Game Show Network, the leader in game shows and competitive entertainment, has announced Valerie Bertinelli as the host of BINGO BLITZ®, a new show based on the world’s most popular free to play Bingo app*, Bingo Blitz. The half-hour original series is scheduled to premiere Spring 2025.

In the BINGO BLITZ game show on Game Show Network, two contestants compete in a dynamic blend of trivia and bingo. The ultimate game of knowledge, strategy and luck, contestants answer trivia to earn bingo balls and points. In addition to numbered bingo balls, players also receive gold balls they can strategically place on their cards to increase their chances of making a bingo. Bingos earn the players bonus points, and special ‘power-ups’ on the players’ cards earn them extra points, bingo balls and prizes. After three rounds, the player with the highest score advances to the fast-action Blitz round, where making a bingo in 60 seconds or less awards them $10,000.

Valerie Bertinelli’s long and celebrated career includes being an equally beloved actress, Emmy® Award-winning host, New York Times best-selling author, spokesperson, and entrepreneur. A two-time Golden Globe® winner, Valerie landed her big break at age 15 as Barbara Cooper on One Day At A Time, Norman Lear’s 1975 acclaimed series. She helped develop, produce, and star in many highly rated TV movies and mini-series and for six seasons starred as Melanie Moretti in TV Land’s hit sitcom Hot in Cleveland. In August 2012, she received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Valerie has also written several best-selling memoirs and cookbooks and has hosted two of her own shows on the Food Network. Her best and favorite production is her son, Wolfgang, who achieved his own fame as the bassist for the legendary rock group Van Halen on its 2007-2008 North American Tour and for his own Grammy-nominated band, Mammoth WVH. In September 2024, Valerie joined The Drew Barrymore Show as a lifestyle expert. Valerie will soon be heard in Disney Jr’s new animated series, RoboGobo.

As a category leader, Bingo Blitz, the free-to-play app by Playtika, has been celebrating bingo moments for over a decade! Get in on the action and play alongside the show by downloading the app for free in the App Store, Google Play Store, or online at www.bingoblitz.com.

Oh ! Valerie Bertinelli BLAH !!! :p:lol::D

Oh ! Valerie Bertinelli BLAH !!! :p:lol::D

You don’t mean that, honey buddy sweetie.

Ah man!

I was thinking April 23 would be an appropriate start day, but that’s a Wednesday and I suppose this must start on a Monday.

The ads for the Bingo Blitz app with Drew Barrymore are really annoying, did not make me want to play the game at all. Candy Crush is another popular game app but its TV game show was a big flop. Maybe the game show on this won't be as annoying as the app ads. But what Valerie should host is Scrabble on the CW, Raven-Symone is not a good host there and Valerie would definitely be an upgrade.

June 25th would be better !! :cool::wave:

Yeah, your right ! I'm sorry ! I been grumpy ! My bidet' broke down and also I've had to make my own bed lately ! :cool::D:wave:

Note to Valerie (who I’m sure is reading this)— Betty White did indeed host a game show and in fact won an Emmy for it.

Wednesday, April 9

Valerie Bertinelli's gonna host Bingo Blitz? I never knew Valerie could have the talent to host a game show. It will be interesting to see how well Valerie Bertinelli can host a game show. Probably she got chosen to host Bingo Blitz because she is a game show fan like me. Is it also gonna be shown on the GSN channel on Frindly TV? Because if is I might give Bingo Blitz a watch

I also was very lucky to see Bingo Blitz on GSN also on Frindly TV as a recommendation of our good friend Opus. And let me tell you Bingo Blitz is the cutest game show ever and the gameplay is superb and really does bring the app game to life on TV so well. The set of Bingo Blitz reminded me of Dave And Buster's and Bingo Blitz looks easy to master. It may remind people of Lingo with Chuck Woolery but much better. As for Valerie Bertinelli as host of Bingo Blitz she is also cute and has loads of fun hosting this show and she is a wonderful ray of sunshine when you see her host. I can guarantee that Bingo Blitz will get a Season 2 renewal soon enough because for her game show hosting debut Valerie Bertinelli does a fun job of it
Overall Grade: A

I don’t believe you’re right. The only Bingo you’re familiar with is the one from Gilligan’s Island.

Here is another Bingo she remembers well:

Before Bertinelli had her "Blitz", does anybody remember Bingo America? The short-lived, two season retooling of National Bingo Night hosted by Ed Sanders with Yesenia Adame as co-host and Sunil Nakar as bingo caller?

In season one, it was Patrick Duffy and Crystal Wallasch. Then in season two, they were replaced by Richard Karn and Diane Mizota.

" There was a farmer had a dog and Bingo was his name O . B I N G O B I N G O B I N G O and Bingo was his name O " ! :D

I remember the Bingo tune well.

Now, how about this children's classic from Captain Kangaroo:

Little red caboose, chug-chug-chug
Little red caboose, chug-chug-chug
Little red caboose behind the train, train, train, train
Smokestack on its back-back-back-back
Comin' 'round the track-track-track-track
Little red caboose behind the train...!

You all focusing on the Bingo when it’s obvious the Blitz is much more important

Would you settle for a “vaguely”?

For a minute there I thought people wouldn't have cared, talk about or let alone remember Bingo America at all.

But then again, people probably would remember Lingo with Woolery rather than Bingo America.

Would be nice if Chuck Woolery's Lingo aired on GSN again, along with Greed. Greed is a much smarter show than dumb Deal or No Deal.

Its pretty sad in the early 2000s, that GSN missed an opportunity to do a Greed with Chuck Woolery and Debt with Wink Martindale block. You know having a show that gets you a huge paycheck, while the other takes it away and gives you nothing in return.

No. In a thread titled ‘Valerie Bertinelli Named Host of Bingo Blitz on Game Show Network’ he went with a photo of Sheila Glickstein. Odd choice, but whattaya gonna do? :shrug:

" It's It's a bar room blitz , It's it's a bar room blitz" ! Remember that song by Sweet? I think it was by Sweet?

(Yes, Sweet. But it was Ballroom Blitz)

GSN should definitely make the advertising slogan for the show “Get Blitzed With Valerie!”

I don't know about you guys, but if any of you have ever visited Valerie Bertinelli's facebook page, It's kind of embarrasing to say, but when she says that she is having a "Dry January", I confusedly thought that she had a problem with her, well, how can I give a politically correct version of this? I though that she was suffering from a *clears throat* "major malfuction" in her "downstairs department". But then I realized that "Dry January" means "No Alcohol" so I guess that good enough for her.

Ah Man !

Yesterday I was watching this week's Bingo Blitz episode on GSN on Frindly TV when suddenly when the show was over my TV remote's batteries went dead and I had to watch even more Bingo Blitz and it was like a mini-marathon but my mom saved the day and put new batteries in my remote and then I went to do commercial research. But since getting the Bingo Blitz app I watch every single Bingo Blitz episode to brush up on my skills and learn hints for playing the app and watching the show has really helped me master the Bingo Blitz app easily
