The Joker's Wild Categories from 1977-1986

This home version had better be Windows 7 compatible for those kinds of questions.

It's not a computer game it's just a game that comes in a box just like the home versions of both pressman's and tyco games wheel of fortune and jeopardy! games just like the milton bradley and pressman's home versions of family feud just like the milton bradley and endless games version of the price is right game (my only favorite the 2nd edition from endless games) and many other box versions of some tv game show games.

Will there be room inside the box for an inflatable Jack Barry? I hope so.

Well, I don't know why not. There was an inflatable Lyle Bellamy in the home version to Beat The Devil.

Hold the phone, now I'm confused. How can there be an inflatable Pat Finn? You said the 1977-1986 version....Pat Finn came in 1990.

I had the inflatable Jack Barry....It was defective. His head swelled to 3 times the size of the rest of his body.

In the game industry, we have a name for bugs like that. They're classified as "As Designed."

I'll go off the board and take "Remedial English" for $50...

My Richard Dawson and Bob Barker infatables were a little harder to deal with....Those heads swelled to *10* times...

At least the Dawson one didn't insult you every time you ate a hamburger...

My Bob Barker inflatable couldn't keep itself off of my mannequins. Must have been the static electricity.

Not as displeased as I am that there's not to be an inflatable Jack Barry inside the box.
Every time I go to a Jack-In-The-Box I'll be reminded of the fact that there's no Jack in your box.
And you have the indignity to be displeased with us. Pot, kettle, black, baby cakes. I pity your phase.

[SRIV94]

We help those who help themselves.

The nerve...

Amidst all the jokes, Matt O. provided a link to clips from the show. If you didn't bother to watch the clips, you have no right to whine about no one helping. Besides, the categories were mostly generic anyways (Animals, Fairy Tales, Headlines, etc.). You can't expect people to do all your legwork, then get annoyed when people tell you to put in a little effort yourself. A Youtube search for "The Joker's Wild 1978" takes all of 15 seconds, and you could probably find at least 10-12 categories* in just one episode. Want another tip? Look up "Tic Tac Dough" or "Bullseye"...a lot of the same material. You're welcome.

*I can't remember, was it 5 or 6 categories per game? I need someone to tell me even though I could look on Youtube.

/I'm actually at work and can't watch on Youtube
