Can you take Padma Lakshmi to block? Sure you can.
Indian on-demand service and affiliate pay TV network Star MAA are working up a local version of classic CBS gameshow format Hollywood Squares.
Hollywood_SquaresThe series is hitting the localmarket through boutique content house Morris Street Advisors, which acquired the format from distributor CBS Studios International.
The Indian version, shot in the Telugu language and which will be known as Tollywood Squares, debuts locally on January 27. It will run to 26 episodes.
The news is a boon for Morris Street, which recently saw another US client, Lionsgate, end their relationship ahead of the launch of Lionsgate India.
Asian VOD service Viu, meanwhile, is hungry for international formats. In December, it commissioned an adventure reality series, I Can You Can, from BBC Worldwide India.
GroupM-owned Motion Content Group is also attached to the project.
The Hollywood Squares format dates back to 1965 and is based on the game of Tic-tac-toe. It features a 3×3 vertical stack board of open-faced cubes, each of which a celebrity facing contestants occupies.
The stars answer questions from a host and the contestants have to decide if they are telling the truth. The player that gains squares in the right pattern wins the contest.
US broadcaster CBS has often delved into its classic TV catalogue as an option for international networks. It 2015, it sold rights to scripted series I Love Lucy to MTG’s Latvian broadcast arm in one recent example.
“At Viu, our constant focus is to bring refreshing narratives and exciting new formats that appeal to the millennials,” said Vishal Maheshwari, country head of Viu India. “Our insights gave us the belief that a format like this, which is iconic in its own right globally, would be a timely new addition to our bouquet of differentiated content.”
Rohit Tiwari CEO, Morris Street Advisors, said: “This is a milestone moment for Morris Street Advisors. As a leading provider of entertainment content, we are now placing more focus on producing popular programming that captivates Indian viewers.”
Roxanne Pompa, VP of international formats at CBS Studios International, said: “Hollywood Squares has had success in many countries around the world, and we’re convinced it will appeal to viewers in India. We are thrilled to be working with Morris Street Advisors to bring this iconic game show format to Indian audiences.”

Going through a winter storm of sorts, here's the Yay & Yawn of December/January.
The Yay: The Joker's Wild gets another season.......with Snoop. Smokin'!
The Yawn: This.
Word of advice: Arizona Tea is much cheaper than toothpaste. You heard me?
After this commercial word, HQ pays up....to cheap people.
That's...............when Game Show Live! returns.

Here's some HQ news for you.
The HQties have spoken, and creators Rus Yusupov & Colin Kroll have listened.
As Just Jared reported on Friday, HQ Trivia has made two major rule changes, modifying how the cash prizes and the extra lives work.
According to Just Jared, the live quiz game will now allow anyone and everyone to cash out their winnings, no matter how much money they’ve earned playing the app. As HQ Trivia announced on Twitter on Friday, “It's payday, baby! We've removed the minimum balance required to cash out your HQ winnings. Put that money in the bank today!”
Before this new rule existed, players could only cash out if they had a balance of $20 or more in their banks, and winnings would be forfeited if they were not claimed within 90 days. As the HQ Trivia terms of service put it,
“You will need a minimum Prize balance of $20 in your account to cash-out via PayPal, a third party service.”
And:
“The winner must cash-out the Prize within 90 days after the date of notification of such Prize. A Contest winner's failure to cash-out the Prize within the specified 90 days will be considered such Contest winner's forfeiture of the Prize and Sponsor may, at its option and sole discretion, choose not to award the Prize at all. If an entrant is found to be ineligible, Sponsor may, at its option and sole discretion, choose not to award the Prize at all.”
And as for the second brand new HQ Trivia rule? Players now have more freedom when it comes to using their extra lives. You know how the game would make you spend your extra life if you missed a question, whether you liked it or not? Well, from now on, you can decide if you actually want to use an extra life, or if you'd rather save it for later. So, if and when you earn some bonus lives, don't worry: You can do whatever you want with 'em.

No fear for this.....
"Fear Factor" returns with a new season of physical and psychological challenges that will push contestants to their limits like never before.

Only the bravest (and craziest) will walk away with the $50K cash prize and "Fear Factor" bragging rights.

Four Real?
A former employee has accused “The Four” judge Charlie Walk of sexual misconduct.
Tristan Cooperman said Walk, the Republic Records Group president, “made me feel sick to my stomach almost every day” when she worked for him at a Sony division years ago.
Walk told “Entertainment Tonight” the allegation was from more than a decade ago and was “false.” He said he has “consistently been a supporter of the women’s movement.”
Neither Walk nor Cooperman immediately responded to HuffPost’s requests for comment.
The accusation, Deadline pointed out, emerges at a critical time for “The Four,” the singing talent show on Fox that premiered Jan. 4. The grand prize is a recording contract with Republic, which Walk runs. The show began its final round of taping this week, Deadline said.
“We have only recently learned of these past allegations regarding Mr. Walk,” Fox said in a statement. “We are currently reviewing this matter and are committed to fostering a safe environment on all of our shows.”
A spokesperson for Republic’s parent organization, Universal Music Group, told “Entertainment Tonight”: “While it appears this blog post relates to the period prior to Mr. Walk’s appointment to his position at Republic Records, we take the allegations very seriously and intend to conduct a full and complete review of this matter.”

And finally, a classic video game legend becomes a game show.
Can this be true?

Pong—the groundbreaking electronic table tennis game that’s been known to remain absolutely riveting for upwards of seven minutes at a time—is about to get the TV game show treatment. Not just any Pong, though; Variety reports that the famously minimalist Atari title is being spruced up with the addition of big ol’ stacks of money, in the form of Million Dollar Pong.
It’s not clear which network the show—produced by prolific reality TV creator Scott Sternberg—will land at. More importantly, though, we also have no idea what its take on Pong will look or feel like. Will it be as visually stimulating as watching a pair of ’70s teenagers twiddling their knobs and occasionally loudly swearing? Or will it embrace all the grandeur that the name Million Dollar Pong implies, and hot-glue a couple of diamonds onto the paddles, too? We’ll just have to wait and see how this one bounces out.

Time for a Gamestop Game break. Solve this Scrabble word from 1987.
Hint: She wasn't suited for her most famous role.
Think on it after a Google Play music interlude from Postmodern Jukebox's own Aubrey Logan and a spin on this classic.
Now we spin off to the answer:
As in Lady Godiva.....you know, the lady who rode naked through the streets before streaking was ever a thing in the seventies. She should've worn clothes next time.
And we have reached the End of Joeykat January.
HQ is fast becoming a phenomenon. Survivors answer questions to reach a cash prize. One incorrect answer.........and you are toast. Burnt toast. with butter. And hot tea. But there are ripoffs that are duplicated. Or are they ? Let's investigate!!!!

From Charleston, South Carolina, a city in which the Civil War first got started comes The Q. Also known as The Question, they give out free hints to help you get a free pass towards the money.....or elimination. And all of this takes place in a secret bunker. I wonder where it is........
But out of its way also comes Cash Show. Not only can you answer non-prize questions correctly, but you'll answer prize questions.....for pocket change. And there's a take 1 wrong away for a 50/50 chance at which is right. Which ripoff is next? We don't know.
