Premiering June 22nd. Exec Produced by Will Arnett, who was filling in for Jimmy Kimmel last week when he brought on the host. Tommy Maitland.

There are a few mannerisms you might recognize:



HINT: Tommy Maitland is not a real person--that's a guy in makeup.

Can't hardly wait. As really Chuck Barris made that show. As too bad he passed away. Loved Chuckie Baby!

I figured it out as soon as he laughed. Up until then, i didn't know. So he is going to host the show or was this all a gag? Assuming so.

No, he is actually going to host this show. As this character.

Interesting and different but feels like a stunt to do a show. Will check it out for sheer curiosity.

The Gong Show was a great show and I enjoyed watching it. Chuck Barris was the Gong Show. No need to puke out another rendition of yet another game show. Doesnt the entertainment industry have an original thought? Just puke out remakes of EVERYTHING!:bang::barf:

Two more of our friends, Mark and VonJon (aka Something Ridiculous), are on the show also. They are the guys on unicycles tossing basketballs and dunking in the preview.

Can't wait to check it out.

Cooper. Top seven pick. Played what? 20 plays?

And it wasn't even a femur. It was a fibula. Lot's smaller. Donovan McNabb broke his fibula during a game, kept playing, and kicked our ass 28-3.
