Hosted by Chuck Woolery, this long-running NBC game show was loosely based on the board game of the same name. Current Scrabble Sprint champion, John Heaner(?), has won 9 sprints so far. He is shooting for his 10th to win $40,000 and retire as champion. Can he do it?
Also, it's the last day of the Home Viewer Sweepstakes. The correct word is HAMBURGER.

Chuck was absolutely right - it was ridiculous that they constantly used uncommonly used letters for stoppers as the contestants would instantly know that they pulled letters that were no good. I'm surprised that more people didn't do the fake guess/pass over the stopper routine over the years.

Remember, once you pick tiles, you have to use one before you can guess again.

SCRABBLE is My All Time Favorite Game Show!

Which makes it a shame that Hasbro felt the need to destroy it with Scrabble Showdown.

John Heaner did brilliant. 😀👍👍👍👍👍

@psychopathyoutubeemployees280 11 месяцев назад

He's the best Scrabble champion to make it to the cap, even if it was the stupid "champion never plays the Scrabble Crossword ever again" format. On the bright side, at least it wasn't Scrabble Showdown with Justin Willman.

Great show. But who has La Trice's Second day and the full Andre Francois Jean Dupuy episodes?

Wait... doesn't John get $500 for buzzing in on the blue square?

What's that beeping at 3:16 ?

Ran out of time if they don't know the word. A time's up sound.

@@alexhoule1824 - Another thing to hate about those early Scrabbles. Annoying beeping sounds and/or buzzer sounds during the main game. Thank goodness that was eliminated when they self contained the episodes later on.

Appears to be from 1985, not 1986, probably late 1985 as they had a TofC in November 1985 featuring top Scrabble board game players vs. Scrabble game show top winners. John won his TofC and another $51,500 circa June 1986

@Mr. Rick Rhino C[& everybody else] here, yes, in year 1986, this "Scrabble" game show had Mr. Charles "Chuck" H. Woolery as its former host just as his previous studio announcer there was late Mr. Arthur W. Ferguson [though professionally known as "Charlie Tuna"]!

Champion John Heaner wins 10th match in Scrabble Sprint Bonus Round + $40,000 dollars!! He retires undefeated with grand total of $66,000 dollars!!

@HunterDillon95 Год назад

Actually no, he left with $40,000 flat. This was late in the first format where 5 Sprint wins augments a champ's winnings to $20,000, while 10 Sprint wins augments a champ's total winnings to $40,000.

John Herner came back in May 1986 for the Tournament of Champions edition of “Scrabble” and he won the cash. There was an episode where John was a contestant in the “Tournament of Champions”, but sadly, the episode is still lost.
