I like reading TV Tropes as much as anyone, but given it's a mix of unconfirmed "facts" and opinions, it can be taken with a grain of salt - at least Wikipedia has some form of checking on what's submitted. Here's an example from the MG/HS page:
--- Quote ---No OSHA Compliance: Compared to every other run of Squares, the board was actually the least safe, considering the second and third rows would be wheeled in behind the Match Game panel.
--- End quote ---
There's virtually no chance anyone on the planet can confirm this - so why make such a statement?
JMFabiano:
Forgive me if someone beat me to this, but we have a St. Patrick's Day marathon. And among others, we're finally getting Norma Brown on Buzzr.

The Whoopi Squares were in 2 parts - the bottom 6 squares as one piece, and the top 3 as another. Perhaps the other runs worked that way as well. I'm sure our amateur inspector at TV Tropes would take issue with that.

I'm about ready to start a TV Tropes Is Full of Crap thread somewhere. I found this today on the Match Game page:
--- Quote ---Some of the more attractive female stars, including [Fannie] Flagg, also wore rather revealing clothing that was only just enough for modesty's sake.

Seriously?
