Thanks for the knowledge, Chad! Time to get back to my ‘70s TTTT fix!

While watching the most recent episodes of Pop Culture J! on Prime Video, I discovered that Prime Video has a few new UK and Australian game options to watch on the streamer. They include ...

-- The current incarnation of Aussie DOND
-- The first three seasons of ITV's "Limitless Win" with Ant & Dec
-- Episodes from the first three seasons of Britain's "Eggheads" from the 2000s, as well as early episodes of "Celebrity Eggheads."

Tapped into the first episode of LW, and even though I'm not a fan of shows with a plethora of suspenseful pauses:

1) The pauses for this particular UK show seem to be noticibly shorter than most of your average US shows.

2)  Dang, it's a fun show to watch, and very challenging as well. It would be nice to see a US version, but I'd be very afraid  of what they'd do to it in the states with choice of host(s), pacing and/or the overall Americanized format of the show.

Family Feud Classics on Roku has added some Dawson 94 episodes.  Caught a Carol Burnett/Betty White episode in late night tonight.

I wouldn't be surprised if those are the only episodes from that run in rotation on there.
Buzzr has run them multiple times for specials and they're being aired again for Winning Women this weekend.

I watched a couple episodes, and it got old for me pretty quick, but I did enjoy the concept well enough. And, I mean, Ant and Dec.

Make no mistake, the US would absolutely MUTILATE that show. And Bert Kreischer or whatever flavor of the month they got in there is no Ant and Dec.
