How many episodes should I get for a Game Show set? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I am making a Match Game set, so far I have about 30 episodes I believe. I don't know when I should stop recording though. There are so many episodes of the show I could record them everyday for years and years and years. What is a good stoping number? I was thinking 100 or something like that. It would be 20 disks that way if I have 5 on each disk. Any sugestions on when to stop?

Well, if it was me and it was a show I enjoyed watching, I'd probably record them all. (shrug) One thing I would recommend too, is to keep a list of the celebrities on each show. (I try to do this with all my shows - operative word being 'try'.) That way, if someone is looking for appearances of a particular celebrity, you can (hopefully) locate any episodes you may have with that celebrity. (It seems harder to locate game show episodes, since there are no episode titles & often people with the shows may not know the original air date, etc. So it's just easier if you can locate it by celebrity name. At least in my experiences with my Hollywood Squares episodes.)

You could record them around the clock until you were Harvey's age, and you still would have a long way to go!
