October 31

Jason: ewwwww
Chico: It's the only food-like substance I have...*takes a sip*.... *spits it out*
Gordon: You do know that in the commercials to make it look white, they don't use milk. They use a substance made from glue.
Jason: yes.
Chico: Photographs better.
Gordon: So what do we got, gluemaster?
Chico: We have 12 singers. and like it or not, one of them will get $5 million. Which one? That's for us to decide in... March Madness. What happens, I've taken the top 12 and arranged them in their brackets, with the person I believe is the favorite earning a first-round bye. We'll start with... the Boys.
Gordon: Ok
Chico: First matchup...

ASTRO vs. CHRIS RENE

Chico: Precocious rapper vs. struggling singer
Gordon: Astro in a walk. He's being pimped out.
Chico: Astro seems to be the judges' favorite. Chris Rene's story was something to behold, though. Next...

ASTRO vs. MARCUS CANTY.

Chico: Both want to be entertainers, but who's more entertain-ING? I'm going to go with Marcus here.
Gordon: In a real world, Marcus would win. The problem here is that it isn't real and it's populated with Tweeters. Astro.
Chico: Tiebreaker goes to the "bad reviewer."
Jason: I guess I will go with Astro
Chico: Alright. Next, the girls...

RACHEL CROW vs. DREW...Because apparently "Rynewicz" is hard to write.

Chico: We have a young folk singer vs. a young popper.
Jason: Rachel Crow - Ego is going to bring her down
Gordon: I'm going to go with the folker. Drew
Chico: I'm going to go with... DREW. So it's...

DREW vs. MELANIE AMARO

Chico: I'm going to go with Melanie on this.
Gordon: Melanie because they are setting her up to be the star here.
Chico: Next...the Over 30s.

LeROY BELL vs. STACY FRANCIS

Gordon: (Tosses coin in the air) Stacy
Jason: Leroy.
Chico: LeRoy. Seems to be a better singer than Warbler.
Gordon: I agree, but I don't think he gets too far here.
Chico: And I bet he gets steamrolled in...

LeROY BELL vs. JOSH KRAJCIK

Jason: JOSH
Chico: in a walk
Gordon: That's why I just flipped a coin on the last one. Josh
Chico: And finally...the Groups.

First, INTENSITY vs. LAKODA RAYNE

Jason: Intensity. Kiddies love boys bands
Chico: With girls in them?
Gordon: They do. InTensity
Chico: I think Lakoda Rayne... but it doesn't matter what I think

INTENSITY vs. THE STEREOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....Hogzz.

Jason: Um...no. INTENSITY
Gordon: Intensity
Chico: First upset. So now we have the final four. First...

ASTRO vs. MELANIE AMARO

Jason: ASTRO
Chico: Melanie, because Jason thinks otherwise
Gordon: Agreed. Melanie
Jason: Hey!
Chico: Heh. The other semi...

INTENSITY vs. JOSH KRAJCIK

Jason: Intensity
Gordon: Krajick
Chico: Josh
Gordon: Cause people like the hot guy with the guitar
Chico: Thank you. Finally...

MELANIE AMARO vs. JOSH KRAJCIK

Jason: Josh
Chico: I'm going with Josh.
Gordon: Make it a 3-some. Josh for the win.
Chico: We'll see. Meanwhile, we're going to get to play brain games with Accuracy or Idiocy in a moment, but first...here's Gordon with "One Shining Moment"
Gordon: I would, but the snow has clogged up the audio system.
Chico: Stupid snow.
Jason: Drat.
Gordon: But what about if I give you this instead?

Chico: Now get off my lawn
Jason: LOL
Chico: Welcome back to the snow. Thanks for being a part of our week and allowing us to be a part of yours. Now last week, Gordon and I were doing an all-musical version of Accuracy or Idiocy. This week - the non-musical follow-up.
Jason: I am ready. Let's do it.
Chico: Gordon, please...
Gordon: First one...

Coach or Ozzy will make the FInal 4.

Chico: Idiocy. One's going to lose before he can make a game play and one after.
Jason: Idiocy. Neither one has the gumption or the skills to make it.
Gordon: Accuracy, I think Coach's 4 some gets to the end before Brandon becomes a Hantz and betrays him - or Coach's group betrays Brandon.
Chico: Second...

Roger Craig will make the final 9 in the Jeopardy! TOC.

Jason: Accuracy. He was a great player when he was on.
Gordon: Accuracy. He should be able to get enough
Chico: Accuracy.
Gordon: Next one...

This is the last year of America's Next Top Model

Jason: Accuracy. Tyra needs to move on
Chico: Accuracy. It's wearing thin.
Gordon: Accuracy. It's had a great run, but the changes aren't helping and the numbers are dipping, The women's ratings won't help when it goes under a 2.0
Chico: It's not really doing anything to stand out on its own.
Gordon: Not now, anyways. Next one?

Sushil Kumar won the big prize, garnering the nickname, "The real-life Slumdog Millionaire". We will have a Millionaire on our version of Millionaire.

Jason: Accuracy.
Gordon: Idiocy. No one's going to pull the trigger.
Chico: Idiocy. What Gordon said. Next one?
Gordon: Next one...

The 5 million dollar winner of the X-Factor will not surpass American Idol winner Scotty McCreery

Jason: WAY Accurate. X-Factor is a non-factor in the US
Chico: WAY accurate. Probably not even past the Voice
Gordon: I'll say Accurate, but I think closer than you think
Chico: Maybe so. Finally...

While we're on the X Factor... Paula Abdul is going to have a breakdown of some sort

Jason: Idiocy. That would be so cliché
Gordon: Idiocy, though entertaining to watch
Chico: And that's why it's going to happen. Accuracy. Because it's cliché and entertaining.
Gordon: One more break before the Speed Round

(Brought to you by "Million Dollar Mindwalk"... Go on a long unending walk across a deserted island while pondering the truth of the universe with two pretentious eggheads. If you haven't gouged your eyes out by the end, you may collect the cash money)

Jason: LOL
Gordon: And what eggheads are you referring to?
Jason: Yeah...who?
Chico: John Heard and Liv Ullmann. :-)
Jason: AH!
Gordon: You'd have earned the money. Can we earn a Speed Round?
Chico: Yes we can. Survivor... Does Ozzy's plan WORK?
Jason: Hell no. He goes out Wednesday
Gordon: Stage right
Chico: Race. Who gets lost in the shuffle?
Gordon: The North Carolinians of course
Jason: Maybe Bill and Cathi
Chico: I'm going to go with Bill & Cathi.
Gordon: We haven't talked Jeopardy this week. Who will amaze us in the TOC?
Jason: Watch the College Champion
Chico: Look for Charles Temple to teach the field a thing or two.
Gordon: I'll go with the favorite and Roger and Joon. Do we have any email?
Chico: Why yes, we do. It's from... oh look, G. It's your girlfriend... IDENTITY WITHHELD.
Jason: Oh no.
