When I was a very little boy (circa 1962), they did at least a week of “Jan Murray’s Charge Account” on the beach. I think it was in Miami.

Win Ben Stein's Money shot spring break themed episode(s) at Venice Beach at least once.  One of those can be found on YouTube.

Check this out! https://www.ebay.com/itm/SG233-35mm-Slides-1961-Group-of-14-Florida-Garry-Moore-Show-Ive-Got-a-Secret/332575537173?hash=item4d6f0bf815:g:52AAAOSwARtam9A8

That's extraordinary, especially since GSN has never aired it, despite not having a cigarette sponsor!  Trying to learn more about it now.
This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.

I did some research myself as well. They taped two episodes of IGAS (as well as one episode of Garry's variety show) at the Florida Citrus Exposition in Lakeland, Florida, in March 1961. They apparently aired on March 22 and 29 (though some sources say March 15 and 22.) Don Murray and Debbie Reynolds were the celebrity guests, respectively. All the regular panelists made it except Bill. Peter Lawford filled in on one show and Durward Kirby on the other.

Based on this:

It would appear that the 22nd and the 29th is correct.  Somewhat extraordinary that they're not part of the surviving package, or at least haven't aired on GSN or Buzzr.

Win, Lose or Draw also did some beach-side episodes in Hawaii.

They loved going outside - they also recorded at Disney World in Orlando and in Central Park.
And on Navy Pier in Chicago.

  • Just leave the set; that’d be terrific.

Didn't Davidson Squares have a beach week?
From the VERY FIRST POST in the thread:
Quote from: ed1202
First thing that came to my mind was Davidson Hollywood Squares that had a series of episodes beach-side. Others?

Bumping because I just found an episode of WBSM from the UCLA campus.

Am I misremembering, or did Make Me Laugh also do outdoor episodes during the Comedy Central run?

Also...how about some of the Wheel outdoor locations? Dallas at the Coca-Cola Starplex and the Hawaii eps. come to mind.

How about "The Dating Game" doing a few weeks in Hawaii very early on in the run?
