Oh, who is the mastermind who came up with this concept?! They must’ve been just like me as a kid, glued to the TV, watching The Price Is Right, Concentration, and any other game show that was on. I looked forward to being sick and staying home from school. I was obsessed with game shows. And now, I can watch game shows 24 hours a day! Oh, the Match Game! Press Your Luck! Card Sharks! Hollywood Squares with Paul Lynde in the center square! Oh, I can’t take it!

My personal favorite is the 10,000 Pyramid. I sighed when I heard that familiar theme song. Now I can watch Nipsy Russell and Soupy Sales as they describe "Things a Plant Might Say" or "Things That Shock You." And best of all, they created a new show for (are you sitting down?) Chuck Woolery to host!! Yes, the charming Chuck Woolery is back, hosting Lingo. The show is ok, but it’s worth it to watch good ol’ Chuck. If there was ever a man made to host a game show, Chuck is him. You may remember him as the host of Love Connection (we’ll be back in 2 and 2), and if you are a real game show junkie like I am, you know that he was the host of Wheel of Fortune before Pat Sajak. My passion for game shows has been hidden for all of these years because of well, working during the day, and because of the lack of quality game shows. My friends never saw this side of me. I walk around humming theme songs and telling them the most suspenseful moments of the day.

I am so happy to be unemployed. It’s like being a kid all over again.
