Cash Money Millionaires

it's official game show contestants are idiots and here's why.

wheel of fortune
ok if you have a puzzle like this: t_k_ng a n_p and the clue is what are you doing. don't buy a vowel. same goes for if you have a clue like this: ood burn_n_ s_ _ ve and the clue is around the house don't spin until you guess all the consonants! you're going to get a lose a turn or bankrupt. solve the damn puzzle. and don't yell at the wheel it's not voice activated.

who wants to be a millionaire
have people really not figures out yet that phone a friend means google it. also, do the person a favor and paraphrase the question. key words people.

family feud
i once heard this while watching the end part of the show where you pick 2 people to answer the questions "name a subject you study in school" and the lady no joke said "beverly hills"

don't forget the lyrics
lets say the category is the 70s and the song is light my fire by the doors and you've sung
come on baby light my fire
come on baby light my fire
__ __ __ __ __ __ ___

and you think it's something like blah blah blah blah night on fire and for some reason you choose the 2 word back up. don't waste it on the blanks that are words like the, and, we. armatures.

are you smarter than a 5th grader
you don't have to go in order. why people don't save subjects they are confident in for the last questions i don't know. (that comment goes for don't forget the lyrics too) plus on both of those shows i've never seen somebody actually go for the million dollars. don't you think they'd change the rules or something to make the shows more dramatic.

the price is right
now this really has nothing to do with the contestants but have you ever noticed that the prizes are still from the 70s. nobody wants a brass baby cradle or a black lacquer bedroom set with a water bed. i haven't watched the show since drew carey took over so maybe the prizes are better now but somehow i doubt it.

cash cab
people don't use their shout outs. all the time people get kicked out with both shout outs left. ben bailey has to have told them about them. i watch the show enough to know the drill he always says the same thing. on the after dark version it's safe to say they might be trashed. the riders in the daytime version however, have no excuse.


i am dying to be on don't forget the lyrics. no i don't really like to sing in public but i do well when i play at home. they used to show back to back episodes saturday morning starting at like 4am and i'd dvr them and totally kick ass. patrick has suggested that i just drive to la or anaheim and just try to get on game shows. it does have the potential to be very lucrative but they don't like to use people over again even if it's a different show. with my luck i'd get on something and suck and win nothing.

song lyrics of the day:
you are the money maker
she wants to overtake you
