I guess we've exhausted the comics. Now we're on to cherry-picking 80s Primetime Soap actors.

Scuzzlebutt's leg is hosting a game show.  I think I've seen it all.

All that's missing is Larry Hagman as announcer...introduce another home shopping element with a "Who Shot J.R." contest. It practically writes itself! :-P

Match Game in 1996.  Dolly Parton was considered for the Feud.

Come to think of it, how long do you suppose it'll be until there's a SPECIAL! celebrity week?
It could pit the Ewing family against the Barnes family in a battle of bingo wits.

Bingo America premiered on Monday March 31.  I thought it was a decent show, better than ABCs Bingo Night.  Patrick Duffy is a better host than the English chap on the ABC show, there's a Q&A portion, so it's not just calling letters and numbers.  There's an audience and the set is not dark and moody, like most post 2000 game shows.  I think this show might have possibilities.

If I've told the suits at GSN once, I've told them a thousand times: when you buy a set piece from ABC's Bingo Night, you don't put it in the dryer after you wash it.  It shrinks!

Seriously, BA is harmless, has playalong, and has more to it than watching numbers pulled out of a giant hopper.  Really, nothing much to complain about.  Nothing I'll watch with any regularity, either.
