Seriously? OMG! WTF?

As soon as Halloween was over, Mariah Carey declared it is Christmastime! Since she is the Queen of Christmas, radio stations started playing Christmas Carols.

While she is the Queen, one of the Princes disagrees with her. Josh Groban wrote, “It’s too early for Christmas music. Especially mine. Stop it.”

So are you Team Mariah or Team Groban when it comes to when we should start playing the music of this season? I am Grobs on this one. We will get enough of it between Thanksgiving and December 25th.

So there was a woman who went to see her gynecologist, and she saw something she was not expecting to see. When she looked up at the ceiling, there was a photo of Josh Groban.

I wonder what her doctor is thinking. Does he think that will make his patient more relaxed, or does he believe it will turn her on? For me, it is both. What does it do for you?

Oh, and when I go to my pussy doctor, I see the Grobes too. But it could be because my vet looks like the singer.

Michael Bublé and Josh Groban are the same age and genre. So, you would expect them to be rivals like Debbie Gibson and Tiffany, Katy Perry and Taylor Swift, Mariah Carey and J-Lo, Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj, Mariah Carey and fill in the blank.

Anyway, they are the opposite. At least that is the case for Bublé, who revealed what is included in his Ryder. The crooner wants a black towel, a local hockey puck, a simple bottle of water, and Josh Groban’s latest album.

Why the last item? Bublé said as he held Groban’s most current CD, “Oh [like an O] look at that face. Hot. Hot. Hot. Hot. Hot. Hot. And look at that beard.”

So there is no rivalry between the two men. However, there might be quite the opposite, and I am all for it.

So much so, they should go on tour together. Imagine that billing. Women, and Bublé, will be wet from coast to coast!

Have you ever said that something looks good enough to eat and wanted to take a bite of it. Well, on Eye Candy, a Roku Original that is streaming now, you can do just that.

Josh Groban hosts the Japanese import, where a cake is made to look like ordinary household items. The contestants have to guess if something is the real thing or an edible copy.

Each episode has two teams go up against each other. Both teams consist of an average person and a celebrity like Jamie Chung, Bryan Greenberg, Rachel Dratch, Nina Agdal, Michael Ian Black, Aparna Nancheria, Ana Gasteyer, Tiki Barber, Bridget Everett, Caroline Manzo, Melissa Gorga, Michelle Buteau, Jeremy Jordan, and Nico Tortorella.

The game show only has two rounds. The first one is the Conveyer Belt Challenge. That is when an item goes down the conveyer belt, and the contestants have to guess if they are going to take a bite of something sweet or something hard. It sounds easy, but the delectable carbon copies are so well done, it is hard to tell. And the only way to tell is to take a huge bite. The first team to get two right moves on to the next round.

For the second and last round called Sweet Suite, they go into a room like a ’90s bedroom, a casino, or a hardware store and have to guess which three items are not what they appear to be. For each item they guessed correctly, they get a cash prize. The first one gets them $1,000, the second gets them up to $2,500 and if they get a third, then they go home with $5,000 and a cavity.

Season one consists of ten 9-minute episodes. After binging the program, I think all game shows should be this long. That means they are a third the length of your average game show, so you never get bored. That is why you can burn through them in the time it takes to watch an awful movie.

Now, let’s talk about the gameplay. It sounds easy, but even I couldn’t tell what was fake. That is what makes it so much fun. You get to cringe with them as they find out if they are about to sink their teeth into a jockstrap, a cigar, a jukebox, a cactus, or a cake. Their faces say it all when they find out the object’s fate.

After we find out if the item is scrumptious, then we get to see a video of how they made the yummy imitation. It is really neat to see it take life before it meets its death.

Something I hope this show doesn’t meet because 10 episodes are not enough sweetness. Especially since Groban is hosting, he was born to do this job with his quick wit and warm personality.

While four out of five dentists will hate this show, four out of five patients will love it.

We know that Josh Groban looks good enough to eat, and now he is hosting a game show on Roku where contestants have to figure out if they are given something they can eat. Eye Candy is based on a Japanese game show.

Grobs said, “I first saw this show in Japan when it was called Sokkuri Sweets and was obsessed with how fun and silly it was. To be the ring master of such insanity is a dream. Bon Appetit.”

In each of the 10 episodes, celebrities like Jamie Chung, Bryan Greenberg, Rachel Dratch, Nina Agdal, Michael Ian Black, Aparna Nancheria, Ana Gasteyer, Tiki Barber, Bridget Everett, Caroline Manzo, Melissa Gorga, Michelle Buteau, Jeremy Jordan, and Nico Tortorella will be teamed up with brave laypeople. Together, they will have to answer if a cake made to look like an ordinary item is edible or inedible. The winner, I guess the best way to say it is, will take the cake.

Eye Candy will be streaming soon.
