A game “almost no one can win.” Sounds like a sure-fire hit.

The odds o&f fluking into the top prize of $250,000 on Wingo were 1 in 2,200 and it lasted six episodes. Just throwing that out there.

I wouldn't read too much into that. I'm interpreting that as just some gimmicky jargon meant to make the show sound more dramatic.
"I just wanna give a shoutout to my homies in their late-30s who are watching this on Paramount+ right now, cause they couldn't stay up late enough to watch it live!"

Now celebrating his 21st season on GSF!

It hasn't happened quite yet, but Disney and 21st Century Fox (the parent company to the various Fox assets) have agreed to a deal in which Disney acquires the 20th Century Fox production studios, but the Murdochs keeps the Fox Broadcasting Company:
