I remember that line from the clerk at Ghostbusters when the first call came....
"WE GOT ONE!!!!"
Congrats!!!

Hopefully lots more on the way like it was at Ghostbusters.

I am so happy!

I have room to be even happier if TBTB will call more people on the BB list.

P.S. Good luck on the new job. If a call from Millionaire in the middle of the interview isn't an unsolicited testimonial on your infinite brilliance and charm, I just don't know what is!

WTG MIKE!!!!!!!

Obviously, you can probably find PAFs better than me but if you need someone for Sports or Pop Culture specifically I'm not sure you can do any better considering I do nothing but entertainment crap for my job nowadays...and obviously I can Google.

The carryover (if any) for the August 13th show will air on Sunday, August 16th.

Best of luck

w00t! Sweet! Cool! Awesome! there is room for more cliches
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Way to go Mike! You posted some of the most awesome audition advice for which I am very grateful! Now go lay a big one on Regis! I can think of few more deserving.

As far as your list, literature is my weak suit, but I was a finalist in the 2004 National Geography Bee representing Florida, as well as 2005 and 2007 high school geography competitions (placed 5th nationally in 2007). I have ofer strong points I mentioned in the PAF thread, but regardless, big big congrats to you!
In this town, don't we love it now, everbody's waiting for the next surprise!

Way to go, Mike!

Here's the broadcast schedule:
“Millionaire” will air Sunday through Thursday nights at 8 p.m., starting Aug. 9. The show will take a rest on Friday and Saturday. Its grand finale will be Sunday, Aug. 23. So by my calculation...

The 8/9 show will be taped on 7/29.
The 8/10 and 8/11 shows will be taped on 7/30
The 8/12 and 8/13 shows will be taped on 7/31
The 8/16 and 8/17 shows will be taped on 8/3
The 8/18 and 8/19 shows will be taped on 8/4
The 8/20 and 8/23 shows will be taped on 8/5
