Miss USA was on a horrible new game show on NBC called "Identity." This was obviously taped before her recent troubles. With that kind of hindsight, I thought she looked like she'd just stepped out of a crack house. She was pretty and sexy, but very hard looking. Nothing like the soft, nice girl look she had at her press conference with The Donald.
I know, the show is awful. But I got a hoot out of the contestants. One thought Bruce Jenner was a ventriloquist. Then, the next player had a category that said, "former child actor," and couldn't pick out Jerry Mathers, The Beaver. You may say, The Beaver is from a different era. True, but it is showing on TV Land nearly every day of the week.
The even worse show, "Show Me The Money", with Captain Kirk as the host, has already been cancelled. These two, plus one called "1 Vs 100", which I like, are all spin offs of original brain dead game show, "Deal or No Deal."
Show Me The Money and 1 vs. 100 both require some intellect, though I just couldn't hack an hour of Shatner's total smarminess. Deal or No Deal is just random, yet the contestants pretend like they know some secret about where random sums of money are located.
Where is Chuck Barris to give game shows some class? <G> |
