Yep, we can officially state that WDJT (CBS58) and WMLW (41) are the king and queen of comeback game shows. As I just now heard recently...

WDJT -- Millionaire: 4p; Feud @ 4:30p... Feud is back on 58!!

Now... let's hope for Temptation or Joker's Wild on 'MLW... maybe Tic Tac Dough!!

1. Source for WDJT information?

2. How does your hope for what WMLW might air qualify it as either the "king" or "queen" of returning game shows?

So WMLW aired a promo for three shows that haven't been picked up, one of which hasn't even been reported as a current project by any distributor?

(To everyone else: Yes, I know who posted it.  I'm trying to understand the mindset, optimist that I am.)

Hopefully he's been told his "Jayrockese" is getting extremely old, extremely fast.

I certainly hope he's getting the point.  I completely deleted a post of his earlier today because I just didn't have the patience to edit it into English.

He has been told exactly that.  He also has been told that several variants of "I like to be different" don't suffice as an excuse to keep doing it.

The optimist in me points out that since his first post, he's reduced the number of fonts to one from a Thaddixonese high of eight, the number of text colors from six to one, and the number of text styles from five to two.

The pessimist in me points out that he's still doing his "Jayrock sez" shtick.

The moderator in me has decided to follow Matt's example and just delete the next post that has any more of his, er, quirks.

Goodwin to the white courtesy phone...) Obstinance, stubbornness, laziness or whatever else, it's just silly. If your "being different" affects other people negatively, then you ought to join up with the majority, they must be doing something right.

I thought this was all common sense, I really did. Thanks a heap, AOL.
