Foul Play
Jimmy Owen:
This can be salvaged. Combine two shows to create "Foul Lingo," where two teams compete to spell four-letter words.

From the sound of it, I should be glad, too.[/quote]
I fell asleep before the repeat came on, so I missed it.
But somehow I have the feeling that this has no future--that the pilot was just aired to amortize it. This used to happen a lot more frequently on cable back in the 80s and 90s than nowadays (like the 1988 pilot of "Kingpins," Nick at Nite's first and to-date only attempt at a game show).
Of course, I could be wrong--but if the shows used as sources for the stunts aren't being renewed...

Yeah it sucked eggs. Changed channel after 15 minutes, got sick of hearing the Lingo theme(even though it's cool, it annoyed me).

And it bumped an episode of MGPM with Joe Garagiola on the panel, which seems to have been skipped over completely. as it didn't air on Tuesday evening.
