I Love The '80s 3-D
« on: September 16, 2005, 12:38:19 AM »
Yes, third time's DEFINITELY a charm when VH1 brings us "I Love the '80s 3-D" starting October 25. Let's hope and pray that Thom McKee's and Michael Larson's respective reigns of terror on Tic Tac Dough and Press Your Luck will FINALLY be featured!!

Of course, some of the non-game show stuff will be highlighted as well including Circus of the Stars, Donahue (finally!), and Bloopers and Practical Jokes (aka the original Punk'd). I guess unlike E!, VH1 does have the money to pay for the clips.

If any game show is featured on I Love the 80's, it's gonna be Double Dare, and only because it started a huge craze of kids' game shows in the late 80's.

So help me, if they don't do Pitfall, I'm strapping on some cement shoes.

Will that be Tylenol or Advil? ;-)

GSN could do a similar series concerning game shows.  Just get some unemployed stand up comics and social commentators to recite some made-up reminiscences:

"We were sitting around waiting for the premiere of 'Double Talk' with Henry Polic II, and when the show started, the first thing that I said was 'They're using the Blankety Blanks theme!  THEY'RE USING THE FREAKING BLANKETY BLANKS THEME!"

And of course, PO'B was covering sports at CBS during much of the '80s.

I said that Bloopers and Practical Jokes will be featured third time around; when it was Super Bloopers and New Practical Jokes in the early '90s, Alex Trebek on one of the episodes got pranked during a fake "Trebekie" convention. Trebekie...Trekkie...get it??

BTW, you're wrong. Wheel was 1987.

And also, didn't Pat O'Brien make an appearance on at least one of the I Love The '90s shows? I swear I saw him.

And of course, everybody's favorite "Bert & Burt" show was shown in the 1988 episode of the original run.
