About this episode

The Game Show Network is a cable channel that shows all types of game shows -- everything from weird new shows filmed in small studios with creepy contestants to old black and white game shows where the rules aren't very clear. It also happens to be one of Tim's favorite channels, which is why he's steamed about the hit online game Wordle. It's a long story.
