Hi guys,
If you hadn't heard, FOX is bringing back 25 Words or Less hosted by Meredith Vieira that premiered last summer as a three week trial run. It will be a series coming out this fall. I applied to be a contestant on the show and a coordinator called me today stating they are holding auditions next week at 11 am or 3 pm PDT. I haven't gotten a day finalized yet as I left a message and replied to their email but if everything works out, this would be my 3rd game show as a contestant!

Fun news! The tentative broadcast schedule for 25 Words or Less is now available: syndication.extremereach.com/library/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/25WOL-S1-2019-2020-AirSchedule-as-of-08-16-19.pdfThe show launches on September 16 and is available as a double run. It appears that 175 episodes will be produced. Two new episodes will run weekdays from 9/16 through 10/11, and the show will continue with a single new episode in the primary slot through 12/13, skipping only Thanksgiving and Black Friday. New daily single episodes continue on 1/6/20 thru 2/27, then (strangely) every other day from 3/2 thru 3/12. The season concludes with daily episodes from 3/30 through 6/5, skipping only 5/21 and 5/22 (the two days after the end of May Sweeps). (A new show is slotted for Memorial Day.) Of course, this is subject to change. I'm looking forward to it!

I'm glad Lisa Kudrow is trying to capitalize off of the success of Celebrity Name Game. 25 Words or Less is one of the few new game shows that I actually like.

Of course, this is subject to change. I'm looking forward to it! A new episode will air even on Christmas? No. The link I shared would answer that question. However, I recognize that my narrative above is not simple to parse, so allow me to re-state it differently. Sept. 16 - Oct. 11 - Two new episodes each weekday (double run markets only) Oct. 14 - Dec. 13 - One new episode each weekday, except for Nov. 28-29 Jan. 6 - Mar. 12 - One new episode each weekday, except for Feb. 28, Mar. 3, Mar. 5, Mar. 9, and Mar. 11. Mar. 30 - Jun. 5 - One new episode each weekday, except for May 21-22 As of now, the secondary run shows during the first month are never set to air during the primary, so I'm guessing a new version of the schedule will be issued at some point.

You know, I figuratively scratched my head when I heard Meredith Vieira was going to host the show. Then, I was kicking myself because I didn't need to! She won me over!

The 15 episodes that aired on some stations last SUmmer used some 21st century terminology as answers that some people hadn't heard of. I suspect there'll be some more of that in the series.

In the pilot episode that aired on KOCB 34, they had "LIZZO" as an unpicked "red box" clue.
I had to look up who Lizzo is, as this was the first time I'd ever heard of her.

I'd like this to be a home game. We haven't seen a game show get a first home game lately.

The show was based on a board game that came out circa 1997

Meredith will be back to hosting in studio this season for 25 Words or Less. As per Buzzerblog, teams will now be two contestants and one celebrity, the bonus round winnings will increase, but no word on how much. Teams can also stay as returning champions, but no word as to how many days they can stay on.

Does anyone know when Season 3 of 25 Words or Less premieres? I haven't seen any announcement about that (though I think maybe next week).
