Does anyone remember this show that aired on USA from November 1986 to September 27, 1991? It was hosted by Geoff Edwards from JACKPOT and STARCADE. Anyway, was that one of the only USA network game show originals?

That version started sometime in 1989. USA's Chain Reaction started in 1986 with Blake Emmons, and it didn't have the $40,000 jackpot yet. Geoff Edwards filled in for Emmons a few months later as permanent host. Brett Ferino 07-14-2003, 09:53 PM Did Emmons get fired or something?

I think it's because they got rid of the celebrities. Ben F. Schumin :-) |
