I don't get that station on my TV but with what has been posted here already, I'm sure anyone of us would have done a better job.

I didn't see it but someone on Paul's site's message board said the guy identified Jane Asher as Linda! Terrible.

Default Beat the Geeks - Beatle Geek?

Did anyone else see this weeks Beat the Geeks on the Comedy Channel? They had a (so-called) Beatles Geek - he was terrible!!
My friend, who is more of a country music fan, was answering the questions better than he was. How bad was this guy? The question was "in what German city did the Beatles play in 1960" and this so-called Beatles Geek said Munich. Hel-lo! Even my friend knew it was HAMBURG! Ugh! I'm glad he was only a guest Geek.

I was wondering if I was the only one who saw it. What is even most amazing is that at the beginning he said he knew "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "She Loves You" in English and German and he didn't know the city they apprenticed? Even a novice reading a short Beatle bio would have known that.That could be understood, but this guy was supposed to be a Beatle expert. What a disappointment.

Oh, I was fuming! I was yelling at the guy! My friends were trying to calm me down. Ugh, he was a disgrace to Beatlemaniac & fans everywhere. I don't consider myself an "expert," but by golly I knew more about them than he did.

I catch that show occasionally, and have always wondered if they had a Beatles geek, now I see they do not.
Which is unfortunate, because the guest geeks (at least the few I've seen) have been quite impressive.

Hey, I want a job at the Game Show network to throw out my million dollar half-baked, lame ideas too! This show has got to be the dumbest, but at the same time, one of the most hilarious game shows I've ever seen!

Any one of us should have been on that show. We know the answers to Beatle questions. Every time any question about the Beatles come up, people who know me look to me with that, "all right, out with it" look. That's an honor.

Then we will remember things we said today. Yeah.

I saw a different episode of Beat The Geeks, where the Beatles Geek was asked,"Before Ringo joined the band, who turned down the chance to be the drummer?"The geek answered, "Pete Best". To tell you the truth, I did not know the answer was John Hutchinson.Shame on me.I'm not a geek.

My mind not only wanders, it sometimes leaves completely.
