OK full episode from 1999
« on: May 12, 2008, 08:14:38 PM »
A great man named erodio76 uploaded on Youtube a full episode of Italian TPIR from 1999!   

This show aired December 8th 1999 and it was the first season with a male announcer and a male model.

This season featured the 7th and last set change, this time inspired by the UK version.

Sadly, it was also the last season hosted by Iva Zanicchi.








For those who like useless trivia, these pricing games debuted that season:  Spelling Bee, On the Nose, Shell Game and Juke Box.   In addition, Grand Game came back after a 4-year hiatus.
Pick-a-Pair and Range Game instead were retired.   :-(

As if you need more of a ringing endorsement, game #1 is Super Ball!!.
They can be close at the top, too.

yeah, at the time the show was hurried because they had very little time to edit the tape after the tapings.  Sometimes the show was taped one morning to be aired that same evening!

What happen to Iva New show?

It didn't go past the pilot episode.   Gameplay was very simple: contestants picked any number of squares off a board, each square hiding a number.  Closest to 90 without going over was the winner.   Each square had a hint at the number behind it, like "number of Oscars won by (movie)"  or a celebrity's age, or stuff like that.

There is a short clip of it here
