rock of Love?
Gordon: no (buzz) continuing
I was on a show that we created our own horror movie
Jason: (THIS WAY UP)
Gordon: Jason
Jason: I am Jonny Fairplay
Gordon: Not in the correct List Abuse answer form. (BUZZ)
Mike: Oh crap, you're looking for a person, not a show. *headdesk*
Rob: (I KNOW!)
Gordon: Rob.
Rob: Things Johnny Fairplay would say.
Gordon: Thank you, Rob.
Jason: *headdesk* He has not had the "best Week ever" (TM)
Chico: Nope.
Gordon: Uh...no.
Chico: In fact, he probably had the worst week ever.
Rob: I'm hoping that "I was a frequent personality for TNA that got his butt
kicked by Brian Urlacher" would be there.
Don: lol
Gordon: He probably would like to have the past 3 months done over again
Chico: Yep.
Rob: Maybe the past 3 years.
Chico: Perhaps the past life.
Rob: He knew that TNA was a mistake for him
Jason: Not in the least.
Rob: Wait, didn't he win $25,000 from Ty Murray's Bullriding Challenge?
Jason: And he is a lower level media ho
Gordon: He's a media ho. Do you think he truly cares?
Don: Considering he once lied about his grandma on Survivor... I don't think
he'd care.
Chico: No.
Gordon: Ok. last one?
Chico: Last one...
A native Russian...
A native Argentine...
An alleged DOND case girl...
Rob: (I KNOW)
Chico: Rob?
Rob: People that got fired from NBC in the past week
Chico: Uh.... no.
Mike: (BELL SOUND GOES HERE AGAIN)
Chico: Mike?
Mike: People on that model show with Ben Stein... America's Most Smartest
Model
Chico: bingo. The Russian is Andre. The Argentine is Gaston. The alleged case
girl was Jamie... although tell me... have ANY of you ever seen this...
http://www.buddytv.com/articles/americas-most-smartest-model/profile/jamie_everett.aspx
? I don't think so.
Gordon: She can carry my brief.....case
Rob: Oye
Mike: She does not look familiar.
Don: I do not recognize her.
Jason: Nope...still smoking though.
Chico: Oh yeah. I make it a habit to know the names and faces of DOND
ladies... I do not recognize this one.
Mike: Man, I think I just got a huge offer just looking at her.
Chico: Not that I would mind one bit.
Jason: Don't lose it, Mike.
Chico: Okay, the banker would like to take a final break to calculate the
offer.
Mike: Don't lose the offer? That's what Viagra is for!
Jason: You calculate in private, don't you?
Mike: Math teachers know how to calculate
Rob: I think I'll leave that alone.
Chico: Me too... GO TO BLACK! GO TO BLACK!
(Sponsored by Top Chef 4: Making Menudo. The Chefs make Menudo the
old-fashioned way - in the kitchen. All sous chefs are the children from Kid
Nation and
the show is taped in New Mexico to defray the costs.)
Chico: Aaaaand cue the cute kid in the red coat. "I'm really hungry, but like
Martin Luther King, Jr. said... I have a dream!"
Gordon: And for those of you who don't know what Menudo is....what is it,
Chico?
Chico: Menudo is a traditional Mexican/Ecuadorian soup. It's spicy, and it's
made of tripe. Good eating. Hey, in case you haven't heard. Next week is
WLTI's big 5th birthday bash... and you're invited to the party.
Don: WHOO!
Jason: Really?
Mike: Sweet!
Chico: If you haven't voted on Roleplay or what game you want to see, then do
so... here.
Chico: We've got some good ones so far... It'll be hard to choose just six.
Gordon: We've gotten some great suggestions so far - and we want more, of
course.
Chico: But if you have any ideas, we want to hear'em!
Mike: I've voted. So should you.
Chico: You can vote more than once if that helps. But before we go to the
party, let's go to the Big Finish!
Rob: BTW, Score update: D-Backs 3 - Cubs 1 Top of the 5th.
Chico: Augh.
Mike: It's early. The Indians didn't strike until the 8th inning on Friday.
Maybe some bugs will invade Wrigley Field?
Chico: Let's hope.
Gordon: Ohio and Illinois are close.
Chico: Yep.
Mike: Chicago is 6 1/2 hours from Cleveland. If the bugs flew due west at 12
miles per hour since 10 PM Friday, they could make it to Wrigley by the 8th.
Gordon: Big Finish - We say goodbye to the male model in dancing. Who are we
saying goodbye to next?
Jason: Jennie Garth
Chico: Your nemesis and arch-rival, Mark Cuban.
Mike: Yeah, I gotta go with Cubes too.
Gordon: I'm gonna go with Mark...hopefully
Rob: It'll more than likely be Mark Cuban.
Gordon: Survivor - whos next?
Chico: Courtney.
Rob: Gotta agree with Chico, Courtney.
Gordon: I think Courtney and Dave both have issues on their respective tribes
Chico: It depends on who's got the Immunity Idol.
Gordon: So with 7 or more Million Dollar cases, we'll see a winner this week
on Deal or No Deal...right?
Chico: If NBC has anything to do with it, we won't see one until sweeps. If
not, though, then... maybe
Jason: Nope
Mike: We'll see a winner this week.
Chico: But the contestant will be too chickens(^_^) to go all the way.
Rob: No, Evilness will abound. My prediction 3-5 $1m cases out first round.
Mike: I think we'll have the $1M vs. $1M final 2 case matchup in the next few
eps.
Gordon: I wonder if the reason why DOND is 1 week is to get the
winner...right....at....sweeps.
Don: I hope we see one, but the way things are going, I have my doubts.
Gordon: Only 4 more episodes until November.
Chico: Fall entries... are either of them getting any better?
Gordon: Ummmm...lemme think....done thinking. NO.
Mike: At least Temptation is airing in order.
Rob: Crosswords is fine.
Gordon: Though that segues into this - our buddy Jeff Suchard's episode will
be in the second half hour of the double-run this Friday. Good luck, Jeff!
Mike: I hope Crosswords makes a second season. I would love to be on that
show.
Chico: I would also love to be on the show... even though it would mean
taking a week off of work to travel to LA.
Gordon: Here's a Crossword for amount of mail we got this week. Z _ _ _
Rob: (buzzin)
Gordon: Rob?
Rob: Zero. Z-E-R-O. (ba-LING!)
Gordon: Right. Now you guys know how to fix that. Chico - tell them how to
fix it.
Chico: Either by dropping us a line at
wlti@gameshownewsnet.com or by
stopping by our Myspace profile at
www.myspace.com/wltiongsnn.
Gordon: That ends the show. Thanks to our panel this week for hanging out
with us
Jason: Always fun
Don: Always nice.
Rob: Loved it.
Mike: It's an honor.
Chico: Next week's the birthday show. Tell your friends. Until then, he's
Gordon Pepper, I'm Chico Alexander, the show is We Love to Interrupt... Game
over
and Spread the love.
Mike: You heard the man. Spread it.
Rob: Will do.
