As we first reported here last year, Craig taped a pair of pilot episodes of the show, to give the producers some examples to show prospective supporters. After the show was shopped around to the networks, game show distributors FremantleMedia and Debmar-Mercury (the same groups that distributes Family Feud<\/em> in syndication and shows like The Price Is Right<\/em> and Let’s Make A Deal<\/em> on CBS) announced Monday they will distribute the show in syndication next fall. The announcement did not mention if any television station groups have signed up so far, but as we hear about them, we’ll let you know. Since the show will be syndicated, you’ll need to check the local listings “in your region” for times and channels.\r\n\r\n\"Identity<\/a>The format of the show is is based on board game Identity Crisis<\/em>, where contestants team up with celebrities to guess a famous person’s identity (real or fictional) based on a series of clues. The show is produced by Coquette Productions, owned by Courtney Cox<\/strong> and David Arquette<\/strong>. The story was reported widely on Monday in publications like Variety<\/a>, The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>, Broadcasting & Cable<\/a>, Newsday<\/a> and the Los Angeles Times<\/a>.\r\n\r\nOn Stage with Craig\"AngellaD<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\r\nA Craig fan named @AngellaD<\/strong> had a chance to get up on stage with Craig and Josh in Kelowna, BC last Thursday. She was even able to snap a smartphone photo. She blogged about her story<\/a>, explaining how it all happened. Thanks to the RSA’s @bgrhubarb<\/strong> for the link!\r\n\r\nLou Reed<\/strong><\/span>\r\nAs a punk rock fan, Craig and many of the bands he listened to were undoubtedly influenced by singer\/songwriter Lou Reed<\/strong>, who passed away over the weekend.\r\n\r\nVideo courtesy: Chelseacf<\/span>\r\n
