J. Keith, in an incredible feat of modesty, neglected to mention that the WML show has been extended until November! Good work all!

Show sounds faithful and fun from all accounts...thus what's the hold up of pitching it to TV suitors?  I mean there is inevitably a market for WML in my eyes, be it cable as opposed to broadcast TV.

Betty White and perhaps Allen Ludden if the cryogenics thaws in time?

That's seven down and three to go -- I'll give you another minute until the Mystery Guest is totally thawed -- Mr. Cerf?

Fremantle doesn't own the rights either, pumpkin.

Otherwise, his performance would be awfully stiff. <ducking>

Close on the cryogenics thing. Turned out it was Monty Hall and Carol Merrill.

According to Mark Evanier, who was at the show, it was a big thrill for J. Keith and the audience was especially appreciative. Panelist Gary Anthony Williams ("Blue Collar TV" and "Undercover Brother"'s Smart Brother) got 'em.

Here's an idea...

Why not take a page out of TPIR Live and have the panel and host greet the fans after the show (sign autographs, pose for pictures). Chances are not all audience members would stop to say hello and it wouldn't take long even if the place was full.

Unless they need to get out of there for another upcoming show.

Just a thought.
