I think I witnessed possibly the dumbest gameshow contestant in TV history. After flunking out immediately on "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?" on a very easy 1st grade question, she is surprised by Wayne Brady and taken over to play "Don't Forget the Lyrics!". It's clear as soon as she sees the 2 songs she has to choose from that she isn't going to do well on this either. She chose "I Think I Love You" by The Partridge Family. She didn't even know the song or key to sing in. Not to mention she had the worst voice that I've heard on the show yet.
After using a cheat to fill in the blanks she took the only reasonable guess and got the first one correct. Better already than her game on "5th Grader"! Next she picks the theme from "Green Acres". Yeah, the TV show. Doesn't everyone know this?! If you didn't know it from the show you probably knew it from all the headlines and crap that was made over Donald Trump singing it a few years ago. Not this woman. In all her stupidity she brings in a backup singer (It was made to appear she had no idea she'd be surprised with the opportunity to play DFTL!, but it's obvious it was all set up because of her prepared backup singers/friends and her mother in the audience. It wouldn't surprise me if the whole losing act was scripted just for this reason, to get people talking)..but anyway, back to the point..the guy had no idea either so she uses her last cheat and decides to guess and loses her $1000 and was the first player to leave the show without anything.
All I can say is, it's a good thing her stupidity matched her awful voice or I would have tuned out way before she was done. It was ear-piercing. Some people's bad singing is just funny and some are just annoying as all hell.
Fox obviously not content with having gameshows taking over their lineup, they advertised a new game show coming in January. From what I could tell, you are asked potentially embarrassing questions or what you would or wouldn't do for your best friend and gaged on a lie detector. How many comes into it I have no idea, I don't even remember money being mentioned at all. It looked ridiculous but knowing me, I'll probably watch it! Damn you, Fox! I'd probably watch a bird shit if it's made into an HD game show on Fox. Speaking of that, I don't understand why DFTL! is HD and 5th Grader isn't.
Thursday nights need Flyers games instead of Wednesdays. Which, by the way, they kicked the Canes' asses last night, 3-1. Best defense the team has played all year by far. I was going to put some commentary on the game tonight but this game show shit came up and I need to end this now because you're probably not even reading this now. If you are you're really bored. Go do something. I appreciate you reading, but really, why do you care about me this much already? It's only my 4th post. Go on now. Shitpancake Tower.
Randomness.
