With the threads on the "hit the ground running" classics (not to be confused with Jim Peck hitting the ground) and TTTT's troubled 2K remake being Poundstoned to death, I had this question as I drifted off last night:
Of all the classic, long-running game shows (I'll say more than 2 yrs. for a reasonable run) the only one I can think of that was not remade — well, the remake never made network or syndicated air — was What's My Line?
All the others, from To Tell The Truth to Pyramid, have been remade (except for Wheel of Fortune, which is still on an extension of its original run, heaven help us). And by "remake" I mean a pause of a year or three and a new series of the show; I'm not counting WML and TTTT going immediately to syndication.
Can anyone else think of a long-running game other than WML that did not have a remake?
