$100,000 pyramid-‘vines in a forest’

My mom was watching an episode of pyramid, and during the winners circle one of the categories was ‘things that get tangled’, one person said ‘vines in a forest’ and that was deemed as too descriptive, which caused the player to not earn the final prize. I can’t find a clip of this and I wasn’t able to see the episode, so I may have gotten some details wrong. Does anyone know what episode this was? What do you think of this?

25 words or less: my take

Where can I start? I am not a fan of this show. The host isn’t my cup of tea, the concept is repetitive and boring, and the celebrities are so painfully… celebrity like. What do you think of this show?

I can’t find this show any help

Does anywhere here recognize a show where it was a performance done by differing groups where the focus was on practical effects and illusions all most. It was a contest and something’s I remember where there were a bunch of different teams like Clownsnotbombs and cubematrix and each week there performances would be based on different genres like the first week was you could pick a movie genre and the first group did like a horror story. I also am confident in saying it start in like 2014 to like 2018 definitely that time frame.

If anyone can help find the name of this show much appreciated

The Quiz With Balls- anyone watching?

Wife and I have been watching this one as well as 1% Club lately and cringeworthy innuendos aside I have to say I really like it. It's got a fun Family Feud vibe with some pretty surprisingly deep pulls for questions and of course a slapstick element with what amounts to a dunk tank for wrong answers. I definitely recommend checking it out.

Replica Lingo Balls

OK, Reddit, I need your help. Does anyone know where I could order and make my own version of Lingo balls from the Chuck Woolery era of Lingo? I don't want to make exact copies - I am more focused on getting the correct material and size balls, and doing customizations based on what I want, not just doing a complete rip of the show. Any advice or links would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

TPIR Rundown Shown in 1985

Was on YouTube for a completely different reason when I received suggested video notification about an outrageous bid from episode 5875 in 1985.

The bid was amusing - $12000 on a motorcycle. They only had four numbers for the display, which caused chaos.

That chaos brought Barker back to the producers area which showed a more interesting area, the rundown for the show.

You can clearly see the what games they were going to play that day.

It’s always fascinating to see anything BTS like this. There is so much “dirty” work behind the glitz and glamour that we see on our screens.

Split Second - Why the long pause between questions in bonus round?

Durning the bonus round, John Michael Higgins takes a longer than needed pause between questions. Anyone else notice this and have any ideas as to why? Seems like the pauses are several seconds taking up much needed time.

Enough Newlywed!!

I used to love watching Buzzr late at night, but now it’s decided to inflict TWO HOURS of the Gary Kroeger “Newlywed Game” upon its viewers. Don’t get me wrong—I actually think the Kroeger version does a good job of speeding up gameplay and introducing new topics—but I find these couples (and the game overall) to be incredible bores.

What would you like to see overnight on Buzzr? I would love to have some of the shorter-lasting shows like the Narz “Now You See It” or, one of my personal favorites, the Cullen “Blockbusters.”

What’s your favorite game show set ever? Why?

My favorite would have to be Million Dollar Password hosted by Regis Philbin because it’s the flashiest I’ve ever seen.

Looking for specific Russian Roulette episode

Hi! Just as the title says, I’m looking for an episode of the early 2000’s game show Russian Roulette. My aunt was in Episode 105 that was released on 12/03/02 titled Cowen/Michelle/Larry/Fran. I know it’s a long shot, but I’m hoping to surprise her with it for her birthday if anyone has it.

Thanks :)

WB (CW?) memory/trivia game show with “big brotheresque” aspect and “rings”?

Trying to remember this show, I think it was early 2000s on the CW or WB. A handful of people would live in a house studying and then competing on stage to trivia/memory contests. I wanna say there was rings involved also, either in the title or as a lifeline/motif.

Thoughts on "Beat the Bridge"

So I saw a couple of Episode of the new GSN game show, Beat the Bridge. I thought the concept was pretty interesting to being like a SAT test. I thought it was weird to see no audience on this game show so it sounded really quiet. I'm not a fan of the "bonus" round. I saw a team lost $10k back to $1k despite playing near perfectly. I'm also not a fan of the host but that is GSN hiring random d list actors as Game show hosts. Any other thoughts?

Big Shoes To Fill

Random thought…

People say to themselves and each other, when an established individual passes the baton to a successor before retiring or stepping down from whatever it is they've done for the past while that said successor has big shoes to fill, no one will fill the first person's shoes etc. we heard and said this sort of thing when Drew Carrie succeeded Bob Barker on "The Price Is Right," when Ken jennings and Mayim Bialik became joint permanent hosts of "Jeopardy!" following Alex Trebek's death and the rotation of guest hosts until Bialic was let go, and people have been saying it all over again ever since Pat Sajak announced last summer that the 2023/24 season would be his last hosting "Wheel of Fortune," and that Ryan Seacrest Would be the new host.

Hell, there are endless examples I could use regarding that statement and any/every variation there of, as I'm sure it goes all the way back to when the second generation of humanity succeeded the first.

Thing is, why should the second person even try to wear the first person's shoes, much less fill them? They have their own. Is it just us being sentimental? Or, are there really people out there who think successors should actually try to fill their predecessors' shoes?
