game shows " on the road "
« on: November 06, 2007, 12:47:15 AM »
Besides " Wheel of Fortune ", " Jeopardy! ", " The Price Is Right ", " Family Feud ", " Hollywood Squares ", and
" Win, Lose, or Draw ", what other game shows have gone " on the road " and taped episodes from remote locations?

Thanks,

"You Don't Say" did some shows from Cypress Gardens. CBS "Password" and "$10,000 Pyramid" traveled from NYC to LA for special weeks, but you couldn't really tell until they mentioned it.

Syndicated Millionaire did weeks from Walt Disney World's "Play IT" attraction.

The final syndie season (1976-77) originated from Las Vegas, so I wouldn't necessarily count that as "going on remote."

...unless you're technically oriented (different studio acoustics for the "Password" eps).

"What's My Line" and "I've Got a Secret" also traveled during the 50s.  I think WML's remote came from L.A., with a totally different panel; and "Secret" did a show in Vegas (and IIRC, one from L.A., on the same West Coast swing).

Might have been "mentioned" before...

(And yes, I'm aware that they're technically NOT unnecessary in the original post, however those extra spaces and wrong comma placements drive me "nuts.")

ObGameShow: While it's been mentioned, I believe the weekend airings of Combs Feud are the episodes from Opryland, which I remember watching vividly when I was younger. "Wow, the board is all electronic, no way!"

"IGAS" also did a show from Cypress Gardens in Florida in its original run.

And the original "Supermarket Sweep" did originate from a different supermarket every week.  The show it morphed into, "Honeymoon Race," originated at the same Florida mall.

And "Born Lucky" originated from the Sherman Oaks Galleria center court, IIRC.

Born Lucky was done at a few malls in Southern CA, one of which was the Glendale Galleria.  (Why do I remember this crap from 15 years ago?)

Perhaps I thought Sherman Oaks because it's referred to in Moon Zappa's song "Valley Girl" and shown in the movie of the same name, like fer sure.

I object to having perfectly valid comma placements lumped in with the rest of that. :-P

Deal or No Deal did one segment of an episode from some lady's front lawn.

Would it have killed them to do the whole episode from there?

I wonder how many of these actually added enjoyment for the home viewer as opposed to being an annoying contrivance. I have seen the "What's My Line" Hollywood appearance, and that was cool because, as was said, the panel was totally different. Jack Lemmon was in Cerf's chair for one thing. But TPIR in Vegas? Big deal.

"Win Ben Stein's Money" did do a week at the beach. Maybe they had bikini babes to make it worthwhile.
