A month ago, when I posted about Wayne Brady’s revival of “Let’s Make A Deal,” I joked about the trend of former “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” cast members getting game shows.

Well, my North Carolina brother — who, unlike me, is not particularly a game show fan — has alerted me to the existence of “Head Games,” a Science Channel quiz show hosted by WLIIA veteran Greg Proops (the tall comedian with the Buddy Holly glasses). It’s actually not Proops’ first game show. He hosted a quiz show on Comedy Central called “Vs.”, which pitted teams of natural rivals against each other — a team of vegans versus a team of butchers, or a team of ministers versus a team of bartenders, that sort of thing.

Anyway, “Head Games” (co-created and co-produced by Whoopi Goldberg, although she doesn’t appear onscreen) is a light-hearted, slightly tongue-in-cheek game show with science as its topic. Imagine a cross between “Jeopardy!” and “Bill Nye, The Science Guy.” After my brother told me about it yesterday, my DVR picked up two episodes overnight and I watched them over breakfast. It’s a fun show, and I think I’ll keep recording it.

By the way, Proops has another distinction; he has been the U.S. voice of “Bob The Builder” in recent seasons.

I’m still waiting for Colin Mochrie and Ryan Stiles to turn up somewhere.
