Remember that "Extreme Musical Chairs" pilot CW was doing? Well, they picked it up for 10 eps with a new title...

In a change of pace from most of recorded history, the commenters are on point and correct.

/Don't recall watching anything on the CW network portion of their broadcast day.

I had to do a double take to make sure there wasn't a second H in that topic title.

I wouldn't call it "TV's lowest point" but how far are we away from that?

I suppose you can still learn stuff on TLC, though it would be more in the Goofus & Gallant sense, that is (don't do what these parents did)"- Travis Eberle, 2012

The Chair?

Moment of Truth?

As least the two above could be considered offensive.  Oh Sit only sounds about as dumb as, say, Hole in the Wall.

Not to mention The Chamber, among various others. The Chair wasn't THAT bad, but I can understand the point.

I'd say The Chamber was more offensive than The Chair by a wide margin...

I'm sorry; I always get The Chair and The Chamber mixed up.

Shows how memorable the two shows were....

Yeah, am I misremembering something? I know John McEnroe hosted, but I don't remember any blowups.

I could understand the point, though, if it was made...The Chair got a little ridiculous with the ways they tried to race the contestant's heart rate. But then again, it never stooped to the levels that The Chamber did.

Nah, that would be The CW's reaction to the overnight Nielsens. :P

The networks are really tempted to swear in their titles lately, aren't they? $#*! My Dad Says, Don't Trust The B---- in Apartment 23, and now this?

You're missing another- GCB. Guess what the B stands for?

At least it was underrated.

In Spain, there is a dangerous version of this show named "Bull Sit!"

In England, "No Sit, Sherlock!" is a hit show on BBC.

The priests are currently working on "Holy Sit!" to premiere next fall.

(Seriously, this is one of the worst game show names I've ever seen)
