Unique simulcast on TV channels tonight

Already been done, albeit as a question/computer game variant in Belgium, this has apparently been on the air in some form or another since 1994:


Also what became Hole In The Wall apparently has roots to Tetris, and started as a segment on a Japanese TV show.

There is a real life version of Tetris floating around somewhere, except its time limited (by virtue of the fact a completed line can't just vanish since the pieces are whole) so its a case of "completing" it without leaving too many holes:

Talk of the devil...



Not quite a soap, but "a four-episode reality competition television show to broadcast on the TBS network on July 17, 2020. The series, filmed in December 2019, features 12 contestants, selected from those known to feature The Sims in their online gaming channels, tasked with challenges within The Sims 4 to create characters and stories following the challenge's themes and limitations"

This seems to get an outing every day during the first break of The Chase, and seen it just before Pointless too. Guess as well as self promoting it is useful for filling promo time whilst new content to promote is limited.

I just looked at that clip of Blokken, it reminds me of Going For Gold oddly enough! (OK besides the point of tetris instead) but the gaming layout is similar ie one of the games it starts at 5(?) then a player starts answers the question or its past to the other if wrong (memory is vague) but just looking at the clip that was the first thing that sprung to mind

Interesting impression of Ozzy Osbourne at 8:30 in the clip, complete with the F word. Then a few seconds later the host tells someone who appeared in a clip "f*** you!". Wouldn't her that on Pointless or The Chase!
