Jason:  LOL
Gordon: Now how Much would you pay?
Chico:  $30.
Gordon: ooooh
Chico:  Interestingly enough, I got a $30 gift card from work.. and I don't know what I'm going to use it for. I'm probably going to pay it forward and get my brother a printer.
Jason:  Sounds good.
Chico:  Welcome back.
Jason:  I used a $20 gift card to get the new Hicks and Daughtry albums.
Chico:  Any good?
Jason:  Haven't had a chance to listen.
Chico:  Well you can listen as we do Snaps. That's right, Snaps as in pictures. Snaps as in captions. Snaps as in FAST.
Jason:  I cant wait for this one :)
Chico:  Are you ready?
Gordon: Yah
Jason:  Yes.
Chico:  First one...Take at look at your monitors..



Chico:  Jason?
Jason:  Howie Mandel consoles another NBC executive.
Gordon: Damn. Took my line
Jason:  Great minds thinks alike.
Chico:  Gordon?
Gordon: Howie has decided that the banker doesn't want to make a monkey out of him.
Jason:  Ouch.
Gordon: When the good lines have been taken, always resort to the bad pun.
Chico:  "Ladies and gentlemen... the hosts of Bizarro WLTI."
Jason:  LOL
Gordon: You calling me a monkey?
Chico:  No, I'm calling you bald. I'm the cute little monkey... or so I've been told =p
Jason:  I am staying far out of this.
Gordon: I didn't realize you were that hairy
Chico:  I am... today :)
Gordon: Too. Much. Information.
Jason:  Next one please! :)
Chico:  Okay, next up...Monitors, please..



Gordon: Since you guys can't figure out any of the bonus puzzles by yourself, I'm GIVING you a clue for Wool Gloves.
Chico:  "Hey Vanna! Don't you remember me? I added you to my Myspace!!"
Jason:  This man is waving all the bonus round prizes away.
Chico:  Okay, next one. Monitors, please. A special from Big Brother Croatia...



Jason:  Alcohol + Dancing = Croatia's funniest home videos.
Gordon: I'm here for the Croatia's Next Top Model Audition. Where's Tyra?
Chico:  "This may look like Big Brother, but it's actually Croatia's version of Show Me the Money. Much like the show, Tanja fell... hard."
Jason:  Ouch.
Gordon: Tanja Steponya?
Chico:  wah wah wah waaaaaaah
Jason:  LOL
Chico:  Thank you, we'll be here all week. Next. Monitors, please. From Australia with love...



Gordon: And here on 1 Vs. 100, we have 2 finalists for the Monica Lewinsky Oval Office Impersonation Competiton. Popsicle Twins, anyone?
Jason:   These women are reacting to seeing the host of Temptation...in the nude!
Chico:  "These two Feuders react to some more of Bert Newton's choice anecdotes involving a rubber chicken." For the record, Bert Newton never had a rubber chicken, BUT he did see these two as
they played Fast Money for $100,000.
Jason:  wow.
Chico:  The chick on the left? She got all five #1s.
Jason:  Awesome!
Chico:  Cool stuff.
Gordon: Next one?
Chico:  Okay, next one..



Gordon: Tim Gunn proudly notes that almost all of the males on project runway have no problems feeling breasts, since its one anatomy part almost none of them are interested in.
Chico:  What is Tim Gunn laughing at? a) Dude going to first base with dummy, b) Dude's shirt, or c) Heidi's singing?
Jason:  The Asian woman is trying to find Hawaiian's Shirt Dude's Dignity...she is still looking.
Gordon: The dude, by the way, is Daniel, the very first person eliminated on the very first Project Runway
Jason:  I see.
Chico:  Right. A DVD moment?
Jason:  Which is on sale BTW--
Chico:  Okay, final snap...with a very special guest...



Jason:  Why is that blanked out?
Chico:  Ryan gave me the pic and said that I could use this on condition that "Hans'" face is blacked out, because "it might get him in trouble".
Jason:  Got it.
Chico:  Ryan, of course, being the guy in the TPIR shirt.
Jason:  Right.
Gordon: Ryan Vickers tries to get to the bottom of who will  be the new host of The Price is Right as he interviews people who refuse to be identified due to their tacky fashion sense. And If I was wearing that, I would not want to be identified in public, either.
Jason:  Ryan Vickers gets his audition as host ....with a live action Hans to boot!
Chico:  "After 35 years of falling off of cliffs, Hans is now relocated to Canada, where he assumes the identity of Rick Moranis."
Gordon: eh?
Chico:  This Snap is brought to you by Labatt Blue :) No it isn't. So... Big Finish, anyone?
Jason:  Yup I am there.
Chico:  We hope you're there... after the break.

(Brought to you by Remote Control Pills. The perfect cure for MyGames Fever)

Jason:  That bad huh?
Gordon: Awful. No original games. No new idea. Not even entertaining. F. F. F. F. F.
Chico:  And they want to put it on primetime?
Gordon: This is how desperate MyNetwork is. I order both of you to watch an episode this week.
Chico:  See, I can't.
Jason:  I will tape it.
Chico:  Because I'm not in one of the 10 markets.
Gordon: Lets put it this way. Here is one of their unscramble puzzles this week... Smisiy Toillet
Jason:  Missy Elliott
Gordon: Yes...but what's the problem here?
Chico:  The extra I.
Gordon: Yep
Chico:  I respect Playmania that much more now. And I pine for Midnight Money Madness again. If only there was a way to meld the two.
Gordon: Why? They can't even get correct puzzles on the board, This is a mess in every sense of the word. They have money like Midnight Money Madness, but that's it. This is awful.
Chico:  Solve this scramble... IGB SIFHNI
Gordon: If its a MyFever game, the answer is probably Gib Shinif.
Jason:  BIG FINISH! What do I win?
Chico:  SWEET NOTHING!
Jason:  YES!
Chico:  CREDIBILITY!
Jason:  Let's do it.
Gordon: Survivor...Yul wins...right?
Jason:  He is the favorite.
Chico:  I can't think of one way that Yul DOESN'T win.
Jason:  He has the Idol and is one of the prime positions. Ozzy is 2nd.
Chico:  Now who joins them?
Gordon: I'll go with Becky and assume the triumvirate makes it through. Identity...it's a hit...right?
Jason:  Big time. Penn Jillette will be a busy man in 2007.
Chico:  I think NBC'll look to him to prop up a slot midseason.
Gordon: Are we going to see a GOOD interactive call in and win game before 2010?
Chico:  Playmania... well, it's getting there.
Jason:  Nope.
Chico:  It's still the best we can come up with.
Jason:  Not when you are going to deal with the Lowest common denominator and vapid hosts and questions.
Chico:  Speaking of vapid, something that rarely is... It's viewer mail time.
Gordon: Yay!
Jason:  We love mail!
Chico:  First up, from Seth Taylor. Thanks, Seth!
Jason:  Hello Seth.

Chico:  Good question, Seth. I defer to the panel.
Jason:  Unfortunately, the answer is no.
Chico:  Care to expound on that?
Jason:  The rule for most game shows is this shows HAVE to air for the people to get money. Remember the Let's Make A Deal fiasco of a few years back. They showed only half of the 6 episode order.
Chico:  Right
Jason:  The three episodes that never aired, the people never got their prizes.
Chico:  And people got angry?
Jason:  Not sure.
Chico:  But the rule is usually no.
Jason:  Usually.
Chico:  Alright. There you go, Seth. Thanks!
Gordon: Well then let me ask this question. Here's Bob on Show Me The Money. He's 2 questions away from the payout. His second half of the show is not going to get aired. Does he get paid?
Jason:  Hmmm...
Gordon: Hmmm?
Jason:  I cant give a definitive answer, but the answer is...if the ep doesn't air, you don't get paid.
Jason:  Also, if you remember, when episodes have to be rescheduled say in TPIR...they don't get their prizes until 90 days after air date.
Chico:  Okay. Next mail is from Stat Boy. Here's Jason Wuthrich.

Gordon: Not anymore, they're not.

Chico:  Thanks, J... First of all... I will do the Charlie O'Donnell when Sony pays me to.
Gordon: Keep in mind that Dancing With the Stars has already challenged Idol last season during a 3 week stint on Thursdays and it held its own.
Chico:  Of course that was in the early rounds, when they had guys and girls on separate nights and voting requirements.
Jason:  I think DWTS will have no problem against Idol. I think there is room for both.
Chico:  So there you go. a) DWTS and Idol can play nice. b) I'm not doing the Charlie O after meeting Charlie O because I know I can't...
Gordon: I agree with it. It will be interesteing to see what they do with it. There is nothing on ABC's schedule at 8pm that can't be moved
Chico:  Yeah, let another night have all the fun.
Gordon: Thursday/Friday probably is the best bet
Chico:  But if ABC's feeling REALLY REALLY BALLSY....I have a Ken Hidaka-mail.
Gordon: Lets hear the Ken Hidaka-mail

Chico:  Okay, Ken... a) No game on TPIR is cursed.  b) A game is seldom unbeatable if you go in with a plan of attack.
Gordon: Logic goes a long long way. the problem isn't bad research - just bad guessing.
Chico:  Dice Game... if you can help it, don't roll a 3, but remember, you can only rig dice rolls so much. I learned that from many a game of Trivial Pursuit.
Gordon: its more than just 'Don't roll a 3'. You know the second number is going to be high. You also know that there sill be a 1 or a 2 and a 5 or a 6 somewhere in the price. Don't go low all of the rolls and don't guess higher all of the rolls, and usually that last number is a 5. Proper knowledge gets you more prepared than luck. Going to Lucky 7. For the last number, always Say 5.
Chico:  If the First number is 2, go low on the second number. First number is 1, go high on the second number.
Gordon: Check out my State of Play for more TPIR game hints.
Chico:  Thanks, Ken. Well, that's it for this week. You're going to want to check out next week's  show when we go from January to December in the quickest year-end special you'll ever see.
Gordon: As quick as we usually get....bring some egg nog.
Chico:  It's the We Love to Interrupt 2006 Rewind. And you love it :). Thanks to Jason Block for hanging out again, And thanks to you for watching! Remember, e-mail us with your stuff at wlti@gameshownewsnet.com
Gordon: Yep. Until Next Week...Game Overrrr
Chico:  For everyone at GSNN, enjoy the holiday and spread the egg nog :)
