Joe: Text us to get help :-D
Jason: No obnoxious British women here.
Chico: Okay, we're back, and court is in session.
Gordon: Order in My Court!
Chico: The semi-honorable judge Gordon Pepper presiding... ALL RISE.... I
SAID RISE, DAMMIT!
Mike: *gets up*
Joe: *stands*
Jason: *gets up*
Gordon: Rise and...not that part rising, Joe. Ewww.
Jason: JOE!
Joe: Wait, I thought my fly was zipped.
Jason: It wasn't. Trust me.
Gordon: I should go after you for public lewdness, boy.
Joe: But I'm wearing briefs....NEW briefs
Gordon: Too. Much. Information.
Mike: THANK YOU FOR THAT INFO, JOE
Chico: It's time for We the Jury. Gordon presents cases. We judge... Gordon
passes sentence. JUSTICE! And we all look at Joe funny.. again.
Mike: Since we're in court, is it fair to say Joe's wearing legal briefs?
Jason: Yes. (rimshot)
Mike: If you squint, Judge Pepper looks a lot like Judge Judy.
Gordon: Anyways, before this turns into juvenile court, first case...
Accused - American Idol Producers
Charge - Manipulation
Chico: Evidence?
Gordon: According to Queen, the Producers edited the footage out of context
to make it seem like Ace got into a squabble with them. This could have led
Ace into the Bottom three.
Jason: Not Guilty. His PERFORMANCE got him into the Bottom Three.
Chico: ... Straight out of the mouths of Blocks. Not guilty.
Jason: Not a petty squabble between a newcomer and one of the world's
greatest rock band.
Chico: For all the wrong reasons.
Jason: And Besides...isn't Queen trying to live off the legacy of Freddie
Mercury by using Paul Rodgers?
Mike: I have no say in the matter. You know what I think about Idol.
Joe: As you noted earlier I'm hung like manhole cover.
Chico: Joe, the case.. Oh. You're abstaining as well. My bad. Two abstain,
two not guilty.
Joe: It's a play on words
Chico: I got it after a few seconds.
Gordon: Not guilty here. The producers are free to go. What about...
Accused - American Inventor Producers
Charge - Deception
Chico: Evidence?
Gordon: According to printed reports, the contract that the winner has to
sign has language that includes that American Inventor now holds all right
and a percentage of the profit.
Chico: Which means that Cowell gets pay... And is anyone the wiser of this?
Mike: Simon Cowell getting rich off of someone else's talent? Go figure!
Guilty.
Jason: Does that mean all creative control goes to American Inventor, Inc?
Gordon: Correct
Jason: Guilty.
Joe: Not guilty on the grounds of semantics. If you didn't see something
like this coming, then that's your own fault.
Chico: No one made any claims to the contrary, so I'm going to say not
guilty as well...
Joe: The real AI owns your soul, so why shouldn't this AI, too?
Mike: Clever!
Gordon: You would expect to give up a percentage. You would not expect to
give up ALL rights to it. Guilty!! The Verdict is that the Producers are
sentenced to one year of using the Bladder Buddy...on a full time basis!
Jason: Ewwwwww
Gordon: JUSTICE! Next up...
ACCUSED - The Millionaire Contestants
Charge - Cheating on their Millionaire Entrance Exams
Jason: Uh Oh.
Joe: Oh. ok
Chico: oh..
Jason: I see.
Chico: GUILTY... Whatever the evidence is.. I passed mine. And I used this..
*points at brain*
Gordon: Ok. So they have been better on the show this week. We STILL haven't
seen a $500,000 question. If they used their heads, we would have at least
seen $500,000, no?
Jason: Guilty. I passed the phone test and used my head...6 YEARS AGO
Joe: I say not guilty, as good TV>smarts in this new game show world. I
accuse the contestants of wasting resources
Mike: I say not guilty because Millionaire's not looking for smarts, but
rather good stories.
Joe: Are there exams anymore?
Chico: There are exams. But you know, they look at the entire questionnaire,
like "Who can we market"?
Joe: I still say it's because TVQ>IQ
Gordon: The punishment - they all have to be extras on Playmania!
Chico: Are you serious?
Joe: OBJECTION!: Cruel and unusual!: Even their intelligence is above
Playmania's
Jason: I like it myself :-)
Gordon: Actually, that's not painful enough. I know...they have to be the
NEW MODELS on Playmania!
Jason: NOOOOOOOOOOOO
Joe: They have Models?
Gordon: Hosts, models, Eye Candy, Whatever
Joe: That's a little better
Gordon: Next!
Accused - Endemol and Matt Kunitz
Charge - Cloning
Joe: Evidence?
Gordon: Kunitz (fresh off of Fear Factor) and Endemol are now coming up with
Operation Triunfo, a show that remarkably looks like American Idol...
ABC now has their music show. Is it going to be original or a clone?
Chico: Only with behind the scenes bits a la Rock Star. It's based on Fame
Academy, et al.
Jason: I say Guilty.
Joe: Guilty, but there's a bigger crime and that's Madison Avenue thinking
that we like being force-fed the same damn thing over and over again
Jason: Very good Joe.
Chico: Guil... ty...
Mike: Guilty and I like Joe's reasoning.
Chico: Bob Dole likes your style... Bob Dole thinks you're onto something...
Bob Dole... Bob Dole...
Gordon: Guilty it is!
Chico: Bob.... Dole.
Joe: But Can They Sing? was amusing because it was practicallya spoof
Jason: Joe---what are you thinkin?
Chico: Say the same thing about Superstar USA and I'll bean you one.
Joe: I said amusing. Not good
Gordon: The Punishment...Matt Kunitz will be the NEW JUDGE for Season 2 of
But...Can...They...Sing!
Jason: Can he will be licked by Ant every show?
Gordon: Yes...And he has to put on the outfit that Bai Ling was wearing
while being licked by Ant on every show.
Chico: OBJECTION!
Joe: And there's our Bai Ling reference for the week
Chico: This is a family show :-)
Gordon: Bai Ling isn't family? Next one...
Accused - The Cast of Big Brother 6
Charge - Media Ho-ing without a proper license
Chico: Charge?
Joe: Evidence?
Gordon: We already spent one Summer with these people who have the combined
strategic savvy of a peach. Do we really need - or want - to spend another
Summer with them?
Jason: GUILTY...
Mike: That's good enough for me. Guilty.
Joe: No, but if it worked for Survivor.....:-\
Chico: That's just it. It didn't work for Survivor. At least from a game
point of view.
Joe: I don't want Big Brother on my television ever ever ever
Chico: Guilty. Guilty guilty guilty.
Joe: Guilty only because I didn't even like Season 1
Gordon: Guilty! Justice!
Jason: For their sentence, can they spend the entire summer with Omarosa and
Janice Dickinson of the Surreal Life?
Gordon: If you add the mime from Season 4 of Big Brother, I'll allow it,
Jay.
Jason: Done.
Gordon: Finally...
Accused - India
Jason: The whole country?
Gordon: The whole country
Joe: This oughta be good
Jason: Damn...the charge?
Charge - A temporary lapse of sanity and good taste
Joe: That's the US in a nutshell :-P
Gordon: Yes, but the U.S.'s insanity is 24/7. India, with Temptation, DOND,
and other quality game shows is usually a bastion of fun...until they
decided to put on their version of...The ChairThe show is called Heartbeatz,
and you can answer as many questions as you want - but you lose the money if
your heart beat level surpasses a certain mark. Wha?
Jason: GUILTY! What were they thinking?
Joe: Maybe they want to be as wacky and torturous as Japan...But Guilty
Mike: I say not guilty. For every couple of successes, there will be a bad
decision. The Chair wasn't a bad show.
Joe: Wasn't good, either
Chico: I agree with Mike.. Not guilty.
Gordon: So it's up to me, eh?
Chico: Yeah
Joe: Man, I'm gonna lose another coin flip ><
Gordon: I think that India, with all of the things going on in the Middle
East, may be stressed out. I'll table this case for a later time. Meanwhile,
we need to send DOND contestant Sheetal Shetty to India as a goodwill
messenger and maybe send with her a media ho or two.
Chico: I nominate Omarosa and Paula Abdul.
Joe: I nominate Bai Ling
Gordon: As a sign of good will or just to get them out of this country?
Jason: Both
Joe: After all, India does have a nuclear program, right? ;-)
Gordon: Done. Justice!
Mike: Excellent job, Howie Mandel.
Gordon: Uhhh...ummm....we'll send Howie over there too, since India is
looking for a new DOND host.
Jason: True.
Gordon: Maybe Howie will ease their stress.
Joe: I thought that's what this case was going to be about. Ha ha. Case.
Gordon: On that note, we are in recess. Chico will now change the court room
into an art gallery as we play a new game
Joe: No more sequestering?
Chico: Get your thinking caps on as we play with pictures... After the
break.
