I’m a semi-finalist and i received the contract that was 19 pages long and full of all kinds of legal crap that i don’t know what half of what it means.

If you were on one, how was your experience and was it worth it?

No one ever has. Those people are all robots.

Also, subtle brag.

Always wanted to go on the price is right and play plinko with bob Barker hosting. This isn't going to happen.

Also double dare. Get to pick the nose.

Tried out for Jeopardy. Passed the written test and apparently did well in the test game, but they never called me.

I think I was just too handsome and they decided America would resent my stunning looks.

My aunt was on The Price is Right and won a bunch of shite. You have to pay taxes on anything you win, so go easy.

Former co-worker was on the Price is Right in the mid-1980’s. When he got up on stage, his wife went crazy excited. Barker said something along the lines of “You’re wife sure is excited to see you up here!” My friend just dead panned “Bob, I’ve never seen that woman before in my life.” Won a trip to New York and some furniture.

I was on Jeopardy!- filmed in July 0f 1999 and aired in September of that year.

Was winning all the way up until Final Jeopardy- bet enough to make sure I won if I got the question right. Of course, I got it wrong- all three of us did.

The guy in 3rd place bet nothing and ended up winning the game.

The more I have learned about the experience of being on a game show, the more it looks like it is something I would never want to do.

An ex-employee of mine was on Jeopardy. He taped in August 2017, his episode was scheduled to air in January 2018 but was bumped due to some national news story. Due to the NDA he signed I never found out how he did, I don’t think his episode aired here, and he eventually left for another job

Not personally but I did guess the correct answer on final jeopardy just from hearing the category. Proud of that.
