Forgot About Great Gameshows On Television

[Jinxy McHippo]

I just watched the newest version of Scrabble today. It sucks. It got me to thinking about all of the great game shows the have tried to re-make.

Which got me to thinking about what my favorite gameshow was. Mine, by far Press your luck

Yours?

I enjoyed lets make a deal, crazy ass costumes, fun game, that game rocked the fat ass

i like all the shows mentioned so far. favorite would be Press Your Luck. that guy who went 30 or so turns without a whamee is funny shit. jokers wild, card sharks, and classic concentration were all great. i remember an episode of classic concentration where a guy kept guessing numbers over 15 or whatever it was to try and win the car. it was hilarious.

Press Your Luck is unbeatable. I remember when they tried to remake it and it wasn't the same. The little red Whamees running a lawn mower over the people's money was my favorite. I also miss ol' "neuter your animals" Bob Barker on Price is Right. Drew Carey sucks.

I saw a very interesting documentary on GSN where a player memorized the patterns used on the game board and won over $110,000. May 19, 1984

Paul Michael Larson (May 10, 1949 – February 16, 1999) was a contestant on the American television game show Press Your Luck in June 1984. Larson's claim to fame was his winning $110,237 in cash and prizes, which he was able to do by memorizing the patterns used on the Press Your Luck game board.

I don't know the name of this show but it was a 70/s beauty contest type of show and the winner got a cheap trophy and wore a crown made of carrots??? The host of the show would sing while the winner walks the runway.

$1.98 Beauty Show
Funny send-up of beauty contests produced by Chuck Barris. Some of the contestants are gorgeous and others ...aren't but it's all in fun and the best part is the host, Rip Taylor--he's a riot!
