Chico: Who wants to abuse some lists?
Don: Me!
Jason B.: Ok.
Chico: It's basically the Winner's Circle... on crack. For example...
Joe: This falls under the "Oh crap, I'm going to suck" category games

Because I'm gay...
Because I'm fat...
Because Paula's so played out...

Joe: Why you're not the Next American Idol
Chico: I'll give it to you... It was "Why you THINK you're not the next American Idol"
Joe: Yay, I can pass tests
Chico: K. So a little explanation with that last one. Because if you watch these shows, you'll see that they give every excuse under the sun for sucking out... except for the one that counts: "I can't sing."
Joe: Right right
Don: No kidding...
Chico: My favorite is "Because I don't fit into their little mold."
Joe: Another good element would be "because my head's too far up my ass to realize that I can't sing for crap"
Chico: Don, does that happen with Canadian Idol as well?
Don: Yeah, that happens.
Joe: It almost has to, doesn't it?
Don: Though as far as I can tell, we don't get the kind of outbursts that American Idol has seen...And by that, I mean we don't get those at the just plain ol' crybaby level.
Chico: Imagine you just had your pride ripped to shreds on national television.
Joe: Well, there's more people, so there's a higher frequency. Plus, there's the American attitude of "I rock and you suck. End of story"
Don: Good point.
Jason B.: The hoochie mama last Tuesday was classic
Chico: Only in Greensboro, folks.
Joe: I didn't know the Dirty Souf went that far up
Chico: Then you don't know the Dirty Souf.
Joe: You're right, because I live in Pennsylvania, a state that's neither Dirty nor Souf. Since we're haven't it mentioned yet, aren't we supposed to mention Bai Ling anywhere? :P
Chico: You know I did see Bai Ling at Sundance doing... well, nothing.
Jason B.: She was dancing in the form of Master P.
Joe: I'd rather watch the mind-numbing experience that is Evangelion than watch or listen to Bai Ling
Chico: DAMN.
Don: So you didn't see But Can They Sing, then?
Joe: Hells no
Don: Lucky you.
Joe: It had Superstar USA written all over it
Chico: Now you're just benig kind
Gordon: Next List...

The cheesy music
The cheesy host
The raising ratings
The Cheesy Women

Joe: Why we have more DoND
Gordon: Nooo (BUZZ). Out of the question., We continue on

The Cheesy Doctor

Don: Things associated with the Bachelor: Paris?
Gordon: Very good
Don: It's all cheesy, isn't it?
Gordon: How is it that this show is actually getting ratings?
Chico: You're going to berate me all day about those ratings, aren't you? =p
Gordon: Nothing but a mound of swiss
Joe: It combined with itself back-to-back
Don: That had to have been a fluke. F-l-u-k-e.
Joe: Asexual reproduction is never a fluke and is probably symbolic, too
Jason H.: I think this year, we should give away one of the DonD models. ;-D
Jason B.: I vote for Leyla.
Gordon: Kimmy. Has to be Kimmy.
Chico: Bonnie-Jill! Bonnie-Jill! =p
Joe: Catgirl!
Chico: Sorry. Anyway, new list...

According to Jim...
Survivor...
How I Met Your Mother...
American Idol...
NCIS...

Jason H.: BUZZ
Chico: Stimpy?
Jason H.: Shows that premiered in 2oo2?
Chico: Nope. I'll continue...

Every episode of Wife Swap for the rest of the season...

Jason B.: Things on at 8PM
Chico: *nods*
Jason H.: Things on at 8PM on MONDAY nights? (ie; DonD's competition?)
Chico: Moreover, things that Deal or No Deal will have to contend with when it returns. It returns for one whole week, then goes to Mondays. Hence, Survivor.
Gordon: Gotcha
Jason H.: Man.....
Joe: Ooooooooh
Jason H.: Monday is my swing dancing night, too. =/
Jason B.: wow
Gordon: Good one, Jason
Chico: Better get some tapes then, swinger.
Jason H.: I record 100MD at that time. :-p
Chico: DAMN! I forgot about that! Monday's gonna be hard...
Jason H.: I hate to say it, but DonD may have lost a viewer in me.
Joe: Well, once a week is better than three a week ad infinitum. Week-long cliffhangers don't do it for ya?
Jason H.: Not at all.
Gordon: I think Monday works, actually, because you do have a gaming crowd there. Joe Millionaire and My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance (yuk) showed us that.
Chico: And Fear Factor in its prime...And Weakest Link... also in its prime....Agreed. Next list?
Gordon: Next List...

Don: People who auditioned for American Idol?
Gordon: THAT'S what I was looking for

Jason B.: wow.
Gordon: After 2 weeks, are the personalities on this show better, worse, or comparable to previous seasons?
Jason H.: o_0
Chico: Uh... worse
Jason H.: As a total, worse
Joe: Indifferent, seeing as I normally don't watch the first half of the show :p
Chico: I know these are attention starved individuals with no redeeming qualities in life, but... damn.
Joe: and by show I mean entire series
Jason H.: But I already have a small list of people that I see going far in the competition.
Don: I don't know about better or worse, but I'd say they've gotten weirder.
Gordon: I think we're in for a treat this year. I like many of these people. I like Ann Nesby a lot
Jason H.: That girl who can sing Billie Holiday, she was VERY impressive for a 17 year-old

Jason H.: ohhhh
Don: Ah.
Gordon: Ah
Jason H.: I thought I had a good guess, too.

Jason H.: Danke.
Don: Yeah, kick some butt there, JD!
Joe: At least he can't do any worse than Bai Ling
Joe: We're pimping that for all it's worth, aren't we?
Gordon: Yes we are. We're rather good at it, too.
Jason H.: lol
Gordon: And that ends both list - and people abuse. We'll be back with the
Big Finish after this...

(Brought to you by Project Bunway. The Top 16 pastry chefs compete to make the best edible clothing. Cinnamon Bun Lingerie, anyone?)

Jason H.: !!!!!
Chico: .... My god that's tasty
Jason H.: *shakes head*
Joe: Now that's a show I can really sink my teeth into
Jason H.: Mmmmmm
Chico: Quick, we're running out of time! Big Finish!
Jason B.: Nice Cinnabuns
Gordon: I want to taste your buns - tee hee hee
Chico: BIG FINISH TIME! Who's going on Beauty & The Geek?
Gordon: Anyone but Chris
Jason H.: I remember a comment someone made, and I will echo the sentiment....geek girls are hot. ;-D It's like that really hot secretary that is shy, but everyone at work wants to nail her. :p
Jason B.: wow
Chico: Going global: the Indian version of Millionaire has been cancelled due to illness on the host's part. Thoughts?
Jason B.: Too bad.
Joe: That sucks
Jason H.: Get well.
Don: Darn. And yeah, hope the host gets well.
Chico: That's right.
Gordon: Interesting - I think that shows have loyalties to the hosts which is great. I don't think you see that echoed here - and you won't see it with The Price is Right, for example.
Joe: really?
Gordon: Really. I think that when Bob retires, the show will continue
Jason H.: agree'd
Chico: I think so, too..
Joe: I don't think it will last for too long. I'd give it 2 years tops.
Jason H.: Perhaps, but it WILL live on
Gordon: If they get the right person in there, it will last for a very long time. I think the show has transcended the host.
Chico: But then again, we're talking extenuating circumstances.. With KBC, you saw the sudden illness and surgery and recovery. Bob still has time to find a scion.
Gordon: How many people thought that there could be no one else except Regis to host Millionaire?
Chico: Or Bill Cullen, or Art Fleming. We can go on and on here.
Gordon: If they get the right person, then TPIR lives on. Whether you think that Todd or anyone we've heard about is that right person - well, then that's a different issue.
Chico: Yeah
Jason H.: We could go for HOURS on that topic
Jason B.: No kidding.
Jason H.: But the show will live on.
Jason B.: Agreed.
Chico: And bless it for doing so. With that, time for mail!
Joe: WHOO!
Jason H.: YES!!!!! MAIL!!! No tears today. =)
Gordon: We have this one from Jason Wuthrich. Thanks, Jason!

Don: I bet he would.
Jason B.: Oh sure.
Chico: Yeah.
Jason B.: He would.
Joe: K
Chico: He'd do it.
Gordon: No question about it
Jason H.: 100% absolutely
Chico: Loyalty to AJJ knows no bounds...I have the same sort of venerance with Keira Knightley.
Jason B.: My dad with Kate Beckinsale now.
Jason H.: If I know Joey Numbers like I know Joey Numbers, he will tape it. Kate Beckinsale is gorgeous
Gordon: He'll probably recap it. That's all I have
Chico: That's all I have. And if you want to send us some love, just hit up your outlooks... E-mail address... WLTI@gameshownewsnet.com
Gordon: Then that's it. Thanks again for reading. Thanks again to Ryan, Mike, Don, Jason (2) and Joe.
Joe: No probalo.
Jason B.: Thanks again.
Chico: For everyone at Game Show Newsnet, I'm Chico Alexander... and I do parties.
Gordon: And until next time, Game Over and spread the haaaaatttt...love.
Jason H.: I'm Jason Hernandez, and I can teach YOU *points to the audience* how to Charleston in just 90 minutes!
Chico: I bet you can.. :)
Jason H.: Now.....we dance!
Chico: *dances*
Jason H.: *dances to swing*

Joe: I'm a wallflower
