ACTV8me Will Extend Its Proven Interactive and Data-Driven Capabilities Across Season 2 of Jay Leno's "You Bet Your Life" and Mattel's Party Game "Pictionary" Hosted by Jerry O'Connell


LOS ANGELES, Aug. 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- FOX First Run announced today that it is broadening its partnership with media technology provider ACTV8me, to create a unified interactive experience across its all-star lineup "You Bet Your Life" and "Pictionary."



The leading mobile ad-tech company will leverage its Sequential QR Code™ (SQR Code™) solution in all 180 new episodes of "You Bet Your Life" and 175 original episodes of "Pictionary," producing a measurable way for sponsors to connect with the audience, while surprising and delighting viewers in real-time at home.


Across America's favorite game shows, ACTV8me will display its SQR Code™ to empower marketers to sequentially or randomly serve unique offers, messaging, and enhanced content in a brand-safe environment, all of which can be saved into the native wallet (Apple Pay or Google Pay). This proven solution allows sponsors to effectively measure lead generation and conversions. The SQR Code™ will also power an at-home segment, prompting viewers to play along with an audience question, to win sponsored grand prizes, delivering fun to the whole family.


"After a successful collaboration on Season 1 of 'You Bet Your Life', we are proud of our partnership with ACTV8me in scaling  across multiple series, as we continue to accelerate the reach of these syndicated shows by infusing interactive elements that improve our audience experience," said Stephen Brown, EVP of Programming and Development, FOX First Run.


"We are excited to serve more viewers, and optimize cross-screen experiences for premier sponsors and prizing partners," added David Schreff, CEO of ACTV8me. "As we further expand into 'Pictionary' with Jerry O'Connell, we are jointly ushering in a new way for consumers to engage with the iconic board game as it comes to life on the television screen."

Lifting the Wizardly Curse


HBO Max‘s original cooking show Selena + Chef is gearing up for its fourth season as the streamer unveiled a new trailer and premiere date for the series.

Season 4 will officially kick off on Thursday, August 18 with three all-new episodes followed by three more episodes on August 25 and an additional final four on September 1. Heading to the beach with her friends and family, Selena Gomez is ready for summer fun full of cooking.


Set at the actress and singer’s Malibu home, she’s taking on new challenges and continuing to learn the joys of cooking with the help of all-star chefs. As the show did in its first three seasons, each chef will highlight a different charity.

And since the series premiere, Selena + Chef has raised a total of $400,000 for 26 nonprofit organizations, and Season 4 will continue to raise the bar. Along with unveiling the trailer, HBO Max also released key art featuring Gomez with the tagline “a taste of summertime,” hinting at the season’s theme.


Podcast Aisle 6

Leslie Jones is about to spice up your earbuds with her first podcast — a talk show promising an abundance of F-bombs that the “Saturday Night Live” alum is cohosting with fellow comedian Lenny Marcus.

“The Fckry” (pronounced just the way you think) is being produced by Earwolf, the comedy podcast network of SiriusXM’s Stitcher. On the weekly podcast, Jones and Marcus will discuss a range of goings-on, from how they started out in the comedy biz to topical political issues. The hosts will also interact with listeners, pledging “unfiltered, unwatered-down answers” with nothing off the table.

“The Fckry,” set to premiere Aug. 11, will be available across all major audio platforms, including Stitcher, the SXM App, Apple Podcasts and Spotify. SXM Media, Sirius XM’s advertising sales group, has exclusive global ad sales rights for the show.

Jones, in a statement provided to Variety, said, “I have a lot of things to say. I could have shared them on a daytime talk show where I’d have to censor myself. But in a podcast, I can say what I want. On ‘The Fckry,’ you’re getting the uncut, 100% pure Leslie Jones. If you’ve ever wanted to hang with me and talk, here’s your chance.”

Marcus added, “Leslie and I talk on the phone all the time, and most of our conversations are us complaining about our lives or the crazy world we live in. It usually just devolves into us cracking each other up. And now you, the listener, get to hear that!”




But we've dropped a big fireworks display once we annouce who the person is. The person has to be of all things.........

 Someone who can stream for more than one year of his or her own time, can be of some certain variety or within the realm outside of video games (i.e. Artwork, Music), viewership numbers on averages and the category most important: Play Jackbox games if necesssary. Please help me introduce you all to.................




This month's recipent: HerNameIsMelula. We've been talking about her doing Melly Addicts which was once a biweekly thing turned once a month nowadays, but we haven't actually known more of her. Her jam is television and that's all I gotta say. Except.......she's that person you'd get to know a lot when she does video games. She has a weekly Virtual Lunch Club where we all sit down and see classsic TV whereas around here it's in the mornings while you chow down on Mcgriddles and Mccafe coffee from Mcdonalds. There's even a puzzle the chat can play along with while you wait. So much fun. If at any point you trigger a hype bus, it's this....................



But it'll be a mroe drum & bass remix to interrupt the stream while the hype bus goes on the whole time before the clock hits zero. She's the purveyor of British humor and has been known to do moments like these.............









But she's known for this song heard on the internet................




But she also does community games like ChefSquad and What The Dub? all on Thursdays. So get to this link and tune in:


She also does The Big of Enternal Stench at certain milestones. So HerNameIsMelula, you didn't win Eurovision, the FA Cup, The Premier League championship or the Strictly Come Dancing mirrorball trophy but you.......yes you........................

Re-NOUN-ed


Fox Television Stations (FTS) will debut a four-week preview of Person, Place, or Thing with Melissa Peterman on Aug. 8 on select Fox-owned stations in markets including New York and Los Angeles.

Stephen brown, executive vice president of programming and development, said: “This is the perfect summer game: light, fun, and breezy, like an Aperol Spritz. Melissa is the host of this summer party- it’s her house, her game and you’ll leave having had the best time ever.”

Person, Place, or Thing is a game where players ask “yes” or “no” questions to guess an answer correctly. Created by Jeff Proctor and Paul Franklin, this game show intersperses comedy with common knowledge. Jeff Proctor, Paul Franklin, Melissa Peterman and Tracy Verna will serve as executive producers.

Twenty episodes will be distributed by Fox First Run.

Peterman said: “I think game shows are a lot of people’s happy place. I know they’re mine. Person, Place, or Thing is uncomplicated fun that the whole family can enjoy, especially since you’ll always be the best player from home.”


They say Guile's theme goes with everything. Especially LadyDesiree who can actually do it. Watch.
