Scrabble Junior?
When you're at the grocery game and you hear the beep, think of all the fun you could have at "Crazy Rachel's Checkout Counter!"

I can just see the ad now: Contestants wanted for Candy Land: The Game. Diabetics need not apply.

Yes, this is true.

The only show he should be on should have this guy as the host.

/Idea!--a revival of Musical Chairs.  "Why don't you take a seat over there?"

Here's a snippet from an article at TVEye::

Quote
Also on Thursday, word came that Scrabble will be one of several games that will be the basis of new programming on Discovery channel and its various networks. A show based on "Scrabble" would appear alongside such other Hasbro shows turned shows as Trivial Pursuit, Cranium, My Little Pony, The Game of Life and Transformers.

How do you turn those games into TV shows?
