Him again

Is there a more tiresome game show personality than Arthur Chu?

Of course not. Which is why we've got to have a movie about the guy. Wouldn't you know, the linked story hits almost every item that everybody got to know and love about dear Arthur, whose only claim to fame is winning a few times on a game show.

Playing the race card. Check. Literally obscene political rants. Check. Pseudo deep think about Twitter and Facebook. Check. Cashing in with a ridiculous ticket price for his ridiculous movie. Check.

Ken Jennings, a much better Jeopardy player, has parlayed his streak into a career, which is mildly tedious but understandable. Chu just seems to annoy everybody for the sheer joy of the sport. And when people express their extreme boredom with him, he shouts race or politics or life's general unfairness.

What a guy. The perfect game show contestant for whines and whimpers.
