Also this August, they will be taping a breast cancer awareness special.
That's 10 ratings points right there. "A new mammogram machine!"

Not to make light of breast cancer, but is TPIR really the right venue for breast cancer awareness?

Any pub is good pub, right?

Everybody else (except for Planned Parenthood) has given in to the ribbon bullies, why not TPIR?

What makes it a wrong venue? Any platform that can be used to raise awareness and get some donations is alright with me -- especially if it's a show that lots of people watch.

EDIT: This point has been made already, I see. I should refresh the page when I wake up. :P

Of all the specialty gimmick episodes they've started doing, I'm cool with this one. I'm trying to remember, but not counting episodes where a contestant/celebrity has their own charity, has a show (not just TPiR) ever donated money to one specific purpose or organization?

Concentration would have a holiday show for C.A.R.E.

For once, I guess the people who refer to Drew Carey as a boob would be on to something...

It played a part in killing Rod.  Why not?

(Not that they're going to mention Rod during the show -- they didn't last year -- but still.)
