Casey posted a G-R report from Price's new season, and there's a few syndie Deal reports over on Hollywood Junket. (NOTE: there are some spoilers on the site as well)

Any other reports of what's going on for the upcoming season, from anyone who's attended a taping? Would love to hear about Trivial Pursuit, or even Million Dollar Wheel.

And has Fremantle officially shot the broken-legged horse that is "Temptation"?

Dunno, but I was looking at the numbers for Temptation in Hartford just today, and noticed something stunning.

At 2:30pm, up against 2 soap operas and Martha Stewart :

Temptation comes in second place with a 1.5 rating.

This HAS to be an abnormality, no?

It is surprising, to say the least.  Perhaps a lot of people there are just glad to have $ale back in some form (I had the same attitude when Whammy! premiered, was glad to have PYL back in some form).

But Whammy at least TRIED to make it look like the game it was a revival of.

Temptation failed to do that. They added too much in and it took away from it.

We were working on a promo page at work that has wallpapers and icons on it for our users. (Apparently they like that stuff.) One day, one of my officemates looks at the banner on the page, and asks "Does that say what I think it says?"

On the banner, in inch-high letters: "Fun Free Downloads."

Could that be due to time-shifting?  Sometimes women will tape or TIVO the soaps to watch later (and  pause the action if interrupted by a phone call).  Temptation is good for watching in real-time but for archiving.....?  My grandmother used to tape her soaps to watch overnight and watched the USA game show block during the day.  Always enjoyed visiting grandma.

Personally, I got a chuckle out of the commercials for Deal.  Well crafted and slightly creative.

Not that I know of. But since your a fellow Michigander, I can tell you that Deal will air on WSMH-Fox 66. I have seen the commercials a few times during Everybody Loves Raymond.
