Daily Dose: “It’s ‘Jeoprady’ or ‘Wheel of Fortune” says sports radio host Dan Patrick on what game shows he’d be willing to host. Patrick, who rose to prominence at ESPN and how hosts a show for DirecTV and NBC Sports Network on radio and TV, is often mentioned as a potential game show host.

Patrick conceded that it might be a personality adjustment for him because game show hosts always have to be happy. “Here I can be in a bad mood,” he said.

Of course, these new screens mean higher prices for customers. The Los Angeles Times looks at the movie screen growth spurt.
