(Movies aren't as somehwat boring as they used to be back then and they still do. Save a lot of cash by going to Fandango.com and pick you flick. Once you do that, it's off to the flickhouse. Don't forget to turn off your phone when the movie's on. )

(Quick fade out)

 

Timeout's over, but we start with 3 legends gone.

 

(shore sfx)

 

Robin Williams was the biggest story that shocked the GSN community. He died of an apparent suicide at 63 years of age. He's been in many different roles, including Hook, Toys, Patch Adams, Popeye and a whole lot more. He even appeared on the Beregeron version of Hollywood Squares in the show's first season. May he RIP.

 

Another legend gone was Lauren Bacall. One half of the most famous couples in all of Hollywood, she appeared in the 60's on "Password" and "What's My Line?" She was 89.

 

Finally, Ed Nelson. He starred in one of the first nighttime soap operas on television and switched to daytime doing "Captitol." That led him to appearances on "Body Language" and "The $25,000 Pyramid." He was 85.

 

(silence)

 

Ok........now I get to recap an episode of Skin Wars in a style of a fairy tale. So let me get my big book of fairy tales......open it up and when I give the signal to Ms. Eckert to play some music while I read, we'll get started.

Once upon a time.....somewhere in Los Angeles......

 

There lived 10 body painters who signed up for a competition that let them learn about their dreams. One day, Rebecca Romijn asked the bodypainters to have a challenge. So, they decided to create from teh waist-up, paintings inpisred by the city of Hollywood, California. After a look at what was painted by the judges themselves, Dutch was the victor and was rewarded with a half-hour advantage to paint some more. The next day, the painters rested up for the next challenge, and it happened to be paintings that inspired their hometowns. Gear boxx chose the glitzy glamour of Las Vegas while Angela painted the city that recovered faithfully, New Orleans, Louisiana. felle painted the city of Motown, while Sean did the Green Mountain State, where the motto is "Freedom & Unity." Alan did Birmingham, a city known for civil rights, but Mythica went with the mile high city and Natalie went with the Lone Star State. Mythica cried out...."Why Am I not happy with why I entered this challenge?"  To which Rebecca replied, "Don't worry dear. There's a lot of competition out there. So hang on." As the challenge got closer, Nicole did the Sunshine State, Shannon did the city of Disney World and Dutch did an entire montage to The Pacific Northwest. The victors went to Shannon, Dutch & Felle, but with Mythica & Sean in danger......Alan was sent home first. Poor Alan.

 

...and the rest lived happily ever after.....until the next episode.

Kinda interesting recap, isn't it?

 

We hope you saw Idiotest last night and one person who went to the taping thought it focused too much on humor. What did you mean there was too much humor? Mind of/A Man had that. Let's hope it won't have a 40-eps.-repeat hangover to the ground gone burnt.

 

Now we check teh complaint Dept. The Chase has complaints the viewers see. Among them are:

 

"The Chase" round on The Chase consumes about 21 minutes of the 42 minute airtime.

The on-screen text has also been found more difficult to read than questions and answers on Family Feud on GSN and Who Wants to be a Millionaire? elsewhere.

It has also been reported by the public that the closed captioning overlaps the multiple choice questions during The Chase.

If you see any of them, the details will be after the 3rd period. In the meantime, let's end it with......

The GSN Closet.

 

We're letting the fans paint a picture, one confession at a time.

ANd it's the 2nd intermission presented by swagbucks.com. Lindsay Ell is a young girl from Calgary who new smash hit song "Shut Me Up" is on Itunes and pretty soon, Google Play. But we decided to have her acoustic skills on it too since it's Acoustic August. For Instance.......this one.

 

 

 

And it's the 3rd period.

 

I have Whale Mail. Casey Abell gave me a bit of a report to tell you.....

 

"I agree with you but a lot of people watched the premiere. 697K viewers, which is big for GSN."

 

697K viewers? I thought it was going to flop hard. Nearly 700K viewers watching a bodypainting show. What difference does it make? If DWTS had stayed on GSN 2 years ago and viewers were raised, that would spell doom for GSN. Glad it got out of here. But why Skin Wars? Bravo had Top Chef. Syfy has Face/off. WHy this GSN show? I'm guessing it was taken to the imagination by viewers who want to see naked bodies getting painted for a shot at $100,000. Did the folks at GSN get some HDTVs from pawn shops and thrift stores and have a viewing party in their offices and see the whole thing? Was it the people who work at a tattoo shop ask them to change the channel and watch it? Or did college students see it as an escape from watching........whatever else on TV? I don't know. This week will be a new one, so my guess will be...................100K viewers. So take that and like it.
