What are some game shows that you appreciate?

I watched The Price is Right, Family Fued, and Press Your Luck a bit growing up. And later on, I really liked watching Love Connection.

Remember when I told you about Catch 21, which is the game show Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air hosts? Well, now he's hosting another show called Spell-Mageddon.

Occasionally I will watch Jeopardy. Um, I mean Jeopardy!.

I grew up watching Wheel of Fortune.

I listen to Wait Wait Don't Tell Me when somebody else turns on the radio for it, but I never seek it out.

I think I would like to watch old game shows made in 40s/50s/60s.

About a year ago, someone made the same mistake of mispronunciation.

I've always liked "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?"

The version without Meredith Vieira was better than the one with her. The music and tone of the show was more atmospheric, and there weren't a novel full of rules. All you had to was win money and use the Lifelines if needed. There was no time-limit for the questions (Except for the phone Lifeline.) and the show wasn't reduced to a half-hour, meaning that more contestants had the chance to play in one night.

Are you sure this isn't Double Dare? Or perhaps You Can't Do That on Television


I like those other ones you mention. I always forget them because I grew up without cable, so I only got to see them a couple of times.

I had forgotten all about that show. I did watch that one on occasion.
