May 7, 1980-NBC Game Show Lineup (WNBC)

Other YT channels have uploaded parts of this over the years, sometimes one program or sometimes just commercials. Here is the entire three hour recording of the NBC daytime game show block from May 7, 1980 on WNBC-New York when SIX game shows were part of the lineup.
10:00 AM-Card Sharks (Jim Perry)
10:30 AM-Hollywood Squares (Peter Marshall)
11:00 AM-High Rollers (Alex Trebek)
11:30 AM-Wheel Of Fortune (Chuck Woolery)
12:00 PM-Chain Reaction (Bill Cullen)
12:30 PM-Password Plus (Bill Cullen subbing for Allen Ludden)
Because the "Password Plus" is incomplete on the original recording, the conclusion and end credits are taken from a cable repeat. The full version of that replay in better quality is at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5AEOJwgmEhc.html
Six weeks later, three of the game shows above (HSQ, High Rollers and Chain Reaction) would be cancelled to make room for David Letterman's failed morning show. "Wheel Of Fortune" incredibly came close to being axed as well but got a last minute reprieve. Otherwise, there would be no phenomenon that goes on to the present day.
A recording like this offers a rare insight into how much daytime game shows were once important to network schedules. Something we will never see the likes of again as "The Price Is Right" on CBS remains the last legacy of that vanished era.

Thanks for posting this. Sadly, a surviving episode of the daytime Hollywood Squares is a rarity.

@cwf1701 16 дней назад

they could be more. GSN in 2002 or 03 aired a daytime show from 1977 as part of a theme of Halloween related shows (the daytime show that they aired was part of the Storybook Squares theme week from the 1970s)

This is history right here i was almost a year from being born but i love and respect the game show genre and history, its sad that chuck woolery and peter marshall are the only hosts still alive

@swishucation 6 дней назад

These episodes aired the day before I was born. 😊. Too bad there isn’t a daytime lineup like this anymore.

Casey Kasem reads erroneous copy for the "Flamingo Road" promo when he reads Mark Harmon's name as *Tom* Harmon. Tom was Mark's father, a star football player.

As for WOF, for those of you who were born in the 80s or later, you'll notice the hostess is Susan Stafford. (I can see why my father loved her on the show). My father was upset when Stafford left the series midway through 1982. After having several ladies audition to replace Susan, WoF found the person that needs no introduction. And a year later in 1983, the show went prime-time in syndication and the rest is history. Poor Alex Trebek when High Rollers was cancelled six weeks later. I wonder whatever became of him...........

Well.....he did get stiffed in his next hosting job, "Pitfall" which the company never paid him for! :)

@@epaddonAnd Alex wouldn’t be the only emcee that got stiffed by Catalina Productions, the company that produced Pitfall. Catalina also stiffed fellow Canadian Monty Hall as well. They co-produced the often forgotten 1980-81 version of Let’s Make a Deal and when contestants weren’t getting paid for their winnings, Monty took Catalina to task over their mishandling of contestants’ winnings.

While baseball is what I enjoy watching the most, it was NOT my first love. In fact, it wasn't until the mid-90s, in my 7th-8th grade years, that I really started getting into the National Pastime. The game shows were. Born in 1981, I grew up watching shows like Classic Concentration, Press Your Luck, Scrabble, WOF, Jeopardy! and of course, Price is Right. It helped that channels like the USA Network had an afternoon game show block during my elementary school days. That's how I got into Face the Music, NTT (Lange), the $25k and $100k Pyramie, PYL and many others. But you surprised me with a WHOLE block of daytime game shows.......and one before I entered this planet. This is really something to see. And I didn't know WOF in '80 was nearly axed. Thank heavens it wasn't, or Vanna White's only TV appearance would be as a contestant on TPIR.

@epaddon 4 месяца назад

This was part of my era of watching game shows, just like Rizzuto-Messer-White doing Yankee games on WPIX were part of the same era. It was always fun to miss school and get a chance to see the game shows!

@josephwright1519 4 месяца назад

Those NBC shows reused a lot of stuff. Card Sharks used the TPIR losing horns during Money Cards, High Rollers used Wheel of Fortune sound effects. Hollywood Squares was very stale at this time. Secret Square only being worth $3,400… High Rollers was a very underrated show.

@epaddon 4 месяца назад

It wasn't uncommon for cues from Goodson shows to be used on other shows even if they hadn't been on the same network (The "Card Sharks" theme music was recycled from the 1976-77 CBS Goodson show "Double Dare" that Trebek hosted in between the separate runs of "High Rollers"). NBC shows also had their standard sound effects, especially the "Mother MacKenzie" fake audience reactions (especially when prizes are being described you always hear that same "oooooh!" reaction) that they used on just about all their shows in that era.

@JMFabiano 4 месяца назад

What's interesting here is the aftermath...Jim just looks behind the cards but doesn't reveal them post-mortem. Just says it's a middle card, and another middle card. S&P influence?

@user-gm9he1os5o Месяц назад

@megamanj2004X 12 дней назад

For the next season, only Card Sharks, Wheel of Fortune, and Password Plus survived. Bill Cullen later hosted Blockbusters.

@megamanj2004X 12 дней назад

And Blockbusters would be joined by a revival of another Heatter-Quigley hit show in Gambit, hosted by Wink Martindale as Las Vegas Gambit.

@benkizer9509 5 дней назад

All these hosts would come back with other shows on NBC soon after: Jim Perry (Sale of the Century), Chuck Woolery (Scrabble), Alex Trebek (Battlestars, Classic Concentration), Bill Cullen (Hot Potato) and Peter Marshall (Fantasy). The Hollywood Squares looked quite dated at this point, with a very cheap budget. While I never liked the John Davidson version, it did modernize it quite a bit.

If I'm calculating this right, the 𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘦 episode is #1380. In total, the original NBC Daytime run of WOF from January 3, 1975 to June 30, 1989 had 3,686 episodes. 𝘊𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘚𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘴 is #527, 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 is #083, and 𝘗𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘥 𝘗𝘭𝘶𝘴 is #347. No idea about the other two.

@@epaddon There were definitely some incomplete weeks. No idea if the skipped episodes are missing or damaged, or if they didn't finish converting everything.
