Now, America's favorite contestant, Pierre Kelly!
Me: Thank you Madi, and yes, i'm off the Super Bowl hangover wagon beacause Game Show Live! is on the air. This is where we Get lit and get involved. Ever since last year, our Love Connection dating wranglers have been here and there on the scene doing song explanations. I've texted these guys in my office telling them "When will you ever get a color change of clothes?" But anyways, they've wore red since they first met in Los Angeles, and since then they've made music over the years and now they're making friends with other Youtubers. All month long, RKVC is taking over....but not over. They're here with an important PSA for you.
Thanks guys, now we must get into it with....
The Double Toasted opening toss up story.
We have a Game Show Live! follow along on the AGT scandal.
A week after contradicting former America's Got Talent judge Gabrielle Union's claims of racism on the show, Terry Crews is offering Union an apology.
In a series of tweets on Friday, Crews — who hosts the NBC reality competition — said, "I want to apologize for the comments I made," adding that "I realize there are a lot of black women hurt and let down by what I said and also by what I didn't say… I hear you, I respect you and understand you. I am sorry and I am here to support you. I spoke from my own personal point of view without first taking into consideration someone else's experience."
Crews went on to say that "disrespectful comments directed at me and my family" led him to "react angrily instead of responding thoughtfully. This certainly caused more harm, and it is my hope that I can amend any pain I have caused to those who were hurt by my words."
Addressing Union directly, he said, "I want you to know it was never my intention to invalidate your experience — but that is what I did. I apologize. You have been through a lot in this business, and with that I empathize with the struggle toward fairness and equality in the workplace."
The rift stems from reports of racial discrimination Union experienced while shooting America's Got Talent, including critiques that her hairstyle was "too black" and a contestant whose material she found racially insensitive. (It was announced in November that Union and fellow judge Julianne Hough would not return next season.)
Crews defended the show in an interview last week, addressing "the racism comments" and adding, "That was never my experience on America's Got Talent." Union fired back on Twitter, asserting that telling the truth "really exposes those who enthusiastically will throw you under the bus."

Who won the NTA awards? Plus, how a student got suspended for doing a drum cover to some adult website we can't say on the show. It's a PG-13 thing. Anyways, while you watch this word, i'm gonna go to the bathroom and provide my inner thoughts about the career of Cindy Margolis. Hang tight.
(fade to break)
A lot of symphathy flowers from 1800flowers.com. When you lose someone in the family, 1800flowers.com is all you need to mourn your friends and family at gravesites before the gravediggers cover it up. Once again, a caretaker/undertaker/Give-N-Taker......Pierre Kelly!
Me: And I take the mic back from Madison Brunoehler because our blog hath returned. Big news for REW Networks. First of all, the day after the Super Bowl, they did something.......................real cool.
But that's not all. They unleashed a new character for the Plus channel.
As if that wasn't enough, we got a pilot for a new show called "Margaux & Co." Roll it!
Yes, REW will not stop. It will become a channel where only mimes......talk. And that's a good thing.

Some Chase news. Down Under, this happened......
Filming was due to commence The Chase in Melbourne this week; however, sources have now indicated to the Herald-Sun filming would be "delayed again – this time by months."
This latest production break becomes the third time O'Keefe has requested time away from the top rating quiz in the last 12 months.
In April of last year, O'Keefe took an eight-week break after suffering an 'emotional collapse' at the same time as his marriage ended.
Filming of The Chase then wrapped three weeks earlier than expected at the end of 2019 after the host requested a break so he could concentrate on his Johnny O'Keefe stage tour.
In a statement provided to the Herald-Sun yesterday, a spokesperson for Seven stated:
- "Production on The Chase is to be held over for a couple of months,".
- "Andrew O'Keefe is taking time to manage and recover from a health issue.
- "The Chase continues 5pm weekdays on Seven unaffected by this delay."
- "Production on The Chase is to be held over for a couple of months,".
- "Andrew O'Keefe is taking time to manage and recover from a health issue.
- "The Chase continues 5pm weekdays on Seven unaffected by this delay."
With the commencement of the 2020 ratings season, Seven has recommenced airing new episodes of The Chase from today, however, repeat episodes will now be broadcast on Thursday's and Fridays..
Meanwhile in Espana..........
ITV Studios has confirmed that long-running quiz show The Chase, has been commissioned by TVE-owned LA1 in Spain, becoming the 14th territory to order the show. The show will be produced by Mediacrest.
It is also to return in Israel on KAN 11, where last year it won the award for Best Game Show at the Israeli Television Awards for the second year in a row. KAN has commissioned two further series.
The Chase turned 10 last year having first appeared on UK screens – where it is produced by ITV Studios label Potato – in 2009. During that time, it has regularly won its slot and grown its audience share, making it one of ITV's most successful daytime shows, with more than 1500 episodes.
Since then it has gone on to be commissioned in territories including Australia, Denmark, Germany and Russia, with six of the 14 international versions produced locally by ITV Studios.
Maarten Meijs, President, Global Entertainment at ITV Studios, said: "The Chase continues to entertain viewers across the world and these new and returning commissions are proof of its ongoing appeal to international buyers. It is one of a number of global returning formats in the ITV Studios catalogue, such as The Voice, Love Island and Come Dine With Me that go from strength to strength and continue to attract new audiences."

If you're looking for a new feel-good, family-friendly reality show to get into, look no further than Lego Masters. The new Fox competition show pits teams of imaginative Lego builders against each other to see which brick-slingers are the best at what they do.
Chances are you saw a spot for the new show during the Super Bowl and you're incredibly curious about how a whole competition show can be built around Lego. You won't have to remain curious for much longer, as the show's premiere is fast approaching! Also, Lego built an entire movie franchise around itself, so a TV competition show doesn't seem like such a stretch!
Lego Masters premieres Wednesday on Fox.

And now, the most sensational segment that shocked the whole wide world.......................................
Buzz-GSN where we ask you guys on the GSN facebook page anything and everything. Chris Paeska will begin with.....
"Watching ‘America Says’ on Game Show Network and a guy was searching for the words to say ‘beer’ and said ‘beach soda’ instead...he wasn’t entirely wrong so now I may have to use this term."
it's like Sparkling water getting mistaken for Coke. Next up, Jerry Scott.
"Why do you continue to show repeats over and over again? I’ve seen that Indiana champion pig caller on Family Feud numerous times. Just wondering...."
Because GSN is GSN. Do you wanna go to Buzzr right now? Next, Chase McAllister.
"What's happened to the closed captioning feature? We have Dish and there is no closed captioning on our favorite quiz games."
No idea unless you watch at a bar with loud msuic blaring somewhere. Coming up next, Michael Ewing.
"The clue giving in Get a Clue was flawed. The flow would have been contestant 1- contestant 2- contestant 3- contestant 4 and then Contestant 4- contestant 3- contestant 2- contestant 1 and it would have been nice if the captain of the team picks the category and each category should've been 6 words instead of 5 and in the final round, the team who is trailing goes first. That is what I would have done to Get a Clue!"
So basically, it'll look like what Hot Streak used to be in 1986. Up next, Cindi Ann Bruder.
"It suck! They beeped a girl because she said hand on handkerchief. But on another show a girl said blank and blank for half and half using the word and... and they don’t beep her. Wish game shows go by the rules!!!"
Hmmm, maybe the network tries to keep it family friendly, perhaps? Don Connors will be next.
"I finally realized what my problem is with the new Catch 21's bonus round. There's no musical underscore. I know it's an odd, insignificant thing to notice but the lack of an underscore makes the bonus round feel lifeless, especially when every other current GSN original has an underscore in their bonus round"
The original incarnation of Catch 21 did have an underscore in the bonus round. So the original gets the advantage. Ginny Peluso will go ahead now.
"I love Whitney. She's a sweetheart ,beautiful and a fabulous dancer.
But honestly she just doesn't cut it on Catch 21.
She lacks entusiasm and pizzazz. We loved Mickie Padilla."
But honestly she just doesn't cut it on Catch 21.
She lacks entusiasm and pizzazz. We loved Mickie Padilla."
Yep. Another reason why the original version gets the advantage. Last up, Bob Barnes.
"Why is the first Match Game at 1PM being pre-empted for Deal or No Deal on Mondays? This started late last year. It happened two weeks in a row, I believe, then it stopped. It has started again. Last week, on Monday and Tuesday, Match Game wasn’t on at 1PM. This episode is the only one I can watch, due to my schedule, and I have to watch some other show in that time slot. Why can’t you either move Deal or No Deal to 11:30 AM on the days you’re going to have Deal on for 1-1/2 hours, or stop messing with the schedule, and have Deal on for just an hour every day?"
The reason: They were some 90-minute episodes in NBC's original run, so you get an idea of how the episodes on NBC sometimes went beyond an hour.

Now, a Mistplay game break. Look at this Wheel puzzle from 1984 and then tell us the solution.
But before you can tell us, you've got a Pandora song break from RKVC to get to. Guys?
And what the heck were you waiting on? The answer? oh yeah, you got it. Here it is.
gee, that was quick.

Closing theme
That's it for this week. Today's consolation prize is a handheld security detector. If COsmo from the Astros, KC Wolf from the Super bowl champion Chiefs, Stuff the Magic Dragon from the Orlando Magic, or any other mascot tries to check and see if anything violent happens, use it and remind them not to get into a fight like Minnie Mouse ever again.
Don't forget to email me at kellypierre8@gmail.com, coppockonsports@yahoo.com, Pierre Jason Kelly on FB and @Johnny_Arcade on twitter. Also I'm on Snapchat as MisterGSN and Instagram as Mister_WCW. We will return next Wednesday, and until we return, Play on playas.
Madison: Game Show Live! is a presenation of Jackbox Media Services, Spy Fox Entertainment and Pluto TV Networks which may or may not be responsible for the mess we made. I'm not joking. Really.
