Downfall is a game show where contestants and prizes are dropped off the top of a building in LA. In this clip, a wife tries to keep her husband on the roof by remembering television theme songs.

Fergie Oliver, co-host of hit 80s Canadian game show, Just Like Mom, seems to have a special place in his heart for the little girls onstage, distracting his young contestants with Humbert Humbert hubba-hubbas.

Just pretend dead, though! Also today: a new, violent-sounding movie starring two non-violent-looking actresses, a great new game show, a movie about legal hookers, and something about the House.

Somehow the Japanese can still get away with publicly donning "black face." This hilarious clip shows what Americans look like to the Japanese. And yes, that's a fat version of Stevie Wonder.

America's Next Top Model is no longer about modeling. It is about shaming aspiring models with ridiculous physical challenges. Last night: Walk down a runway with giant swinging pendulums. It's exactly like Japan's MXC, only funnier. Mashup proof inside.

NBC's newest game show Minute to Win It may not be the worst show on NBC, but that's only because we're reserving that title for The Marriage Ref. This show is right behind it.

Canadian game show host Alex Trebek will host a Republican fundraiser in Malibu tonight. (Pat Sajak: also a Republican.) Related: Conservapedia blames socialism and gay marriage for Canada's failed Olympics.

Hey look at this silly news. Some of the Real Housewives are going on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. That ought to be ridiculous. Especially when New York's crazy-eyed Ramona Singer makes her appearance.

Last night, Jeopardy! welcomed Pat Sajak, Elizabeth Perkins and Doug Savant to play in its Million Dollar Celebrity Invitational. Sajak shrewdly dominated the game, and with good reason: when he decided to be momentarily altruistic, the competition failed miserably.

Japan continues its cultural dominance over the entirety of American broadcasting with a game show in which animals navigate through a racecourse of dominoes while humans look on and cheer nervously.

Most troubling line from the New York Times' article about child-prodigy gameshow Our Little Genius: "...it is the parents of the contestant who decide whether to advance to the next question or to stick with the money they have already won."

Japanese pranks are great for their over-the-top elaborateness, attention to detail, and cruelty. Today, we have eight of our favorite practical (and not-so-practical) jokes, straight from the Land of the Rising Sun. Tanoshimasu!

When we brought you this video of a news anchor fainting on-air, we didn't realize what a pandemic passing out on live television actually is!

We don't pretend to understand what's going on when it comes to Japanese Game shows. This clip of a girl dressed as a Polar Bear at the Zoo getting frightened by a real one is just too good.

Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay will appear on any low-rent TV show that will take him. On Dancing With The Stars he was at least given the dignity of competing as one of the "stars," but not on Millionaire.

If you've watched Wolf Blitzer struggle to ask relevant questions of interviewees or just fill up time with cliches and nonsense you might've gotten the impression that he is not very bright. He did Celebrity Jeopardy to prove you wrong!

This story about the idiot who guessed wrong on the final question on last Sunday's Millionaire annoyed us. Because: a) "24-year-old LA lawyer," b) we knew the goddamn answer and c) we were too dumb to make it on Millionaire.

Can't a network game show gather muscular, waxed contestants together anymore without one of them having a notorious gay porn past? Hot on the heels of the American Gladiator who was revealed to be more familiar with the joust than originally thought, Fox's bizarre new game show Hole in the Wall premiered on Sunday with a face that should be familiar to customers of the gay porn website Sean Cody. Dubbed "Ajay" during his stint in the skin trade, Hole introduced him as Aaron Savvy, member of the Six Pack team. Then, after being asked, "Are you ready to face the hole?" Savvy and his personal trainer teammate had to navigate advancing walls with perilous shapes cut in them, forcing the duo to assume positions not put into use since "Ajay & Spence Flip-Flop." Does Savvy make it into the holes intact? Let's just say he has better luck at his day job. [After Elton]

Greg Lindsay comes across as an uptight guy. But that doesn't stop him from appearing on television again and again. Indeed, he's the poster boy for go-getters who try on every form of media until they find one that fits best. The former WWD gossip columnist and author of a book about sleeping in airports landed a "memorable" appearance on Martha Stewart's TV show earlier this year. And last night, he was a contestant on Jeopardy! The secret to his publicity, he advised a youngster long ago, is to remember "it's all about the brand called you." And how! Click to watch the clip of Lindsay's, um, uphill battle. And we'll let former Deadspinner Will Leitch finish the story of watching the show with Greg himself:

There was a time when the aesthetic of the Japanese game show was thought to be too bizarre to translate to America, but the times, they are a-changin'. Hot on the heels of the summer hit Wipeout comes Hole in the Wall, a Fox remake of the Japanese show in which contestants contort their bodies to pass through a strangely-shaped hole in an advancing wall, lest they be knocked backwards into a pool. Sound simple? It is — gleefully so, as you'll see from the clip (after the jump). We could have used some more J-pop songs or cute, lightning-spouting rat/dogs watching from the sidelines, but otherwise, we think we've found the crown jewel of the fall lineup. It's bold for Hole in the Wall to premiere on the anniversary of September 11, but if this show can't heal America's wounds, what can?
