Sounds good on paper but I'm reserving judgement until I see some video. Fremantle is the company that gave us Louie Anderson and Richard Karn. Need I say more?

Why are the emcee candidates such a hush-hush secret? Are you guys under non-disclosure agreements?

This sounds pretty awesome, esp. if it's a Pyramid/Deal hour.

My question: is GL techincally designated to the 10a or the 3p slot, on paper? I know some mention it airing at 10 in their area, but Norfolk airs at 3. A 10:00 hour of game(s), leading into TPiR seems more logical, although Curt's idea about 3p working for students is a good one as well.

/And it would give me something to watch at work!

I think officially it's 3PM, 10AM is an alternative.  Then there's some stations where it airs at *9AM* (WSBT for one.)

EDIT:  Move one post up.

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!"

You really wouldn't have to add anything to TPIR except commercials.

Umm no, I'm not interested in seeing 15 more commercials for power chairs and Diabeetus aids.

I don't know what Alex was told, but with what I was told, Alex is right on when he says the list of candidates has some fan favorites.  I am not under a non disclosure agreement, but I am not saying too much as to not betray trust.

Does that mean we'll get to see the reincarnation of Temptayshun Dollarz???

This is the exact thing I'm under.  I'm friends with the person who told me.  This person asked me just to say that CBS is looking at LMAD for daytime and to not mention the hosts.  The minute I get the OK I'll be blabbing about it.  I'd just rather not lose communication with this person over this specific thing I was asked not to mention.  Hopefully you understand.

So essentially, yes. You're under a non-disclosure agreement, legal or otherwise.

Nonononono, I haven't talked or associated to him in an extremely long time (probably since my Combination Lock debacle with him) nor do I have any desire to whatsoever.  He can enjoy working on Bunco.

I hear he's developing a game show pilot based on Cat's Cradle.

So if I'm following the clues correctly, it's going to be Ty Treadway.  What does this portend for a third season of "Crosswords"?
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.
