 The whatstrending.com Opening Toss-Up story.   




The husband to the host of "The Talk" and Big Brother since 2000 is in big trouble.....literally.



New details have emerged about CBS Corporation president Leslie Moonves' alleged sexual misconduct, after six women spoke out against him in a New Yorker expose published Friday.
Reported by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ronan Farrow, the investigation details incidents of unwanted kissing and touching by Moonves, as well as intimidation, across multiple decades. An excerpt from the article reads:

"Six women who had professional dealings with him told me that, between the nineteen-eighties and the late aughts, Moonves sexually harassed them. Four described forcible touching or kissing during business meetings, in what they said appeared to be a practiced routine. Two told me that Moonves physically intimidated them or threatened to derail their careers. All said that he became cold or hostile after they rejected his advances, and that they believed their careers suffered as a result." 

Four women — Illeana Douglas, Janet Jones, Christine Peters and Dinah Kirgo — spoke on the record with Farrow. Moonves responded to their allegations with the following statement, in which he admits he "may have made some women uncomfortable" throughout his career, but "never misused [his] position" to stop any woman's career in its tracks:

"Throughout my time at CBS, we have promoted a culture of respect and opportunity for all employees, and have consistently found success elevating women to top executive positions across our company. I recognize that there were times decades ago when I may have made some women uncomfortable by making advances. Those were mistakes, and I regret them immensely. But I always understood and respected — and abided by the principle — that 'no' means 'no,' and I have never misused my position to harm or hinder anyone's career. This is a time when we all are appropriately focused on how we help improve our society, and we at CBS are committed to being part of the solution."
Big Brother host/The Talk panelist Julie Chen, who has been married to Moonves since 2004, issued a statement of her own on Friday, saying, "Leslie is a good man and a loving father, devoted husband and inspiring corporate leader… I fully support my husband and stand behind him and his statement."

Farrow's investigation into CBS and Moonves had been rumored for several months. Ahead of the article's publication, it was reported Friday morning that the expose would include allegations against Moonves, which prompted the Independent Directors of CBS' Board to issue the following statement:

All allegations of personal misconduct are to be taken seriously. The Independent Directors of CBS have committed to investigating claims that violate the Company's clear policies in that regard. Upon the conclusion of that investigation, which involved recently reported allegations that go back several decades, the Board will promptly review the findings and take appropriate action. 

Moonves, who also serves as CBS Corporation's CEO and Chairman of the Board, is not the first CBS staple to be accused of sexual harassment. In November 2017, journalist Charlie Rose was accused by multiple women of making inappropriate phone calls, exposing himself and groping them without their consent over a 20-year period. Both CBS and PBS quickly severed ties with him.


We'll give you posted when the developments are available. 




After this commercial word, an ultimate return. That's.....when Game Show Live! returns.

Here's a genius story:

SUSAN Carland has landed her own TV show.
The academic, who is married to The Project's Waleed Aly, was yesterday announced as the host of an SBS quiz show called Child Genius which will air later in the year.
"Presided over by quizmaster, Dr Susan Carland, this brand new six-part series to find Australia's brightest child in a unique competition documentary format, follows the lives of some of Australia's brightest children and their families," an SBS statement said. "These gifted children all have very high IQs and showcase phenomenal cognitive abilities in maths, general knowledge, memory and language.
"Presented in association with Australian Mensa, the series features participants and their families from all over Australia, and provides unique insight into the joys — and challenges — of parenting a gifted child."


Some more child news now:

Gold Medal Winning Olympic Gymnast Laurie Hernandez will co-host AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR Junior with Matt Iseman and Akbar Gbajabiamila on Universal Kids, NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment's network for kids 2-12.
This next generation of AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR marks the first time some of the show's biggest fans can become part of this five-time Emmy nominated worldwide phenomenon. AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR Junior will premiere on October 13 at 7:00pm.
American Ninja Warrior Junior celebrates real kids taking on the iconic course with dedication and skill. Nearly 200 boy and girl Junior Ninjas from across the U.S. will face off on the same Head to Head courses in three age brackets: 9 & 10, 11 & 12, and 13 & 14 year olds. The courses will feature iconic Ninja Warrior obstacles, including Sonic Swing, Tic Toc, Spin Cycle, and the Warped Wall. Each age bracket will be mentored by All Star Ninja Mentors - Kevin Bull, Drew Drechsel, Natalie Duran, Meagan Martin, Najee Richardson, and Barclay Stockett. Three final winners (one per age bracket) will be crowned the first ever AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR Junior Champions.
"At Universal Kids, we see kids as they see themselves and want to share their stories," said Deirdre Brennan, General Manager Universal Kids. "American Ninja Warrior Junior celebrates a kid-centric movement that everyone can be a part of and enjoy together. It will encourage and inspire all kids to push their limits and not shy away from challenges."
"Over the last number of years, we have received an outpouring of letters and videos asking when is there going to be a Ninja show for kids? Well, the time is now! People are going to be amazed at how talented and dedicated these young ninjas are," said Arthur Smith, CEO of A. Smith & Co. Productions and Executive Producer of the 'American Ninja Warrior' franchise. "They're remarkable, and to know that they've been inspired by our show is immensely gratifying." 


Staying with the topic:


Dancing With the Stars has found its judges for this fall's Juniors edition — and they're no strangers to the ABC ballroom.
Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon, Emmy-winning choreographer Mandy Moore and longtime DWTS pro Val Chmerkovskiy will be sitting at the judges' dais this October. The announcement was made on Monday's Good Morning America broadcast.
Rippon, who won a bronze medal at the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, is also the reigning DWTS champ after he and pro Jenna Johnson triumphed in last May's abbreviated all-athletes edition.
Moore, who famously choreographed the Oscar-winning 2016 film La La Land, has also produced dozens of routines for both DWTS and So You Think You Can Dance. She has multiple Emmy nominations under her belt and, in 2017, snagged the Outstanding Choreography trophy for a pair of DWTS Season 23 numbers.

Chmerkovskiy, of course, has served as a professional partner on 13 seasons of DWTS. He has won the Mirrorball trophy twice thus far: in Season 20 with actress Rumer Willis, and in Season 23 with Olympic gymnast Laurie Hernandez.
Contestants for Dancing With the Stars: Juniors have yet to be announced. The series debuts with a two-hour premiere on Sunday, Oct. 7, at 8/7c on ABC.



Usually you have to wait until winter to find out whether or not you've been good enough to deserve holiday presents. This year, however, we found out early, and apparently, we've been really good. Today, Netflix announced that Nailed It! will return for a seven-episode special this December. We're not sure what we did to deserve so much of this hilarious baking competition show full of seriously epic fails in a single year, but we'll gladly accept the gift.
According to Netflix's announcement, Nailed It! Holiday is similar to the past two seasons of Nailed It! except for one key difference. This time around, all the challenges will be a holiday-themed. Last season, Nailed It! gave us a taste of that with one holiday baking episode — remember the one with the ginger bread houses and the revelation that French people dip their shortbread cookies in red wine? — but in this special, there will be even more of those festive tests.



Now we go on to.....since we're in August.....





http://www.qwizx.com/gssfx/usa/blockbredring.wav

Buzz-GSN where we ask you guys on the GSN facebook page everything and anything.

And we start with Casey Abell of Game Show Follies making his facebook appearance with this:


"According to the GSN online schedule, America Says gets another rerun slot at 5:30 PM starting August 6. The show has performed well, so it's no surprise that it now gets three runs (one new, two rerun) each weekday. And the legion of Harvey-haters on this site can rejoice. The despised Steve has now lost three half-hour slots on weekdays. Why, that should make your (week)day."


That'll give GSN some room. On to bernadatte Bevan.

"I like game shows. I have many times asked for a little variety in the shows especially Family Feud. I’m tired of Steve Harvey and Richard Dawson. Let me ask you this did Steve Harvey buy the network. I like Richard Dawson, I’m just a little tired of kissy, kissy, I also like Steve Harvey , however he thinks the show is a comedy and he has to check The cameras a doz. times to see if the suit fits. I know I have asked for Richard Karn and John O’Hurley. Richard Karn was on about one day. My husband and I were so happy. 
How about that, bring them back. Why not!"



I think they should. We go to Mary Ann Witttoske.

"Who makes the programing choices on GSN? Bring Back Match Game on 7 am. to 8 am, Caroline and Friends is too stupid! It's a lame "America's Funniest Video" (Another stupid show in my opinion) knock off. Give us Match Game in the morning!!!!!"


I think it was the exces who done did it. Now we go to Kay Bagett.

"Wanna make a huge complaint!!! I like to watch Match Game when I am getting ready for work in the mornings. Came on 8:00 AM and again at 8:30 AM. I turn to GSN yesterday morning and this morning at 8:00 AM and Caroline & Friends is on!!!! Carolina & Friends may be fine but I WANT my Match Game at 8:00 and 8:30 AM. Do you plan to keep this schedule or is this just a short term thing??????"


I think it's short term. If it's permanent, then I'm switching over to the Today show. Keeping things rolling is Jim Weeks.

"Caroline and Friends?! Are you kidding?! Talk about Me-too TV! Gee, same videos we have all seen ten times on other shows, with annoying laughter. Bring back Match Game for that half hour. And....Show the newer version of card sharks, not the lame original version."


And to keep things going, Mary Foster.

"Caroline and Friends: Shows like this encourage people to do cruel things to their pets so they can catch it on video. Saw the episode today where the dog jumps off of the boat into the water with the dolphins. Not funny. What happened to the dog later? How were they able to go back to such a small dog and control the boat getting to him without hitting him with the boat or the blades? Did they finally drag an exhausted dog up into the boat by his collar? Didn't they have the suspicion that the dog would jump? Sure they did. Nothing but bad things can happen when a dog jumps from a motorized boat going at such a speed into open water with other marine life."


AFV was funny IMO and still is. Let's go now to Jennifer Linebach Lakin.

"Very disappointed that you replaced one of my morning Match Game episodes with that dumb home video show. Really ruins my morning ‘70s vibe."

In fact, we were disappointed when we woke up. What about Scott Guy?

"I am posting this because I don't know where else I can honestly. How dare you replace Match Game with that new "game" show Caroline & Friends!! First of all, Match Game is a CLASSIC!! It is what a GAME SHOW is all about! Whoever came up with that thing you call a "game show" has no idea what a game show really is! Put the whole hour of Match Game back on IMMEDIATELY!!"

Agreed. Lastly, Jennifer Michael.


"Can y'all quit showing Family Feud all day every day? I love the show, but y'all have worn it out. There are other game shows. Those seem to come on after midnight though when I can't watch. But I do get see Family Feud anytime from 6am to 12 midnight. ðŸ™„ Get it together. Get a new programmer. This use to be a favorite channel. Not anyone. Get it together people!"

I think GSN should Get it together. Don't you agree?


Time for a Gamestop Game Break. Here's a Quizzo screengrab and look at this question with 3 possible answers. Only one of which is correct. 




We'll give you time to think after this Google Play music Interlude from Alyse Black. She's here every August but I heard a rumor.....




That's she's having another child. I checked her page and it's darn true. In the meantime, let's have her croon something.





Byron Allen, acquire this if you will.  Now we go to the answer. 





At the time, some of the Beatles defended the use of the butcher photograph. Lennon said that it was "as relevant as Vietnam" and McCartney said that their critics were "soft".[19] However, this opinion was not shared by all band members. George Harrison said in The Beatles Anthology that he thought the whole idea "was gross, and I also thought it was stupid. Sometimes we all did stupid things thinking it was cool and hip when it was naïve and dumb; and that was one of them."[27] In 2007 George Martin, the Beatles' producer, recalled that the cover had been the cause of his first strong disagreement with the band. He added: "I thought it was disgusting and in poor taste … It suggested that they were madmen. Which they were, but not in that way."

Followed by the Angry Video Game Nerd.......

Finally, please look at this review for what Game Show Garbage did for Bullseye.




But sometimes, you need a second opinon. Here's my opinion.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kjFXZIOO2s

When Bullseye replaced Play the Percentages in 1980, the viewpoint from the ideal standard looked pretty good, but the phase of it was in the same vein as many Barry & Enright programs. Contracts in this game slowed the game down a ton, but viewers kept track as to how many questions the contract was left of. The Bullseye feature in the main game was a contract from 1-forever it takes a whole week to run the table until somebody went over $1000 and later $2000. This later became the Fast Forward category. I hate it when people blow chunks on subjects that aren't suited for them, then have easier stuff to keep the game faster. Leaving one to bank money and letting someone else run the gaunlet to end it is useless. And don't get me started on Celebrity Bullseye. It slowed the game down and jumped the shark from here on out. As far as the bonus round went, it had the same theory of B&E bonus games. If the theory had a villain, then the lightning bolt is just a symbol. I think Bullseye is a cult favorite among game show fanatics despite its short shelf life and having a celebrity edition that ended it all.
