FINAL REMINDER!!! My special debuts on GSN tomorrow!!!!

This whole discussion has been about Jason Block urging us to watch a special show in which he is featured, which promotes the upcoming new series "Catch 21," in which he will be a contestant. Second Chance has made repeated requests for someone to provide a video of the special "making of" show, which promotes the upcoming series, which I think is what you mean by "the show itself."Ritterskoop wrote:I did not mean the promo but the show itself.TheConfessor wrote:It's probably not legal, unless the copyright holder is the one who posted the material.

Second Chance - I could duplicate my DVD of the "Making of" show, but I won't be recording the actual game shows, as they conflict with other stuff that I record. I was hoping you'd get a response from someone who has a way to get you the whole shebang, but I haven't seen that yet. If you'd like a copy of the "Making of" DVD, PM me.

I withdraw my objection. The capital letters and exclamation points in the header put me on edge to begin with, and I read stuff wrong. I thought the point was to post the Catch 21 show, which is what I was questioning the legality of. I did not understand the complaint that there were no responses, when what I thought was being asked for is of questionable legality, and people are not going to want to say in public that they will do an illegal thing.TheConfessor wrote:This whole discussion has been about Jason Block urging us to watch a special show in which he is featured, which promotes the upcoming new series "Catch 21," in which he will be a contestant.

But I missed the boat on everything, and there it is.

Thanks so much - I really appreciate your offer. Let's see if it may indeed show up somewhere before you go to the trouble. Anyone I know who gets GSN doesn't live near me, and they either don't have recording devices and/or computers and/or don't know how to record/post/send it to me. phew.Estonut wrote:Second Chance - I could duplicate my DVD of the "Making of" show, but I won't be recording the actual game shows, as they conflict with other stuff that I record.

The thing is, I was supposed to be on the show. Set of circumstances prevented me from taping. Coordinator promised if show was picked up she'd recall me. I think it would be wise to study the game strategy on several shows before that may happen. I'll contact you in a few days to let you know either way.

Might the coordinator send you a tape if you asked, and paid postage?Second Chance wrote: The thing is, I was supposed to be on the show. Set of circumstances prevented me from taping.

Might be worth a shot.
I apologize for my earlier comments. I intended to illuminate one possible reason you weren't getting lots of replies (another is that it's the weekend and we have less traffic, usually), and it came off badly.

Good thought - but heavens no, I need our next correspondence to be instigated from her end, and about my appearance. She's off working on other projects and I doubt that she'd have access to that kind of production stuff anyway.Ritterskoop wrote: Might the coordinator send you a tape if you asked, and paid postage?

No worries! Didn't mean for my tease to come off as a complaint. Sorry if my squeaky wheel triggered a fender bender.Ritterskoop wrote: I apologize for my earlier comments.

Then I must despair.TheConfessor wrote:I thought it was a good behind-the-scenes look at what goes into making a game show. I recommend it especially to those who hope to be contestants on any game show. They don't sugar coat the facts. They are upfront about the fact that they're looking for big personalities with enthusiasm. That's probably true of most shows. Jason seems to fit that description pretty well. Those who think contestant selection should be based strictly on merit and who is best at playing the game just need to look at the audition process as an essential part of the game.
Once upon a time, there was one show that tried things differently. And that did pretty well...

Thankfully, I took care of that little anomaly. I'm still waiting for some kind of lifetime achievement Emmy for that.....
