Favorite Game Show Moments?? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Steveman68 · 07-18-2001, 09:16 PM

I was wondering what everyone's favorite, funniest, or most memorable game show moments would be? Mine would have to be (in no particular order):
1.) Super Password--When Rip Taylor pulled off his toupee
2.) Newlywed Game--When the couple that was very similar to Archie & Edith Bunker were on and the question was something like "He doesn't want anyone to know it, but my husband is a closet _____" and the wife replied "queen". Bob Eubanks' and "Archie's" reactions were priceless
3.) Press Your Luck--the 2-part episode in which over $100,000 was won. I can still picture the look on Peter Tomarken's face. He couldn't believe what was happening.

I have 4 (in no particular order)

1. On a '75 ep. of Match Game PM, where, on the super match Admiral BLANK , Richard Dawson says (Admiral) Color TV, everyone laughs at it, then that's the top answer (THANKS EARL!)

2. The part on that ep of Super Password where Rip TAylor pulls off his toupee (the varius technical glitches are funny too!)

3. Where Michael Larson wins over $100,000 on Press Your Luck (I beat that with the same board on a PC version once)

4. The first playing of One Away on TPiR. I have a hard time explaining this. If you got realplayer G2 or higher, just go here and view it for yourself (along with the Rip Taylor incedent)... http://www.fortunecity.com/meltingpo...53/theatre.htm

I just watched the One Away clip (and a few other funny ones) and I thought that it was hilarious! Good choice!

Anyone remember some Double Dare episode where Marc Summers aksed a little girl what her favorite show was? She said Finders Keepers. LOL!

Brett Ferino · 07-19-2001, 11:51 AM

Remember when Marc was late on DD because there was too much traffic? Boy that was funny.

I know everyone remembers this game show moment:

Picture it, "the Price is Right", 1979: The contestants are called down to contestants row. All of a sudden, the infamous Yolanda Bearsley comes down with a tube top. the minute she comes on down, her boobs "came on out"! The Most famous, if not infamous, moment in TPiR history!

07-30-2001, 12:09 PM

That was '77 (I'm pretty sure)..........................

Direct Link to the One Away thing----- http://gscentral.net/oneaway.rm (make sure you have RealPlayer G2 or higher (G2 or 8) . It's hilarious.

Now where have I seen them before......

I remember the tube top episode of TPIR. I think that was 1977 also. My favorite has to be an episode of the 25,000 Pyramid. Alan Alda was one of the guest stars and this funny happened during the give/receive part of the show. You know, when the celeb was paired with a contestant before going to play in the winners circle. Alan Alda was giving the clues, and the word the contestant had to guess was DEER. Well, the clue he gave was DOE. The contestant reponded with KNOB!!! { As in DOE-KNOB / DOORKNOB } Alda literally feel out of his chair laughing. I'm not sure which was funnier. Years later I read somewhere that the contestant sued the show over that.

On TPIR, the model Holly suffered an embarassing momment when she landed on her rear. She was sitting or balancing on top of a sofa corner, then fell over backwards. The tumble was so severe that one of her shoes came off! She was very red.

Have a nice day

Chelsea · 10-12-2001, 03:41 PM

How did Holly pull off so many bloopers (Janice too for that matter)

bb · 10-14-2001, 08:21 PM

I remember visiting my mom at her job and she was watching The Price is Right. This was I would guess around 1982 or so.

The part of TPIR where the 3 contestants would spin the wheel ( for cash, $1 = $1000 ect.. and to win the chance to go the showcases ). Anyway a young woman spins the wheel and goes over ( think she ends up with $1.25 ).

Bob Barker says "..well you went over. Thanks for being on The Price Is Right".

The woman gave Bob the most meanest face and said "...."f" you ..." and stormed off the stage. Of course you couldnt hear her say the F word but if you watched her mouth thats what she said.

I am looking for a clip of this. Do you have it! I've been trying to explain it to my friends and they're clueless as to how funny it was!!!
