Random game show trivia thread

[Jnelson09]

Alright. Here's one that I posted some time ago:

How many pricing games, active or retired, share their names with other, separate game shows? These can be spelled differently, but must have the same words.

I count at least seven.

[Jnelson09]

I guess what I meant to say is, can you name them? And I counted eight.

Here's what I've got:

Blank Check (which is now Check Game)
Bullseye
Hi(gh) Lo(w)
It's in the Bag
Pass the Buck
Take Two
Temptation

Still seven - eight if you count Bullseye twice.


While I await your reply, here's another random trivia question:

Name the short-lived Bob Eubanks show that on the last day of taping, the celebrity panelists, among them Gong Show regular Jaye P. Morgan, tore apart the set - ripped the carpeting, knocked out lights, and destroyed Bob's podium.

BTW, I'm not ignoring your question Jaimal, I'm stumped (I've thought about it for hours).

One more you haven't named. Want a hint?

You wouldn't be counting Joker by any chance, would you?

[Jnelson09]

Nope.

[dh027]

Yeah, I'll take a hint.  I'm clueless.

[Jnelson09]

Yeah, I'll take a hint.  I'm clueless.

OK

The show you haven't named is a cable show that debuted the same year the pricing game with the same name debuted.

I can give you another hint if you need it.

Clue

Clue

Wrong. Clue was adapted into a game show... in the UK. Boggle was one of the Family Channel's ill-fated interactive games in 1993. Scattergories was the third-last daytime game show to premiere in the US, running from January 1993 to June 1993. The Game of Life has not been adapted into a game show.
