Game Show Network New Shows Launch April 14; NBC Picks Up 3rd Comedy Pilot, While Bobby Moynihan Joins Tracy Morgan Pilot

Game Show Network, the leader in game show entertainment across multimedia, premieres two new weeknight shows beginning Monday, April 14. Brooke Burns will host an updated version of the classic Tic Tac Dough at 7PM ET, while Valerie Bertinelli hosts an all-new show, Bingo Blitz, based on the free-to-play app Bingo Blitz, at 7:30PM ET.
Tic Tac Dough is an update of NBCUniversal's classic format originally created by Robert Noah. The show is hosted by the incomparable Brooke Burns (Master Minds, The Chase), who guides two contestants as they compete to place three of their marks in a row on the giant trivia board. After three rounds, the winning player moves on to face the dragon in the grand prize round, where the dragon moves strategically on the board to block the player’s ability to make three-in-a-row and take home $10,000.
In Bingo Blitz, hosted by Valerie Bertinelli (Hot in Cleveland, One Day at a Time), two contestants compete in a dynamic blend of trivia and bingo. The ultimate game of knowledge, strategy and luck, contestants answer trivia to earn bingo balls and points. In addition to numbered bingo balls, players also receive gold balls they can strategically place on their cards to increase their chances of making a bingo. Bingos earn the players bonus points, and special ‘power-ups’ on the players’ cards earn them extra points, bingo balls and prizes. After three rounds, the player with the highest score advances to the fast-action Blitz round, where making a bingo in 60 seconds or less awards them $10,000.
NBC picks up its third comedy pilot of the season with the Untitled Ornelas, Keliiaa and Wilson Project. The previous two were the Tracy Morgan project and Stumble. All three are from Universal Television and are single-camera pilots. An ensemble comedy set at a Native community center in Oakland, Calif. The employees hustle to keep the lights on while lifting up those in need.
Meanwhile, Bobby Moynihan has joined the cast of the Untitled Tracy Morgan Project as Gator, Reggie's loyal former teammate who has always stuck with him even when things went sideways. Tracy Morgan, Daniel Radcliffe, Erika Alexander, and Bobby Moynihan so far leads this cast, about a disgraced former football player on a mission to rehabilitate his image.
