Make some popcorn… set the DVR… cuddle up on the sofa…
for my big television debut on HGTV’s “Great Rooms With Meg.”
Airing this Saturday, June 16th at 8:00pm Central time.
Now sure, this isn’t my first television exposure… not to gloat, but I was on WGN’s
Bozo’s Circus when I was a little kid. And, not only was I on the show… I played the
game at the end when they would have a group of kids all playing the game. The challenge
was for me a my partner to stack cups & saucers on the flat end of a baseball bat. I held the
bat, and she stacked the cups & saucers… tallest stack a the end of the game wins!
Well, let me just say I was suddenly the proud owner of big prize…
a View-Master 3-D ‘Scooby-Doo’ Slide Projector!!!
But I digress…
Back to the real show… get ready to watch my “20-seconds of fame” this Saturday on HGTV.
I did a special project for them for a kitchen remodeling show they were doing. I made the
pieces and they came into my studio to do some filming of Meg and me. We did almost five
hours of filming… but I’m confident all of “my best work” will be left on the cutting room floor!
I’m sure they’ll craft all the pieces together to make a great show. I’m confident… or…
The editors thought it would be fun to see me all sweaty, flustered and rambling on like an
idiot on screen. It was seriously like 90-degrees in my studio. Trust me, it could go either way…
And let me just say… I still wish I had kept the ‘Scooby-Doo’ View-Master!!!
Would not miss it, Gary. Thanks for the reminder. Can’t wait to kid you about your “20 SECONDS” of … fame!
Fame?… Shame???… It’s such a fine line!!!
BOZO? Get OUT of here. That’s CRAZY COOL! I’m sorry I didn’t watch the tele to see you…I’m sorry I don’t own a tele to see you. Will you post a clip when and if the chance presents itself (of the HGTV spot…but the Bozo spot would be lovely too!) CONGRATS, Gary. Job well done!
