Leslie Jones auditioned to be on Supermarket Sweep in the 90s - because her partner left the auditions early, through no fault of Leslie's own, she didn't make it onto the show. ROSSITER: Earlier than you're going to believe, because Fremantle is the company that owns the intellectual property that is Supermarket Sweep, and they've owned it for a while. The show's been in development for quite some time - at what point did she feel like the right person to take on the host role? I want to talk a little bit about Leslie Jones, because she's such a force. The elitism question's really interesting, just because, for some reason, I'm now thinking about that famous political moment where George Bush was at a supermarket during the campaign, and he didn't know the price of milk.
So it makes it really fun for everyone to watch. Whether they can get to it or not in time is different. I think the thing we've talked about a lot, Alycia, and that I tell people when I tell them about the show, is if you don't know the answer to our question, and then we tell you the answer, and you go, "Oh, well, I've heard of Glad Cling Wrap," or "I've heard of Bounce." On other shows, if you don't know the answer, and then we say, "It's the Lighthouse at Alexandria," you're like, "What?" Every answer we have on our show, everyone's heard of it at some point. KAUBLE: That's one of the things that's really interesting when you go back and watch episodes that are on Netflix now, or whatever it is, those brands are still the brands we're using in our show. You have to have lived on Earth and have a big heart. You don't have to have exceptional trivia talent, or you don't have to have the best memory.
