Foul Play

<< < (3/3)

ezbidder:
Is Foul Play a one shot deal or is it going to be a regular series? I noticed a few more scheduled airings on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th.   I assume these are replays of the first showing.

TV Favorites:
The currently scheduled reruns are reruns of the episode previously shown.  I believe at this time, Foul Play was a one shot deal.

Get used to it, guys. It seems they are going to have garbage like this on their schedule quite a bit when they get their new name. Did you see the Games Across America skits? They had stuff like rock/paper/scissors championship and a beard contest. What's next: a mashed potato sculpture contest? Foul Play was beyond bad. It was a very poor ripoff of Candid Camera and The Jamie Kennedy Experiment. I know they said they are going to have studio game shows in daytime. Worst case scenario is that shows like this will begin to slowly erode away at the traditional game shows. Best case scenario is that shows like this will go the way of Naturally Stoned and get bad ratings, causing them to bring back all studio games. Time will tell.

 Just as a general rule, any hidden camera show that is NOT Candid Camera and not hosted by Allen Funt is a poor ripoff thereof. (That includes the pile of crap his son did, BTW.)

 At least the recent Candid Camera revival bought Fannie Flagg back and even re-created a couple of skits she was a part of on the 70s syndicated version with Funt.
