[quote name=\'GSWitch\' date=\'Sep 9 2005, 11:40 AM\']Back in the late 70's, Bob Barker had a contestant from Hot Springs, Arkansas. He asked her if she watches TPIR, and says they don't have that show in Hot Springs.
And in September 1980, Houston joined that unfortunate list! After 8 years, KHOU knocked off a classic to have a syndicated talk show called Hour Magazine. The 2nd worst programming decision Houston ever made. And for Houston game show fans, they were stuck with the "BC" networks (ABC/NBC).
What did that cost Houstonians? The debut of (Family Feud end theme)
GRAND GAME! & Samoan Pauline being the first $10,000 winner who picked up & chased Bob Barker around.
KHOU welcomed back Bob Barker in September 1982.
PS: The #1 worst programming decision...KPRC yanking Classic Concentration (for no reason) to replace that with Santa Barbara! A soap in the morning, ridiculous!
