Game Show Government

Completely apropos of the bizarre California recall election, the Game Show Network is hosting a game show debate between the lesser candidates for Governor.

The show will air Wednesday, October 1st at PM ET and PT. According to the Anchorage Daily News (itself an authoritative source for news on California politics), "Potential candidates include former child star Gary Coleman, prop comic Gallagher, porn star Mary Carey and Hollywood billboard queen Angelyne." It sounds like they are just guessing about the line up, so I'm not too disappointed not to see Don Novello's name on the list. I desperately want Father Guido Sarducci's take on this chaos.

I suppose the circus atmosphere is already too firmly entrenched to have this format add or detract from it much. It might even be informative, if the Game Show Network handles the debate in a Fair and Balanced way. Posted by hbo at August 15, 2003 10:53 AM
