KSK Commenter Draft: If You Had To Win One Game Show To Get Yourself Out Of Purgatory…

If you think you’ve screwed your life up sufficiently, just relax. You’ll have plenty more opportunities to jam the proverbial shovel into the soily base of that sorry pit that you call a life, and dig yourself an even deeper hole. Then, when the judgement comes [clutches bible in one hand and shakes it vigorously in your direction], you’ll have to answer for all the bullshit thou hath wrought, motherfucker.

But suppose you catch a break, and someone upstairs decides to grant you one more chance to atone, to come on down and spin the wheel or answer that riddle or eat that bug or whatever the fuck. Suppose you were put on a game show, against other dipshits like yourself. But in this episode, your fabulous cash and prizes for winning would be one first-class aisle-seat ticket to Heaven, or your religion’s equivalent. If you’re atheist, let’s just say you’d get a nice watch.

And herein lies the basis for our latest summoning of the vox populi. You are selecting a game show that you will be forced to play to determine your future in the afterlife. And, as with any other half-assed stab at democracy, there are a few stipulations to consider:

Your game must be played against other people. Single-player game shows, such as Deal Or No Deal, are out. That game creates a conflict of interest anyway, as host Howie Mandel is, in fact, a minion of Satan.

You may select a game show that would team you with a celebrity or celebrities, or anyone you like. You are asked to specify who will be rounding out your team with your selection.

Reality shows shall be considered game shows for our purposes here, and may be selected, provided that your selections meet the aforementioned criteria.

Your game show does not have to have originated in America. You are expected to provide a link and explanation for games that may seem unfamiliar to the rest of us. Use hyperlinks; the spam filter will block your pick if you copy and paste a URL. Also, only one incarnation of any game show can be selected.

Wait at least ten picks before making subsequent selections.

I’ll pick first, and I’ll take the Nickelodeon classic Double Dare, since my parents were assholes and never let me go on the show when I was a kid. I’m pretty sure I can outsmart a couple of 12-year-olds. Kids are dumb! And since I’ll need a smart, athletic partner upon which to hang my hopes, I’m also picking USA Gold Medalist, Harvard alum, and Celebrity Apprentice veteran Angela Ruggiero.

This might be the first commenter draft where the post was longer than the picks. Either way, it’s your turn.

    “How many people out of 100 have enjoyed colonics? Well, Jim, I know me and my sister in Omaha have, so I’ll say 88 percent.”

  28. Auksyte Says:

    When i saw the title of the post, my first thought was Double Dare… but since that was taken I will pick the price is right. and my partner will be bob barker since hes no longer hosting it. talk about edge!!

  29. smperk Says:

  33. big dave Says:

    fucking MXC at #2. i didn’t even have a chance.

    i’m going with the fake kids in the hall game, “Feel Yat!” All i’d have to do is figure out what a fish is by feeling it while wearing oven mits. genious.

  34. Wormfather (AKA Aaron) Says:

    Hell’s Kitchen, I know I could cook better than those fucks.

    I would have gone with the bachelor but the black guy never gets passed the second rose ceremony. I also thought about Family Feud, but my family is stupid.

  35. TF Says:

    Cash Cab.

    I fancy myself smarter than a NYC tourist.

  36. Wormfather (AKA Aaron) Says:

    TF, you cant pick masturbation games, ie games that where you dont play against someone.

  37. hardawayhatesyou Says:

    Fuck UU……I thought I would get a steal of the Feud this late.

    It never ceases to amaze me how horrible people are on that show. Also, only the old version with Richard Dawson is any good; the new ones suck.

    I’ll go with The Power of Ten….kind of like the Feud.

  38. smurphette Says:

    @UU: Hey, I’m just tryin’ to get to heaven. My family watched it almost every night during dinner when I was growing up, and it’s the only game show I really watched besides Double Dare.

    @flub: Sorry, but I totally own at Jeopardy. You don’t want a piece of this.

    Next pick: It’s Academic. (The DC natives should know it.) And my two teammates are my friends David and Lizzie from high school.

  39. Tracer Bullet Says:

    “The Dating Game” wherein I will be selecting from Bachelorette #1 Emmanuelle Chriqui, Bachelorette #2 Aisha Tyler and Bachelorette #3 Molly Parker. I. Cannot. Lose.

  42. The White Boom Boom Says:

    The Match Game…Brett Somers, Betty White, and a terribly drunk Richard Dawson will save my soul.

  43. Mike H. Says:

    SNL celeb jeopardy…versus Connery and Burt Reynolds.

  44. hardawayhatesyou Says:

    A lot of double picks here thus far. Lets play by the rules, kids.

    /pushes glasses up nose

  45. grungedave Says:

    That short-lived ESPN game-show “2 minute drill” (hosted by Kenny Mayne)

    though I would refuse to allow Lennox Lewis to be the guy reading the questions to me. That fucker reads sloooooowwww.

  46. TF Says:

    @Wormfather

    Fuck. You’re right. I’ll take Who Wants to be a Millionaire?

    It counts because you have to beat those other fuckers in the first little speed round thing.

    And it had better be “Dragon’s Lair” day or I am FUCKED.

  52. Caveman Captain Says:

    My apologies. I did CTRL+F of “Sale” and got nothing. I forgot that it could be spelled with a dollar sign.

  53. Tracer Bullet Says:

    MXC was the first pick, goof ball.

    I’ll take numberwang

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=qjOZtWZ56lc&feature=related

  54. Upstate Underdog Says:

    Bowling for Dollars

  55. jenny Says:

    vh1’s world series of pop culture
    taking my friend larry & perhaps tarantino as my teammates. yeah. we’d sweep. we’re just that geeky.

  56. Rocco Says:

    I should have expected numerous other degenerates to have watched MXC…damn.

    I’ll take Dueling for Playmates.

  57. Big Daddy Drew Says:

    Studs.

    Cause I like makin’ bacon on the beach.

  58. Shinons Says:

    The Happy Smile Super Challenge Family Wish Show. Because the only other thing I can think of is Win, Lose, or Draw…and I hate that show.

  59. Big Daddy Drew Says:

    And Liar’s Club.

    What’s that thing? It’s uh… an anal shellelagh.

  60. John John The Bastard Says:

    Don’t Forget The Lyrics.

  61. hardawayhatesyou Says:

    The Mole.

    My ability to compulsively lie is a huge advantage.

  62. porky1 Says:

    American Idol.

    Because at heart all it is, is a fucking game show. And were I to lose, I would get a chance to dive over the table and take Rupert to hell with me.

    But I wouldn’t lose.

  63. rusrus Says:

    Rock of Love

    I’ll choke those tramps in the mud wrestling event, and Bret will be all mine…

  64. porky1 Says:

    (Also forgot to mention that I always refer to Simon as “Rupert” because I fucking hate that prick.)

  65. Chris Says:

    I’ll take the Newlywed game bitches, with my recent bride Marissa Miller. ** Winner, winnder Chicken Dinner!!!!!

  66. Tracer Bullet Says:

    The Newlywed Game.

    In the butt, Bob.

  67. Daydream Billiever Says:

    Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

    answer to the first question, yes, yes I am….

  68. Chris Says:

    *winner, winner*- See my wife had me all excited and ………….

  69. Tracer Bullet Says:

    Stab your eyes, Chris.

    I’ll take the first round of Ninja Warrior. I can beat the first round. On a very good day I could beat the second. There is absolutely no way in hell I could beat the third.

  70. Chris Says:

    @ Tracer

    For once in my life, it paid me to be premature.

  71. Rocco Says:

    Concentration. Memory for “adults”. Fuck me if I can’t win that game.

  72. Hobo Magic Says:

    Legends of the Hidden Temple…oh so gay

  73. smurphette Says:

    @rusrus: Not if Brady Quinn has anything to say about it. Douche though he may be, those guns don’t lie.

    I’ll take Ninja Warrior. Like all women, I have weak arms, and would most definitely lose. But since I’m already getting into heaven via Jeopardy, it doesn’t matter.

  74. porky1 Says:

    Pig in a Poke!

    It pays to be a glutton…

  75. Rocco Says:

    * As an aethiest (agnostic at best), I’d like room & board for life/eternity in the Playboy Mansion as my prize. I already have a watch.

  76. Shinons Says:

    The Weakest Link. For the same reasons that porky1 chose American Idol.

  77. smurphette Says:

    Fucking Tracer Bullet. Fine, I take Who’s Line Is It Anyway?

    Again, it’s okay that the winner is completely arbitrary, because I’m already golden with my first pick.

  78. smaaron Says:

    Let’s Make a Deal!!!!

    DON’T TAKE DOOR #3. IT’S A ZONK.

  79. Smello Says:

    The Amazing Race.

    My partner would be Matthew McNolikeyshirts because…well…he’s fit. And hot.

  80. Rocco Says:

    Damn you smurphette…I had WLIIA on my board.

  81. Chris Says:

    Let’s Make a Deal. I know, I’m supposed to wait 10 picks before choosing agian but I’m late for a meeting and traded up to get this pick.

  82. devin hester's speech coach Says:

    Stump the Schwab. I’d spike a football off that fat bastard’s face so he would have a lazy eye to match Stu’s.

  83. Rocco Says:

    @Chris…you’re gonna be even later cause smaaron already took it…might as well skip the meeting and try for eternal salvation.

  84. Mike H. Says:

    stump the schwab

    /I’m screwed…all the the cool people are gonna be in hell anyway

  85. Chris Says:

    Fuck, Smaaron. I trade up to find my game gone. Oh well, I wasn’t premature enough this time. Story of my life.

  86. kanye east Says:

    a stretch, i choose ‘the 20 dollar sack pyramid’, from dr dre’s ‘the chronic’ album.

    ‘…playin for a 20 sack of endo, and a 35 dollar gift certificate to the compton swap meet!!’ your choice of partners - duck muthafuckin’ mouth, bootney lee farnsworth, or ookie.

  87. Sunshine Scooter Says:

    Stump the Schwab, FTW!!!!!

  88. Tracer Bullet Says:

    It’s a damned shame Calvinball and 43 Man Squamish aren’t game shows.

    I’ll take Human Tetris. If I’m going to be cast into the Neverending Pits of Despair and Ultimate Suffering I should at least get a laugh on the way.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ll2kajMH2u0

  89. Sunshine Scooter Says:

    Dangit, too slow…

  90. 85 Says:

    Is Alex Trebek shirtless in hell? Because I think I may be ready to accept Jesus as my Lord and personal Savior.

  93. bubbacj24 Says:

    Big Brother: Scandinavia or anywhere else you can fuck on camera.

  94. EberleWerner Says:

    Slow Adults vs. Porn Stars from Howard Stern.

  95. Chris Says:

    I told them I was on a conference call just to select……………The Gong Show. Using the same sketchy rational for American Idol. The Gong Show was the tits. And with that ladies & gentleman, cue Gene, Gene The Dancing Machine, ….

    I’m out.

  96. John John The Bastard Says:

    The Joe Schmoe Show. I am pretty sure I could have been able to figure out that it was all bullshit about the time that I was handcuffed to the virginal christian girl in a challenge and her boyfriend from home just randomly showed up.

  97. Rocco Says:

    Eco Challenge. I’ll take 3 of the 4 girls from the Playboy Extreme team…Yes, there is theme in my draft.

  98. porky1 Says:

    Sabado Gigante.

    The game show portion is like the Price is Right with huge Latina knockers.

  99. smaaron Says:

    @ Chris

    I screw you with Let’s Make a Deal, you take my next pick with The Gong Show.

    Let’s call it even.

  100. randy Says:

    fun house.

    and as soon as I win, I punch JD Ross in the mouth (Jesus would LOVE that).

  101. Tracer Bullet Says:

    “I Know Black People.” I’ve been black all my life and for once my shameful racial history is an advantage instead of a liability.

  102. citizinKane Says:

    The Benefactor!

    I fucking OWN Jenga!!

  103. Rocco Says:

    * If The Amazing Race/Survior type shows count, I consider Eco-Challenge to count. Same thing without the fake tv drama.

  104. bubbacj24 Says:

    Maury, for sure.

    That little shit is most definitely NOT my kid.

  105. Dr. Quim Snaggletaint Says:

    I’ll take Wipeout, the new ABC version of MXC that is premiering soon. Loophole bitches.

  106. Joey Jo-Jo Jr Shabadoo Says:

    Real World/Road Rules challenge. Just don’t piss to many people off and hook up with drunk shanks when we aren’t doing stupid challenges….I win

  107. devin hester's speech coach Says:

    The Grand Prize Game from the Bozo Show. I’d sink bucket #6 for that Benjamin and new Schwinn bicycle.

  108. big dave Says:

    @randy

    it was JD Roth on Fun House, not Ross

  109. Your Wife's Lipstick Says:

    High Quiz Bowl…

    What - no body here grew up in west central Wisconsin.

    It’s team trivial pursuit - I’ll take Ben Stein, Isac Assimov and Bill Gates as my team

    W!ld and Crazy K!ds

    Teammates would be the Bash Brothers from Mighty Ducks 2

  111. rusrus Says:

    Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model Search

    Win, lose, no matter. After I plow-through that pile of ‘tang, you can send me to hell…

  112. Joey Jo-Jo Jr Shabadoo Says:

    @EberleWerner

    That segment on Stern was great

  113. TF Says:

    “Wait, wait. Don’t tell me”

    /shows self out.

  114. Oz Says:

    nick arcade, because I can’t think of the name of the show that was like it but better

  115. porky1 Says:

    Let’s Make a Dope Deal!

    “How many joints are in a lid?”

    “Uh…two.”

    “Two?”

    “I roll big joints.”

  116. John Rocker 4 Prez Says:

    Get The Picture from Nick. That show was so fucking easy even without the obvious hints mike o’mally would hand out like candy. I could be Hitler and still get into heaven.

  117. Cardboard Pergo Says:

    The World Series of Dice…and El Domingo is gonna bring a ghetto blaster that we built out of a walkman, a guitar amp, a car battery and a stolen hand-truck from home depot.

    /get money like ten mo’ times

  118. John John The Bastard Says:

    Dammit Porky that was gonna be my next pick. I love latinas.

    Well then I pick Sox Appeal, why, because I don’t think it would be very hard to trick Boston fans in to liking me.

  119. mamacita Says:

    Texaco Star Academic Challenge. It was the local version of Quiz Bowl.

    NERRRRRDS!

  120. make it snow Says:

    My pick: Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader? Because, well… yes. Yes I am.

  121. make it snow Says:

    Shit, I just realized that probably doesn’t count because I’m technically competing against some imaginary ideal fifth grader rather than the actual fifth graders on the show

  122. John John The Bastard Says:

    @ TF, truly inspired choice, I love the NPR news quiz. I, in fact, have Carl Cassel’s voice on my home answering machine, too bad everyone calls my cell. I won Bluff the Listener.

  123. smaaron Says:

    I select the fictionalized “The Running Man,” with partner Arnold Schwarzenegger.

    No way I am going to hell without taking someone there with me.

  124. rusrus Says:

    @make it snow

    Also, that was taken like 40 minutes ago by Daydream Billiever.

    Wake-up!

  125. Daydream Billiever Says:

    Double Stuf Racing League
    I’ll team up with Peyton and whoop Elisha’s butt

  126. smurphette Says:

    Tracer Bullet FTW

    Best question ever: “Why didn’t black people trust Ronald Reagan?”

  127. porky1 Says:

    Make Me Laugh.

    Featuring guest “comedians” Dane Cook, Mo’Nique, and Jeff Foxworthy.

    Easy victory. Hell, I might even fall asleep.

  128. nondairykreemer Says:

    If it hasn’t been picked: Lingo.

    And my partner is whichever little fucker just won the spelling bee.

  129. Matt Says:

    Let’s Make A Deal, bitches. ALWAYS change doors after they remove one!

  130. BigTravATX Says:

    God Damn it Tracer you stole my first pick… Ive been actually working and couldnt get in till now…

    Im gonna have to go back in the day here….

    WHEEL OF FISH.

    “Ahhh, a red snapper. Mmmmm, very tasty. Okay, Weaver, listen carefully. You can hold on to your red snapper… or you can go for what’s in the box that Hiro-San is bringing down the aisle right now! What’s it gonna be?

    I’ll take the box. The box!

    You took the box? Let’s see what’s in the box! Nothing! Absolutely nothing! STUPID! You’re so STU-PIIIIIIIIIIID!”

  131. make it snow Says:

    @rusrus: Heh, I guess that’s what I get for CTRL+F’ing “fifth” but not “5th.”

    Anyway, since I botched that pick in like twelve different ways, give me the episode of 1 vs. 100 where the mob is composed of 100 kids.

  132. porky1 Says:

    BigTrav, you actually beat me to that one.

    “SUPPLIES!!!!”

  133. Andrea Says:

    To Tell the Truth. Becuase I’d be good at it and because Match Game was taken an hour ago.

  134. Juice Springsteen Says:

    Where in the World is Carmen San Diego. I own that broad.

    Unless I get the Africa map at the end.

  135. BigTravATX Says:

    SUPPLIES!

  136. Wormfather (AKA Aaron) Says:

    Fuck it, there arnt enough game shows to go around so I’m breaking the rules, that’s right, I’m breaking them, intentially.

    Moment of Truth, I’m sure St. Peter would make an exception for this game.

    “Wormfather, is it true that you have fantasies about women other than your fiancee”

    “Fuck yeah!”

    “That answer is…truthy”

  137. BS Says:

    I know it was picked forever ago…but I dont care…Im joining White Boom Boom on “Match Game” (hell, I’ll be the other contestant) and we’ll both watch the rest of you burn from our puffy white clouds playing our silly harps.

  138. Grimey Says:

    Hot Potato… I’d be on a team of web developers, and hopefully we’d be matched up against a team of housewives.

    Unless they pull out a “Shows on Lifetime” category. Then I’m fucked.

  139. Naptown Drew Says:

    I’m a little late so I can’t believe this one isn’t off the board:

    The Moment of Truth

    All you have to do is tell the fucking truth. Is your life so full of bullshit that you can’t even do it? Damn you people!

    /Not trying to hear this is a game played against yourself. They throw in family members who directly influence the game. Suck it.

  140. SideAngleSide Says:

    well since legends of the hidden temple is already gone…..i have to go with “nickelodeon arcade.” That show was the balls (from what I remember) and as a bonus, the kids were fucking terrrrrible at videogames. Heaven for sure.

  141. Naptown Drew Says:

    WORMFATHERRRR!!!!! NOOOOOO!

  142. Jefferson Short Bus Says:

    High Rollers. Like craps, but different.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rCFGgjIa9I

  143. BigTravATX Says:

    Joe Vs Pros… I could smoke any of those old fuckers. Although I saw one episode where they had to go 5 minutes in a cage with a dude from UFC and whoever got submitted the least times won… FUCK THAT

  144. Naptown Drew Says:

    Fine then,

    I Love New York.

    All you have to do is buy her shit and bait the other mongoloids into punching you. Game over, you win.

  145. porky1 Says:

    High Rollers.

    But Alex Trebek has to wear a shirt.

  146. porky1 Says:

    @ Jefferson…

    Wow, as I TYPED IT…shit. Denied.

  147. ognihs Says:

    blind date because i’m not afraid of looking dumber than i already am. i fucking loved that show.

  148. porky1 Says:

    SMASH TV

    With John Rambo (circa 1987) as my partner.

    “BIG MONEY! BIG PRIZES! I LOVE IT!”

  149. ABM Says:

    ummm I’m not sure if this counts for double… but Jeopardy Kid’s Week. I might still go to hell but atleast I’d get a Dell

  150. Biggus Rickus Says:

    Password with Joe Pesci, because I think we’d really hit it off and be best friends and then I could loose his baseball bat wielding ass on my enemies, probably consiging myself back to hell. But really, fuck heaven. None of the cool people are there.

  153. Grandjester Says:

    Yes but WHICH Match Game? I do believe that ‘76 was the seminal version.

    I pick “Geek, Dweeb or Spaz” from SNL.

  154. ABM Says:

    If not… then Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?

    Multiple choice selection of bitches with a great rack… you just got to pick the right sweater puppets to the correct broad.

    Thanks for the support. I didn’t know how that pick would go over with this crowd.

    /dick joke

    What’s the word on the street ABM?

  161. porky1 Says:

    My final selection is “ASSHOLE/JACKOFF/SCUMBAG?”

    I will make it interesting by selecting Jerry Jones for the subject while squaring off against fellow contestants Chan Gailey and Drew Bledsoe. It should be really exciting. Personally, I’m going with “Asshole” though a strong case could be made for any of the three.

  162. jackin'4beats Says:

    @kanye east: +1 for that pick.

    That is truly hilarious. Will you have the D.O.C.’s scratchy voice too?

  163. sdbruin Says:

    $1.98 beauty pageant. I win everlasting life. (anything Chuck Barris-related will do)

  164. Tracer Bullet Says:

    @ BigTravATX

    If it makes you feel any better, your recreation of Wheel of Fish made me shoot raspberry yogurt through my nose. Reading it in the “Hines Wold” voice made it even funnier.

  165. devin hester's speech coach Says:

    What was the name of the game show from back in the 80’s where you had to guess scrambled words that appeared on car license plates? Anyone remember this?

  166. BigTravATX Says:

    Tracer: It was a good consolation pick for sure!

    My last pick is “Everybody Loves Hypnotoad!” Is it a gameshow? I DONT KNOW BUT I FUCKIN LOVE IT!

  167. rusrus Says:

    @devin hester’s speech coach

    Bumper Stumpers - it was my first pick, months ago now…

  168. Jeff K Says:

    Jackie Rogers Jr. $100,000 Dollar Jackpot Wad.

    Word: [ ASPARAGUS ]

    Sammy Davis, Jr.: Okay, this is a long shaft kind of thing with a tip on the end . . .
    Rajeev Vindaloo: [ winks ]
    Sammy Davis, Jr.: Next!

  169. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    It’s about quarter past nine (western standard time) and the best shows are long gone, so what what’s with the shirtless Trebek? That and do you remember that on early-era “Wheel of Fortune” you had to spend your prize money on their stupid merchandise? “I’ll take the porcelain cat for $400, Pat.”

  170. jackin'4beats Says:

    I’ll now take Viking: The Ultimate Obstacle Course because I just love how twisted, sadistic and crazy the Japanese are. And the fact that they purposely put themselves in danger for some Yen.

    KAMIKAZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  171. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    @ Jeff K
    Your Jackie Rogers Jr. reference has made my young day. I shall award you somebody’s first-born child.

  172. lowguppy Says:

    I came in too late to get anything good. I wanted Carmen San Diego but its been picked, I would’ve kicked ass on that show when I was young enough to be on it.

    I guess I’ll take celebrity fear factor, since there’s almost no skill or talent involved. I’ll be up against some squeamish actresses that I can beat in the physical challenges. I’ll take on Renee “Cumcatcher” just to see her choke on worms, Paris Hilton because/despite the fact that she has no gag reflex (though she will do anything on that show, she’ll fail at the physical challenges, unless they’re marathon gang-bangs) and Heidi Kluum, because she weighs like 85 pounds, and her ass has it coming for that Christmas Time song she did.

    Actually, that’s a pretty awesome pick, fuck you guys.

  173. ABM Says:

    @rant_casey I’m gonna stick with The Chief

    Alright last pick… Robot Wars with this as my teammate (of sorts).

    Ain’t nobody Fuck’n with my TALON robot

  174. John John The Bastard Says:

    I pick “I Survived a Japanese Game Show” - It’s exactly like MXC but with a different name and Americans getting sent over there to compete. I saw it advertised during LOST.

    /Goes back to searching the internet for hidden clues in the episodes.

  175. Tracer Bullet Says:

    The Japanese game show Endurance. Between their love of underage girls, fucked up game shows and tentacle rape, the Japanese have some problems they should address.

  176. devin hester's speech coach Says:

    Thanks rusrus, I could not remember that shit.

  177. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    Has anybody picked the Japanese game show from the SNL in which Chris Farley gets tortured? If you have, you’re a dumbass.

  178. Otto Man Says:

    Dammit, I get here way too late and all the good ones are gone. For the record, Match Game ‘74 is the correct answer — if for no other reason than this — but Double Dare, Remote Control and MXC are all excellent lottery picks. Wheel of Fish and Jackie Rogers are incredible calls as well.

    No offense, Smurphette and Flub, but if we get into a game of Jeopardy your asses are mine. I still have about $500 in credit at a sports bar in Atlanta from drunken trivia nights when I lived there, and the last time anyone challenged me to Trivial Pursuit, there was a Clenis in the White House.

    Since all the good ones are taken, I’ll have to go with “MILF Island.”

  179. Pemulis Says:

    has anyone picked that crossword puzzle-y game? I cant remember what it’s called and i’m too stupid and lazy to look it up or care really since all the good game shows are taken already. shit.

  180. Otto Man Says:

    Wait, I’d like to change my pick to “Quien Es Mas Macho?”

    It’s so easy to win. The answer is always “Ricardo Montalban.”

  181. rusrus Says:

    @Pemulis

    I think you mean Scrabble with Chuck Woolery?
    Shit, I know way too much about old time gameshows…

  182. denvergodfather Says:

    @ Gino Tourettsa - mi hatchi ju hatchi. Oh no the correct answer is mi hatchi ku hatchi.

  183. Otto Man Says:

    And in honor of Charles Nelson Reilly, the main theme.

  184. tim Says:

    So much Japanese game show gold to mine. I’d take this one where you have to eat marshmallows with a rubberband around your face, because I have an especially stretchy nose.

  185. Gino Tourettsa Says:

    Punter,
    Did you go to google images and punch in “shirtless Alex Trebek”?

  186. Pemulis Says:

    @rusrus: i cant believe a) that it was called Scrabble, and b) that I somehow didn’t know or remember that it was called Scrabble.

    /is dumb

  187. Pemulis Says:

    Oh, actually. I’m dumber than I thought. the Game Show I was actually thinking of was called (Surprise!) Crosswords
