Tony Hawk Surprises a Cancer-Stricken Child (VIDEO)
by Oliver Miller, posted Mar 30th 2010 4:59PM
Pro skateboarder Tony Hawk was on the latest episode of 'The Doctors' (weekdays, syndicated) to talk to a fan -- a young boy named Justin in Hershey, Pa., who is suffering from cancer. Justin has apparently had two bouts with cancer, and his strength shines through in a videotaped message to other children with the disease: "So if you hear this, cancer kids -- be strong, don't be scared, have courage, and fight the cancer."

Million Dollar Password -- An early look
by Joel Keller, posted May 30th 2008 3:22PM

Here's the thing about game show revivals: you have to satisfy people on two levels. For fans of the old show, you have to make the gameplay of the new show familiar enough to keep them happy and coming back. And, in order to attract new fans, you have to modernize and add touches that will suck in viewers and help build drama. That's one of the reasons why most new game shows have Who Wants to Be a Millionaire-style darkened sets with swirling lights, and depend on ominous music and tight camera angles to create drama.
Million Dollar Password, premiering Sunday at 8 PM ET, has all of that. They even nabbed Millionaire's original American host, Regis Philbin, to give it that extra bit of primetime oomph. But does it work? Well... sorta. Fans of the Allen Ludden / Tom Kennedy / Bert Convy incarnations might be dissatisfied with what they've done to their old favorite, but even an objective observer can see that the gameplay has some flaws that are going to need to be worked out for the show to succeed.
