Welcome to the boards Chris. Game shows & I go all the way back to 1970, at least that's the earliest recollection I have of game shows.
I'll be sure to check those sites out too, thanks for that info.
LMAD was indeed a classic. I remember watching it back in the 70s on ABC, and then the 80s version, which was really well done. I loved the sound effect used for Door #4, it was a riot, and the way the camera would go crazy, etc. The only thing I didn't like about Door #4 was someone who did a deal previously could be selected again to play it, which I thought was a bit unfair, and the fact that it seemed like it popped up on every show. It was better when it was 1-3 times per week, and when you least expected it, it would sound off. I loved that Dealer Wheel, that was a classic.
I'd love to see elements of the old 60s & 70s LMAD, and 80s LMAD combined into a show. I think an hour long show would not work, but it might be fun as an experiment.
Again Chris, welcome.
Bill
