The other day on Wheel of Fortune, Pat Sajak made a mistake. When he saw the only letters that were turned around for the clue in the bonus round, he said to the contestant, “Yikes! I’d rather be standing here than there. Quite frankly.”
Why is that so bad? Because “quite frankly” was the answer. Thankfully for him, no one but Vanna White caught that. Thankfully for us, she pointed that out after the show ended.
Hey Sajak, that is karma for pointing out that she couldn’t find a letter the other day.
All of these screw-ups make me want to watch the game show every night to see how else they mess up. Let’s make it a drinking game! Every time someone buys a vowel, take a sip. Whenever Sajak or White make a mistake, down whatever is in the glass. Let’s just hope they don’t do it too early in the game because that spinning wheel might have us running to the bathroom and praying to the porcelain Gd.
Back in 1999, Shania Twain shot the music video for her song, Man I Feel Like a Woman. The singer was dressed in a white button-down shirt over a black corset and short black shorts in it.
It has been 22 years since she wore that outfit, and guess what? It still fits! Man, that will make any woman feel like a woman.
Back in 1981, Sharon Gless and Tyne Daly started fighting crime together as Cagney & Lacey. Now, 40 years later, they are celebrating the first night of Passover together.
“My partner-in-crime and I,” Gless wrote. “Celebrating Seder after being badly burned by the Florida sun. We have traded our guns for masks. I love Tyne Daly. We still crack one another up.”
If I were a network head, I would bring the crime drama back as a comedy with the two of them busting the neighbors in their retirement community. Those over 55ers can be really dangerous!
Back in 1992, MTV launched a little reality show called The Real World. For three months, everyone was captivated by the roommates’ lives. Therefore, you would think when the show ended; the cast would have no problem getting jobs. It was quite the opposite for everyone who wasn’t named Eric Nies.
Yesterday, the seven houseguests were on Shade 45, and he wanted to know what their lives were like after the show ended. Julie Gentry told him she was trying to make it as a dancer in NYC. However, she kept getting rejected from jobs because she Julie from The Real World. Since she needed to pay the rent, she took a job as a temp for MTV and Viacom to pay the bills. She says it was better than working as a waitress and having people recognize there.
Even though she had a rough time after the show, it all turned out OK for her. As we learned last week on The Real World Homecoming: New York, she is happily married with children.
