Amen to that! Let's put the "game" back into "game show."

Portia de Rossi
Jeffery Tambor
Judy Greer
hosted by Jason Bateman

Rotate with Will Arnett, Tony Hale, Alia Shawkat and Henry Winkler.

OK, this started by substituting Jessica Walters for Brett Sommers and just grew from there.

Pretty sure you want the "Cast the Arrested Development movie" thread.

Why, by golly, you're right! That is a pretty good Arrested Development movie cast. What an amazing coincidence!

Would Foley and Pollack work together given what happened with Celebrity Poker Showdown?

I still think I'd prefer Foley as our host.

My dream panel is all but dead. And after watching the horrible roasts that Comedy Central puts on, I wouldn't want any of today's 3rd rate people/comedians doing the show.

The great thing about Betty White is that she was the same age in 1975 that she is now.

Upper left - rotate between Matthew Perry, Anthony Anderson, Andy Richter, and Triumph
Upper Middle - Courtney Love
Upper Right - Richard Simmons
Lower Left - rotate between Jennifer Tilly (nice choice from earlier in the thread), Jennie McCarthy, basically Juggs du Jour
Lower Middle - Love the Alec Baldwin suggestion, Regis would also work, maybe Eddie Izzard?
Lower Left - Betty White/Fannie Flagg/Marcia Wallace, Bonnie Hunt would be a good newcomer for this spot

Was there bad blood between the two? I know Foley replace Pollack on Celebrity Poker Showdown but never heard any backstage dirt on the situation. With my panel I'd rather have a more bitting personality but Foley would work well as a host.

I always figured that Pollack couldn't be too happy about being replaced, but I have nothing other than instinct to tell me that.
