I love game shows. For as long as I can remember, I've watched them, and it's not hard to be excited with a contestant when he/she wins big.

Has anyone wanted to be on a game show, been on one already, or just likes them in general? I have thought about on either The Price is Right and/or Jeopardy. It's hard to get on both, really! But I will try in the future.

Yes yes yes! Particularly like it when late night cable stations show reruns of old shows. Very addictive!

I love Jeopardy. It is the game show that my whole family watches. The rest of the family enjoys a lot of the other game shows but the only other one that I really enjoy is Wheel of Fortune.

Although I rarely watch it, I've always loved Jeopardy. It's especially refreshing in these days of trash TV where everybody screws everyone else to see a show where the contestants are almost always intelligent, well spoken, formally dressed and classy and the host is impartial yet at the same time hoping for the contestants to win. I would love to be on that show but it would obviously never happen. Those are the kind of people I wish I could meet in real life!

$25,000 PYRAMID!

I want the theme song as my ringtone.

(Warning: it WILL get stuck in your head.)

Always loved JEOPARDY! and WHEEL OF FORTUNE. Anyone remember CONCENTRATION?

Right now, I actually really like FAMILY FEUD. Trying to guess "the most popular answer" is an interesting social exercise.

I also like the classic game shows........ they seem to be just as fun to me, as the modern ones.

Oh MAN!! Love SOO many game shows! My all-time favourites are Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy!, Who Wants to be a Millionaire, and Lingo. There was also a contest to reveal Canada's Smartest Person, which was done via game show. Too bad it could only air once - that was a really good show!!

To our American WPers: Do you watch GSN? I sure do. It's one reason I wake up at 6 in the morning my time, to watch Press Your Luck.

Occasionally. I like FAMILY FEUD and the original PYRAMID games. (I actually haven't caught the newest version yet.)
