In the promos for ABC's new game show Show Me The Money, they're really hitting the "William Shatner Is Hosting" angle. But the way they're doing it...?

I'm on a kick lately of reading celebrity trash blogs - DKY (Don't Know Why -- I'm trying to start a new web acronym here, all on my very own! Unless it's already been done, and then...I'm just late.)
