[quote name=\'Jamey Greek\' date=\'Mar 3 2004, 08:45 AM\'] I've noticed on David Livingston's website that Jay Wolpert bought the rights to Monopoly before Merv Griffin produced for ABC. Could anyone confirm this? and, When was the pilot supposed to be shot, and what network was it for? and who hosted? [/quote]
I've not heard about a pilot for a TV version of MOnopoly before the one done in 1988 with Peter Tomarken as host, and Griffin/King World packaged that one. Wolpert did do a Trivial Pursuit pilot c. 1987, as was discussed here a few months back.
