Are you over 50 and every bit as competitive and outgoing as somebody who’s 25? A new game show from the producers of NBC’s DEAL OR NO DEAL are looking for men and women over 50 years old that are ready for action and able to outshine their younger competition.

No stunts, bug-eating or dares required, just a sparkling personality and a willingness to compete.

Interested parties should send their NAME, AGE, OCCUPATION, PHONE NUMBER, a BRIEF DESCRIPTION of themselves and a RECENT PHOTO to the email address above.

Finally, the winner of this show can potentially win a SIX FIGURE CASH PRIZE!


Location: Los Angeles
Compensation: Up to Six Figures
Principals only. Recruiters, please don't contact this job poster.
Please, no phone calls about this job!
Please do not contact job poster about other services, products or commercial interests.


just a sparkling personality and a willingness to compete.


Ok, maybe not all Bored MAWGS.....

Is that with or without the two figures after the decimal point?

Just when you think something is for you, you find out you're NOT MAWGISH ENOUGH.

Ah, well, I suppose I can wait 5 years.
There is something wrong in a government where they who do the most have the least. There is something wrong when honesty wears a rag, and rascality a robe; when the loving, the tender, eat a crust while the infamous sit at banquets.

I have everything they want.

I am not doing anything until they give me more info.

What I don't have to is is not enough info.

It would be if I lived in Callyforney.

Fine with me: less competition.

For me, it's another 9+. Kind of like that cigarette commercial where the husband lamented his wife's death by saying he never thought of 23 as "middle-aged", I don't expect to live to be 100 years, either. Am I middle-middle-aged? Left-of-middle-aged?

But then the show would be open to everyone over 30.

In fact, it'd be mandatory. :twisted:
