[quote name=\'geno57\' post=\'249558\' date=\'Oct 21 2010, 02:05 AM\']I just enjoyed the Seven Keys episode.  Had only seen one other episode, since I was around 6 years old.  Remember the music very well ... and anything hosted by Jack Narz was a pleasure to watch.[/quote]

Indeed. The earlier Narz hosting jobs were much different i think compared to those on NYSI , or was he changing with the times or the shows? He seemed to be more spontaneous during the home game segment. Mind you NYSI and Concentration were 10+ years later. Still great emcee and great voice too.

Wish i could say the same for the announcer. I don't think the voice was that bad just the timing and the delivery were just <insert word here>. I guess the regular announcer was off sick or something.

Watching Chain Reaction, and trying to decide which I like less: that the contestant only plays about a third of the game and can be at the mercy of the celebrity partners, or that you can win FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS and fail the end game.

Or 55 depending on whether or not the contestant was a woman. :)

Updates are happening today; received a job promotion this week so I've been spending the whole week in management training and adjusting to a whole new career path. Suffice it to say, time had been limited.

The Thanksgiving voting is going very well! If I were to end voting today, the following hosts would be featured on Turkey Day (in no particular order):
Jim Caldwell, Bob Eubanks, Bob Goen, Chuck Woolery, Jim Perry, Bob Barker, Jim MacKrell, Dennis James, Geoff Edwards....and Robert G. Lee.

So any fans of Cullen, The Narz Brothers, Wink et al better get on the ball.

Thanks to all that participated in the voting for the Thanksgiving VC feature. There's a tie for #10, so there will be 11 shows featured!
Starting at 10:00AM CST on Thanksgiving, 2 winning series' will be posted every hour on the hour, counting down from #10 to #1 of course.  

The whole lot of 11 episodes will be up through 11/30.

The countdown's started with Starcade & Moore TTTT, both of which tied for #10. Towards the middle of the show list, we've got a couple of surprise winners, some of which are shows I've never even played on the site before.

Enjoy!

Interesting choice at #5- and if I'm not mistaken, isn't that Shannon Elizabeth asking one of the questions in the 2nd round?

#10 - I think that may be the first time I've ever heard Bill Cullen make a joke about his physical condition.

BC: Would you be terribly embarrassed to walk alongside me?
#1: Well, it would depend on how much shorter than me you are.
BC: Well, that would depend on what foot I happen to be standing on at the time...

Just got done watching the stuff that was interesting, new, or whatever caught my fancy. I'll say this: I dig the pot format of Scrabble, because it puts a premium on being able to solve quickly, and not just when the right time comes. I'm not so fond of the spelling, because one of the crossword players got hosed by knowing the right answer but slipping up, and that looked really hinky.

Well, if you're doing a crossword puzzle or playing real Scrabble, spelling counts, so you'd better have the right letters in the right squares.

Of course, there's also the MOSQUITO clip....

While it's funny, it's also kinda sad when you realize the contestants only screwed up because the writers forgot the E. It's MOSQUITOES, so both contestants had a "Hey, that word was spelled incorrectly and it tripped me up!" case for S&P.

How did that end, by the way? Does anybody know if the show ever acknowledged this mistake, or brought back the losing contestant?

EDIT: Never mind. MOSQUITOS is in fact a proper plural.

It's also sad when one realizes a cursory glance at a dictionary reveals "mosquitos" as an acceptable spelling.

Not only that, but I don't think the show even used 10-letter words. So I doubt they'd make an exception when the dictionary, as you said, lists what the writers used as an alternate spelling.
"They're both Norman Jewison movies, Troy, but we did think of one Jew more famous than Tevye."
