Episode 28.6 - Occupy WLTI
October 17
Gordon: And speaking of which, we are proud to have Jason Block join us.
Chico: *still wearing the Occupy WLTI hat*
Jason: What are we protesting against? the 1% of pretty bimbos being cast
against the 99%?
Chico: ...Exactly. Welcome back to the sit-in. Thanks for being a part of our
week and allowing us to be a part of yours.
Gordon: And hence, it's appropriate that we play Extreme Gameover, so we can
right these wrongs. We start with this...
The X-Factor. It looks a lot like The Voice. how do we renovate it?
Chico: I've said it before - It's reality TV. It's time to get real. Let's see
some real performances, some real pressure.
Jason: Yeah...go against convention. Do it in the middle of the street.
Gordon: Lets see some real inter-team challenges. 4 of Simon's group against 4
of Paula's group. Losers goes home. I wouldn't mind seeing a group completely
get knocked out
Chico: Here's an idea.. Snipe from Survivor: set it to a vote. Lowest groups
pick one to sing for their lives. Loser gets lost. what do you say?
Jason: No. That has no originality. Do something that isn't a copy of something
Gordon: Do it NCAA Style. Match groups against each other weekly. Basically
ANYTHING but what we've seen on The Voice. Next one?
Chico: Next one...
Family Feud's programmers still need a bit of a kick up the arse.
Jason: $10 a point in the bonus round. Speed up the pace a little bit. It does
drag
Chico: I've said it before. I'll say it again. AIR THE SHOWS IN ORDER.
Gordon: $10 a point is a budget killer. Speed the pace and speed up Steve
Harvey. Next one...
Race Game for 4 cars is hot. Figure out how to Supersize another Price is Right
Game
Chico: Danger Price for four cars. Same number of cars, but added danger.
Jason: Hmmmm.....
Gordon: Super Golden Road. After the $80,000 car, at the end of the Golden Road,
is a $800,000 house.
Jason: DAMN!
Chico: Crazy!
Jason: Love it.
Gordon: Next?
Chico: Next...
The Substitute's year is almost up. Anything we can do to help his class?
Jason: TONE. IT. DOWN.
Gordon: Create an adult work version of it. Imagine bosses vs. employees
Chico: Love it.
Jason: That works too.
Gordon: Next...
Iron Chef. Can we do anything here to make it snazzier?
Chico: We need another King of Iron Chefs tourney.
Jason: Best of the Best, Bingo.
Gordon: That could be fun - or civilians with an Iron Chef coach.
Chico: Either a good idea, or something that the Chew hasn't tried yet. But
theoretically could. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaandfinally...
The Sing-Off needs viewers. To get viewers, it needs...
something.
Jason: It's need faster pace and BETTER judges.
Chico: No, the judges and the pacing are fine. I think it needs a new night.
Monday's a DEAD zone.
Gordon: Make it a true Sing-off. The bottom 2 teams fight for existence
Chico: This time.. it's WAR!
Gordon: So that's Gameover. More fun after the break
(Brought to you by the X-Men Factor. Sworn to sing for a world that both fears
and hates them, these performers are out to sell... but far from perfect)
Jason: LOL.
Gordon: Scary.
Chico: Very. I can make these "X Factor" puns all year. I swear. But I'd rather
play What! Happens! First!
Gordon: Let's play. What are we starting first with?
Chico: We're starting with...
Who gets the Dancing boot first, Carson or Chaz?
Gordon: Chaz. Carson has a fan base.
Jason: Yeah its Chaz. Carson is more established.
Chico: Not to mention nimble. Chaz it is. Next?
Gordon: Next...
A woman wins Idol or a non-Singer wins America's Got Talent?
Chico: Tough call. Going for a woman winning Idol, if only because of the
chronological difference.
Jason: Woman wins Idol. America will NEVER put it in a non-singer on AGT. This
was the best year for them to do it and they couldn't.
Gordon: Woman wins Idol. It's doable - they just need to be more well-rounded
and hawt
Chico: Kelly's voice and Carrie's body. That's your winner.
Gordon: Sure is. next one?
Chico: Next one...
Another Jeopardy! player goes to 10-plus, or WWTBAM crowns its first millionaire
of season 12
Gordon: Player goes to 10-plus. We almost had it this season already
Chico: I believe Joon was the closest at seven.
Jason: Player goes to 10 PLUS. It could and SHOULD happen.
Gordon: Next one...
A Real Housewife gets on Dancing With the Stars, or a Real
Housewife gets on Jeopardy!
Jason: A Real Housewife goes Dancing. TOO EASY.
Chico: Dancing. They seem to be more of the Wheel type.
Gordon: Jeopardy. I don't think ABC will put on an NBC / BRAVO star. Conversely,
Jeopardy is Syndicated, so they may not have the same qualms.
Chico: I dunno. Clay Aiken was supposed to be on Celebrity Apprentice
(allegedly).
Gordon: That's NBC taking in a star, not ABC
Chico: Just saying. Next...
The Hub gets a new game show... or Nick gets a new game show.
Jason: It will be....NICK. The Hub is in trouble.
Gordon: Nick gets a new game show. They've been doing very well as of late, and
with the hub's budget issues, they not be getting much of a new anything
Chico: Nick gets a new show... and it's a redo of Double Dare (please please
please) ... please.
Jason: Please.
Gordon: Last one...
What happens first...A Bachelor gets married, or Chico gets on ANY game show.
Chico: Bachelor gets married. :-\
Jason: Chico gets on a show.
Gordon: Chico gets on a show. I have no faith in that franchise
Chico: You both have too much faith in me, but I'll keep on fighting.
Gordon: We fight the good fight after this break
(brought to you by Political Family Feud. All of our survey questions were asked
from the NYC Protesters. Do you really know the pulse of America?)
Jason: Cast the 99! Cast the 99!
Chico: I have an example question... Example Fast Money, actually. Guys, help me
out here. Name another word for crook.
Jason: POLITICIAN.
Chico: A food you can cook on an open fire.
Gordon: Bank of America Nuts.
Chico: How many jobs were you fired from over the past 10 years.
Jason: 1
Chico: Someone whose house you'd like to sneak into.
Jason: Barack Obama
Chico: Finally, a word used to describe NYPD.
Gordon: Speedy. Speaking of which, Speed Round Starts...now! Survivor: Who
leaves now?
Chico: I think Brandon follows them.
Gordon: Brandon sticks around for 1 more week as he watches Mikalia leave
Jason: Edna is my choice
Gordon: DWTS: Who leaves?
Jason: CHAZ's luck finally runs out now that Mom saw him dance.
Gordon: I agree with that.
Chico: She was crying... But yeah, I think it's time.
Gordon: Any mail this week?
Chico: Hold on... okay, no. But we've posted a new question on Facebook.com/wlti.gsnn
The question...
"The one show I was looking forward to this fall is..."
Gordon: Best answers get on the show. That's it for this episode. Thanks to Jason
for attending
Jason: Thank you for having me. Sor
Chico: Next week, we review Fort Boyard, and then we'll break down the final 16.
G, get your coat.
Gordon: I'm off (Grabs Coat) we'll grab your attention in 7 days. until then,
this is Gordon saying Game Over and Spread the Love. |
