Tonight's taping of Catch Phrase will either be its last one ever, or just won't happen at all. I was contemplating the possibility of being a contestant to this gameshow of rebuses. The call from the girl some weeks ago that they would run us through one load of taping, then give us something to fill in if we felt confident in the atmosphere of dimishing audiences. If they were to run through a normal taping, then perhaps they would only have a crowd, not potential contestants. In any event, that's one less show with which I could have felt comfortable being on.
The basic format is this: Two contestants, one cheesy grinning host. A board of dollar amounts where something flashes and lands on the amount, players then see a board with some kind of really thick animation. The animation would contain some picture—and possibly some text—that the contestants would have to guess the eventual meaning of. This goes for three rounds. You win any amount you notch up during the game and you automatically come back for the next night if you're the winner. Sweet deal. Yeah, does sound more like Pictionary.
Channel nine are in talks to give the man with the Joker's smile some new kind of quiz show. The Vault is still yet to air.
