Another Child's Play posting is reporting that Game Show Netw....I mean NBC is picking up Child's Play.  For some reason, I just can't see this getting the audience that 1vs100 or DoND gets.  Then again, as I always say, I never thought a bank offer would be a pony.

I shudder to think what they'll do for their Christmas special?

Wow...never though this would happen.  That would put NBC with three games...incredible in this day and age.

Too bad ABC let "Millionaire" slip though...they could probably use it right now.

And who wants to make a bet "Concentration" makes a nighttime comeback within the next 3 years on NBC?

Well, again this is from Craigslist so kinda take some caution before jumping to absolute conclusions, but it was stated that Reveille and NBC are making Identity.

Sounds a little like what CBS did with "Kids Say the Darndest Things" a few years back, just in game show form.

If they turn it into a Big Money Extravaganza, I hope it doesn't.

They'll fix that...

Contestant:  I'll start the game with number 13 please.

(reveal sound effect)
(audience oooohs and ahhhs)
(audience shot)

Host: A new pony!  Where's the match?

I've posted this for the fine folks at Buzzer....and i'm repeating it here:

You can’t trust Craigslist to be right when a show casting lists a network affiliation. UNLESS you have NBC saying ‘We’ve Bought Childs Play’, don’t trust an overzealous contestant coordinator/booker who’s posting a free ad.

Bottom line : Take Craigslist stuff with a grain of salt.

Give NBC credit.  DoND is still pulling in great numbers (it may still be NBC's top show), but the first announcement we hear is less DoND instead of more.  Whatever our opinions of the show, NBC seems to have learned the "golden goose" lesson from ABC's botching of Millionaire.

Not entirely correct.



The reason "Millionaire" was cancelled was not because of the number of weekly airings, but more because of the fact that after the terror attacks, they hardly ever used civilian contestants

Pair that bit of NBC news rumor with the Deal or No Deal daytime version rumor, and it might just become...

The daytime "Child's Play/Deal or No Deal Rumor Hour" at 9am Eastern, 8 Central and Mountain.

Of course it's just speculation, but it would be logical reasoning!

You are wrong. Completely. ABC Millionaire being canceled did not have a lick to do with terror attacks, which in turn, did not lead them to stop using civilian contestants.

Your lack of knowledge, and absolute annoyance here, BooBoo, amazes me. You would be better off just lurking, and not posting.

To speak ex-rectum he would have to remove the blockage created by his head.

Seconded, on both counts.

I suggest finding the turd who did it and playing "Who Wants to Get Torn to Shreds by a Weakest Link Contestant?"

[itiparanoid13]

I just got done talking to NBC.  They told me that Identity is slated for them as of now.  However, we saw Show Me the Money jump around, so who knows.  In it, a contestant has to guess the identity of a panel of people for up to $500,000.  That's a bit much for a panel show, isn't it?
