I don't remember this show. I do remember a Trivial Pursuit gameshow but it aired just a few years ago and was hosted by Christopher Knight (aka Peter Brady). DTK I know how you feel. No one will play trivial pursuit with me either. I own the genus game and at least half a dozen subsidiary card sets.
