Game show themes used on other game shows

Cullen's Pass The Buck used the beginning of Geoff Edwards' Jackpot theme.

Huh? Those are two different pieces.

Pretty sure he's referring to the intro cue (before the name of the show was said), rather than the main theme.

Ah gotcha. Carry on.

Right you are!

Most of the time, the music cues would bounce between shows by the same producer (Chuck Barris' cues are a great example). 

One of the few that bucked that trend was the one prize cue used on B&E's "Break The Bank", which was also used as a prize description cue during the Alan Thicke music era of "Wheel Of Fortune".

Syndie WML used the "He Said, She Said" theme for the "Who's Who" segment in its final two years.

Three on a Match used the music played under the prize descriptions from Cullen's TPiR. Of course, this show shares it's theme with Personality.

And then there's the Cobert-penned Cullen TPIR theme, which rested for a year or two ... and then became the theme for Ed McMahon's Snap Judgment.

A slightly obvious, but missing entry: Break the Bank's theme was also used as the theme for TJW's $1,000,000 tournament.

In the mid-90s, Shop Til You Drop used a modified version of Quicksilver's theme during stunts.

Ian S., LMAD84 used the actual Split Second theme, and not just the intro. I seem to remember it when Brian or Dean would talk about the car offered on the Door #4 Deal Wheel.

Does Blankety Blanks' theme showing up on Double Talk or Shoot for the Stars' theme on Jackpot count?

For pilot themes being used as show themes, Lucky Numbers showed up on High Rollers in 1987.

Yes, TANLMAD used the actual Split Second theme for about the first half of the first season, before using exclusively the intro for cars. The end stinger was used for Door #4 and The Big Deal amount reveal for most of the series.  Pretty much most of Hatos-Hall's other shows themes eventually became cues on LMAD by the 1976-1977 season, when the show moved permanently to Las Vegas and Ivan Ditmars retired.  Even the LMAD '80 theme was used a bumper cue for TANLMAD.

The Play the Percentages theme was also used for Juvenile Jury starring Nipsey Russell.
Plus, the contestant/celebrity intro music from To Say The Least was sometimes used as prize description music on (The New) High Rollers.

A slightly obvious, but missing entry

There will usually be missing entries within threads like these; not necessarily obvious because sometimes people innocently forget. I suspect none of the posters who preceded you meant to offend you by leaving out Mr. Levin's composition.
