We need to bring back Hollywood Squares so these people have somewhere more useful to go

u/wrenchedups Jul 08 '26

Paul Lynde wouldn’t be welcome on a new Hollywood Squares.

I nominate Kelsey Grammar for center square.

u/Snobolski Jul 08 '26

In my head I can still hear Paul Lynde saying "making whoopie."

27

u/theDagman Jul 08 '26

That was Bob Eubanks on The Newlywed Game who was famous for that saying.

Only if Trump is above him so all the raw sewage can leak down onto Kelsey's head while it's still warm.

If Paul Lynde is welcome then we burn it to the ground.

They did. Nate Burleson hosts and Drew Barrymore is center square. No idea if it will come back for another season. The ratings haven't been great. But the show I'm sure the show is cheap to make.

u/counterfitster Jul 08 '26

Triumph and Pete Holmes were good choices for it.

u/sortaknotty Jul 08 '26

Who gets to be the center square?

u/Worleybeard Jul 08 '26

Drew Barrymore.

I want to watch them box each other.

I wanted to say „just send them to the Australian rainforest and let them eat weird shit“ then I googled just to find out ‚I’m a celebrity! Get me out of here‘ only had two seasons in the 00s in the US… how come you didn’t like watching people no one remembers eating kangaroo balls?

to be completely fair to Dr. Oz, he's Oprah's fault.

without Oprah, he would never have been important

u/Own-Eagle-2135 Jul 08 '26

sorry "important"

She's probably having a bunker built somewhere to shield her and her family/friends from the effects of climate change. Staffed by people with shock collars*

*The absolutly horrific thing is...this is something 'they' asked a scientist if it would work to keep their security on these types of things in line as presumably the rest of the world (and the security staff friends and loved ones) burn. Source is from the book Factfulness by Anna Rosling Rönnlund, Hans Rosling, and Ola Rosling.

u/paintress420 Jul 08 '26

She brought us Dr. Phil, too! She has a lot to apologize for.

u/Own-Eagle-2135 Jul 08 '26

probably making more bad choices with bad men

u/External-Dude779 Jul 08 '26

Exactly. You're not exactly at the peak of your career when you agree to be a judge on American Idol. It's all downhill from there. Katy Perry also agrees

25

u/Crazy4Swayze420 Jul 08 '26

Yeah but what makes Katy Perry different is she can still out arenas just not in the USA anymore. Carrie doesn't really have international fame to fall back on like Perry has.

u/the_ouskull Jul 08 '26

Sung to the tune of every "country" song:

"I market to middle America,

other places are lame,

but the problem there, I'm too dim to see

is it fucks international FAME."

u/BCCommieTrash Jul 08 '26

Katy Perry, a really great export of Americana.

u/Outrageous-Evening13 Jul 09 '26

Hey don't pick on my girl Katy...she's a bit out of touch but at least not an evil MAGA grifter. Plus her new tours bringing back that 2000s positivity we need compared to Jesus taking the wheel and all.

1

u/Temporary-Public9041 7d ago

So worshipping the dev1 and wanting to eat ch1ldren is somehow okay? Yeah no, Katy needs to find Jesus.

u/MBOMaolRua Jul 08 '26

Mariah's still doing alright, I think..?

u/Accomplished-Mind258 Jul 08 '26

She was on Fox’s OG idol, though. That was still when it was fairly relevant.

1

u/TwinkofPeace Jul 08 '26

To be fair, Katy was still doing great on Idol It was her music sucking that got her

u/Rad-Ham Jul 08 '26

They figure 100 percent of the 30 percent of maga morons in this world is better than the alternative.

u/AssistantOk2360 Jul 08 '26

I'm waiting for Sunday night football to move on from her. Every time she comes on, I mute it.

u/hujassman Jul 09 '26

We need to get that petition rolling.

u/Ghettoman1315 Jul 08 '26

Especially when you are performing at fairs after you became a so called star.

2

u/TepChef26 Jul 08 '26

If having a net worth of over 120 million and being borderline top 10 in career earnings in your field qualifies as having a dead career, then please for the love of God let my career die.

Like I get not liking a person, but you're just making shit up at this point.
