Yeah, for quite a while GSN has been considered the US equivalent of Challenge, right down to randomly showing any old stuff they want at times and ignoring the GS bit. I've been impressed for a while just how far back they can go in archives for shows like Feud and Match Game, in contrast to the clearance paperwork and archive wipe that holds Challenge back from doing the same more often than not. I've a right mind to see some Dick Clark Pyramid now. I think he's better known over here for TV's Bloopers and Practical Jokes, which Challenge ran for a while over here at the turn of the century. Some might consider him to be the US equivalent to Denis Norden, being at the helm of a primetime blooper show. He also did the US version of Winning Lines, which was killed before it even began in America because it came when everyone was falling over themselves to give away skiploads of cash with Ominous Latin Chanting blasting in the players' ears, just because Millionaire did it and was successful, therefore they thought the Millionaire way must be the ONLY way to be popular. So many of those bandwagon shows were on, poor old Winning Lines got dismissed as just another Millionaire ripoff even though it was made by the same flippin' studio. Changing it in the wake of the bandwagon by giving away up to a million dollars instead of holidays didn't help - again, executives completely missed the point. I've wondered why Pyramid bombed with Donny Osmond in America whilst he was fairly well received over here. Watching on YouTube now, I can see something is off, but I can't figure out what. There's something about the UK show he nailed that he didn't in the US. Kinda makes it a shame he only did one season to plug a Wales gig. nondisclosed_email@example.com (rsmcc)Thu, 15 Dec 2016 17:50:55 +0000 Re: Game Show Networkhttps://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p343912,from=rss#post343912https://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p343912,from=rss#post343912For me I want to know: IS THE SHOW HAVING A NEW YEAR SPECIAL?   I'm excited for it whenever it is thoughnondisclosed_email@example.com (Messup434)Wed, 14 Dec 2016 05:13:05 +0000 Re: Game Show Networkhttps://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p342898,from=rss#post342898https://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p342898,from=rss#post342898Is episode 2 in the works? nondisclosed_email@example.com (Messup434)Tue, 11 Oct 2016 04:39:21 +0000 Re: Game Show Networkhttps://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341604,from=rss#post341604https://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341604,from=rss#post341604I will once I get a voice-transplant But seriously, thanks for the offer! nondisclosed_email@example.com (Messup434)Tue, 09 Aug 2016 06:14:05 +0000 Re: Game Show Networkhttps://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341595,from=rss#post341595https://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341595,from=rss#post341595Fair enough, You're always welcome if you should ever change your minds.nondisclosed_email@example.com (josechung)Mon, 08 Aug 2016 09:14:31 +0000 Re: Game Show Networkhttps://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341588,from=rss#post341588https://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341588,from=rss#post341588 Quote:josechung wrote: Thank you for the nice words.

As for the Match Game, there's plenty of original episodes on YouTube for me to watch instead. You just can't beat the classic 70s run. I've never watched the black and white original run, but I know it wasn't as "risque" as the 70s run was.nondisclosed_email@example.com (latedep31)Mon, 08 Aug 2016 02:26:26 +0000 Re: Game Show Networkhttps://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341583,from=rss#post341583https://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341583,from=rss#post341583I hate the Michael Strahan version. Dick Clark is obviously the best, Bill Cullen is a close second, Mike Richards wasn't bad, Donny Osmond was a good host the show just wasn't any good, John Davidson wasn't all that great but he was miles Better than Michael Strahan. The new versions of Pyramid and Match Game (or as I like to call it: "Alec Baldwin needs Beer Money") are just unwatchable. I still don't know why Strahan is a media personality. He's not funny, He's not a good Host, He's certainly not a good actor yet he's constantly the top choice for shows over better Emcees. (And let the accusations of me being a racist begin).nondisclosed_email@example.com (josechung)Mon, 08 Aug 2016 02:15:32 +0000 Re: Game Show Networkhttps://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341582,from=rss#post341582https://bkeshiheads.runboard.com/p341582,from=rss#post341582I was just talking about Pyramid.

I watched Itiotest, It's okay, but It's nothing outstanding. I'd rather watch classic Newlywed game. I miss how they aired 25,000.00 Pyramid most of all.

I guess you could say this is our equivalent to Challenge and they're some shows on it I really like. Let's take a look Starting with Idiotest On it they have two teams of two who compete in brain teasers. The main point is to get people thinking outside the box. Here's a Friends vs Married (yes they are all themed, which is a bit rubbish ) episode!: I'm guessing most people know of $10,000 Pyramid. Again, two teams, two people on each. One member will have to give clues as to what a word is and the other must guess what the word is. They're different categories (like four-letter words). Here you go: Yeah I couldn't find a full-screen episode on Youtube game I think you all know about the Chase - at least the British version. Three contestants have to try and beat the chaser, Mark Labbett (very smart). This is an episode of our own version: ANOTHER show you might know is Family Feud. Two five-player teams must guess an answer that some of 100 people who were surveyed said to a question (such as, something in your house that is too heavy to throw). The more people who gave it as an answer, the more points the contestant will earn! Here y'ar: And to end, there's Deal or No Deal. The contestants must test their luck and know when to stop risking it to get the most valuable case. Yes this is the British version Here it is!: Enjoy! And I'll post more if anyone's interested... nondisclosed_email@example.com (Messup434)Wed, 03 Aug 2016 20:26:46 +0000
