Unless, of course, that's one of the tricks...

And a new level of unattentiveness has been achieved.

(I've avoided the spoilers, I'm looking forward to what they have up their sleeves. April Fools episodes of this show are usually pretty good.)

Besides this very short promo (and an overeager poster on Golden Road whose post has since been redacted), they've actually done a very good job of keeping this hush hush. I'm pleasantly surprised and look forward to this show.

I tell ya, for a guy in his 90s, Bob still amazes me with how much he does. Same goes for Betty White. The nonagenarians are making a statement. 90 is the new 70.

Nah, all a trick.

Tom Kennedy is really hosting.

Bob's going to come out in one of the sponsor's mobility scooters for which CBS will receive a fee -- product placement!!!

Not really.

Look at that two-shot of them in the video clip. A shining star next to the dimmest of dim bulbs. (SHAKES HEAD)

On whose part? The network/program? Because isn't it in their interest that lots and lots of people know that this is happening?

(Forgive me, I think I get it now, the ire is not toward anyone at the program or CBS.)

I think that Chad is simply alluding to the same thing I joked about in the next post.  Bryce "verified" my original message by posting the very same link I did.

I know he's done some stupid things, but that's not a nice thing to call Barker.

Barker says on the promo "Who knows what I'll do next?" Just keep him away from the models.  ;)
