Money in the Blank - 1987 Pilot 

Now why this pilot didn't go anywhere is beyond me. This could have worked.

This is a fun game. Sorry it didn't sell.

Super fun game. Can't believe it wasn't picked up.

Kevin O'Connell reunited with Bob Stewart and Announcer Johnny Gilbert since GO

The bonus game was taken right from another show Bob Stewart produced, "Three On a Match", which aired on NBC from 1971 to 1974.

it's so weird to see this and know that Kevin now does the weather forecast for the NBC affiliate in Buffalo, NY

I see one of the stage managers is Doug Quick. He, later, moved to Goodson-Todman, fulfiill- ing the same role, on 'TPIR.' He, once, made an appearance, when one of the "Super Ball" game balls became lodged in the board.

Nathan Cook died the following year, of a severe allergic reaction to penicillin. Wow.

Main game: quite clever. Bonus game: quite stupid.

Lol @ Johnny Carson! Even after the Match Game era, gsme shows can still be played for laughs!

Very odd choices on the bonus round. In both cases they had revealed the first two words of a phrase and had 3 shots to catch the last word, but decided to go back instead after missing once or twice. For example, the contestant is 1/2 to win when Custer's|Last|Lady/Day is on the board if he spends the last 40 on the third column. By choosing to go back, he must match Lady or Day, which is 2/3, and then he's 2/3 to get the first word, so he's only 4/9 by going back. It seems like the best strategy, assuming you can always recognize the matches, is to start by making a pick in column 3, then moving to 2, and then 1, moving back only if you hit the 3 limit. By my calculations the contestant would be 2/3 to win this way.

I didn't know Kevin O'Connell did THIS game show!!! I know he did the GO game!! :0 :0 ;) ;)

I like the wrong answer on Henry the Eighth. Considering Teresa was working for that, uh, wrong answer at the time, I can understand her laughter there.

kevin oconnell from GO

They should show the entire board, after the contestant wins their money. I think most people playing along at home, would like to know if their choices were correct.

Easter Bunny?! Doesn't the Easter bunny know, that Easter is already over?

Cute game, I'll admit that.

That Dolly Parton one I would have said "Big Puppies".

does Nathan Cook look like Michael Carrington from Think Fast

Wouldn't Sony Pictures Television own this?

That motion picture company is still around.

Reminds me of "Match Game".

Why do you say that for? We got women around here!

This show remind me a little bit of body language and match game and pyramid too

@ 3:09 is the scary part of the subject, it’s MGM. And the sentence says “At the beginning of every movie, the lion roars”. And it’s still scary, and it gives you lots of nightmares.

"Peter Rabbit!" LMAO!! #ctfu
