I will venture to watch it, rather than tape it.

There just might be a road trip to NYC in my future.

I will invite others to join me in the endeavor if I am enrolled in trying out for the show.

Let's not have it cast with 20 something actor types.

Rosie O'Donnell and Betty White are two of the celebrity partners.

I asked for Bea on my application. Maybe that's why they dint call me - she has better things to do, having just reached 86. Happy birthday Bea.

I'd be there.

I wonder if they only called 'local' people.

I will pick some soap star who I know tapes in NYC, or a broadway person, or one of the ladies of The View.

I was pleased at how bright Joy Behar was on celebrity Millionaire - she was an English teacher for years. You and she might have good chemistry.

My second choice is Carson Kressley, who was pretty good on celebrity Jeopardy. But they dint ask for a second choice.

I saw a segment on this last week on one of those Hollywood Access type shows while I was waiting for the Dancing with the Stars segment that they had teased earlier. It was the first I'd heard of it.

They had an interview with Neil Patrick Harris, who made some funny joke about a game show that required skills other than being able to say a number or something like that. (He said it funnier, but I can't remember the exact).

I'd love to be on it if I got NPH as my partner. I love everything about him and I get the feeling that he might be the modern day Tony Randall of game show celebrities. (Old people will know what I'm talking about and nod their head while voicing grunts of recognition.)

I thought he was found dead in a brothel.

Tony Randall or Neil Patrick Harris? I can't imagine either one of them having cause to be in a brothel in the first place.

Did you hear that big THUNK when something just flew right over my head and landed out in the cornfield?

No thunk.....NPH was shot in back while running from a brothel. Harold and Kumar left him for dead. But during the end credits he miraculously arose and was fine which means he'll be in the third H&K flick.

Was there info on how to audition? I looked for it but couldn't find it. Although I admit I looked only very briefly...

But it did fly over my head, I knew you were referencing something, but had no idea what it was. See what happens when I stop reading Entertainment Weekly? I remember hearing something about an after the credits thing like they did in X3, but didn't know the particulars.

It's not "Password". It's a bastardized version of "Password" that more resembles "The $___,000 Pyramid".

I had the great luck of having Tony Randall as my partner on Pyramid. That guy was really great.

I think you are right about me and Joy clicking.

I think I will name her if I see that the show is something I could do well at playing.

What a great idea that is!

I will make a list. I will not answer just one. They will either like that or not.

I don't keep up. Is this a network prime time show or syndicated?

If it's prime time, when is it scheduled to be on? Thanks in advance.

Do you think having appeared with Regis on BAM would work for an applicant or against it?

I always think previous game show appearances is a plus. They know you can handle the stress, the cameras and all that.
