GSN Picks Up Richard Karn's version of Family Feud [Jan. 28th, 2007|03:53 pm]
[Tags|, , ]
[Current Mood | confused]

GSN apparently has no interest in DOUBLING THEIR RATINGS, as:

It's been reported that GSN's picked up Richard Karn's version of Family Feud. I suppose they could have done worse (Card Sharks 2001, a 47,000th poker show, reruns of Big Brother, etc.), but they could have done better than this. Personally I wouldn't have minded if they'd picked O'Hurley's version of the show and did an airing arrangment similar to what they did for Bergeron HS some years ago.

Admittedly, I'd lost most of my interest in NASCAR a couple of years ago for various reasons, but this news still struck me kind of hard, as I was always a fan of his

RIP Benny.

Disc 83:

3)Password Plus (Allen Ludden) (1979)

----
This may benefit no one but me, but it benefits me. And with Disc 83 having the last conversions of Old Tape 36, it means I've now gone over every tape at least once in the last 3 years for cataloging purposes. Which should at least make the rest of this go a TINY bit faster, since all I have to do is watch for stuff I missed, and otherwise re-copy the listing (changing the number).

And Notre Dame blows it [Jan. 4th, 2007|10:02 am]
[Tags|]
[Current Mood | disappointed]

Is there any other squad less effective in the postseason in college football? And this is coming from someone who loves the Fighting Irish. But this playoff choking streak is getting ridiculous. And I honestly wonder if last night might not cost Brady Quinn the #1 draft pick, which prior to last night he seemed to be on the fast track to getting. And obviously ESPN's web editors had their "clever" little "puns" worked out in advance, calling the loss a "sugar low" for Notre Dame, and - and this is the best one - referring to reports for each team's mood post-game as Sweet (LSU) & Low (ND) - referring to one of the leading artificial sweeteners out there.

And I even missed Knights of Prosperity and In Case of Emergency to watch this flippin game in spite of the site's PR breakfast bonanza over the shows, particularly the former, all week. So far I'm 2-2 in the Bowls, with only the national title game left. The Cards didn't let me down, and I may have been the only person in the world gutsy enough to think Boise State WOULD win. Then both Michigan and especially the Fighting Irish blew it. Wonderful.

As for the title game - or joke thereof - I (and I can't believe I'm saying this) would rather see Ohio State win. And given my dislike of Ohio State, that should indicate how much more I dislike Florida.

There's no way I'm paying for a service, in advance, if I'm not going to use it long-term. If I decide I like this, I may ante up later. That, in addition to other conveiniences, would allow me to make this thing look a LOT prettier.

EDIT: I actually *LIKE* this design. My only gripe is the ads. They'll go away, but only if I stay, at which point I'd pony up for paid. If you want the ads to go away in the meantime, I might suggest Firefox with accompanying Adblock extension.

Well, thought I'd give this a shot. I'll try this out for a couple weeks, and go from there. My head's such a tangled mess of garbage I'm not so sure the EPA wants the public exposed to levels of toxins this high, but oh well.
