Hollywood Squares, esp when Paul Lynde was on was pretty entertaining.

Price is Right for the hostesses

Big Pat Sajak fan. That’s the only game show that I regularly watch. Miss him.

Bill Cullen is the GOAT host. Others study him.

Match Game is the greatest.
Followed closely by The Gong Show.

Kirstie Alley before she was famous.

I can hear the Match Game theme song. I think this is the best choice.

I'm an old timer and like reruns of I've Got a Secret and What's My Line.

Groucho is the best host. The strength of the show, You Bet Your Life, is his congenial banter with the contestants.

I loved that show! 28 minutes of “who cares?” but then 1 glorious minute (and a few commercials) where a person picked 1 of 5 or 6 cars to see if the keys worked. If the engine didn’t turn over, that car was eliminated if the same contestant won again.

They could not pull that game off today. Players wouldn’t know how to use a physical key in a car and would want a fob or an app.

As a kid, my sister's and I always liked the whammy show and the supermarket show.

Loved the shopping the winner did. Was extra special when they had to buy the giant porcelain Dalmatian. The rest on a gift certificate.

I like the game shows that are bit more about knowledge and less about luck. My luck sucks.
