CBS'powerhouse "The Young and the Restless" (the first half or second half)and fell by the wayside-in other words,were cancelled.This was in the 1970's,and 1980's,in the days before ABC and NBC gave up on game shows.Name some of them.

When The Young and the Restless debuted in 1973, the soap opera's game show competition was the Art Fleming hosted Jeopardy and The Who, What or Where Game on NBC and the 70s version of Password and Split Second on ABC. Other shows that went against the CBS soap included the following:

Jackpot!
Showoffs
The Magnificant Marble Machine
To Say the Least
Name That Tune
The Gong Show
The Better Sex
Second Chance (The forerunner of Press Your Luck)
Card Sharks
The $20,000 Pyramid
Family Feud
Chain Reaction
Mindreaders
Hot Potato
50 Grand Slam
Password Plus
The Fun Factory (A short-lived game-variety show that was hosted by Bobby Van).
Super Password

And,it's a shame,too.Some(not all )of the game shows that ABC and NBC pitted against "The Young and the Restless"were very good.And,when it went up against "The Young and the Restless",ironically,NBC moved "Jeopardy",(then hosted by the late Art Fleming)from its comfortable Noon/11 AM Central timeslot,back to 1:30 pm/12:30 pm. its original timeslot in 1964.
