Hoops legend Shaquille O'Neal joins "Jane the Virgin" actress Gina Rodriguez in hosting "Lucky 13," a new game show from Studio 1 (which includes part of the creative team behind the original WWTBAM) and executive producer Kevin Bacon, which will premiere on ABC this summer.

Contestants will answer 13 true-or-false questions with a twist -- per the report, it's how well they predict how many questions they got right that could lead them to win up to a million dollars.

IIRC, the format was announced a year or two ago with plans for Bacon to also host, but the show hadn't hit pilot stage at that point.

The idea is promising but geez, Shaq?

Easier to put it here, instead of creating new threads.

ABC's summer schedule will include ...

-- New seasons of Celebrity FF on Tuesdays (including the "50 Years of Feud" special); and PYL on Thursdays.
-- "Lucky 13" with Shaq and Gina will air after PYL on Thursdays.
-- In a bit of a surprise, WWTBAM returns on Wednesdays with pairs of celebrities competing to win up to $1M for charity. Yes, the show celebrates its 25th anniversary this summer but ... this is the best idea ABC could come up with?

No sign of The Chase (Victoria Groce mentioned in an interview promoting the J! Invitational several weeks ago that the show has "neither been canceled nor renewed") and, in a bit of a surprise, Pyramid.

Anyone else have to do the math on how we're approaching a half-century of Feud? :P

Finally that Feud special is airing. Nick and I were in the audience for that almost a year ago. It should be pretty good - every U.S. version of the show was represented in what we saw (even the Al Roker one). They also shot a second special that day that was nothing but Steve Harvey clips. Guess they're saving that one still?
