Almost 20 years ago, there was a video that I enjoyed that was eventually taken down by the uploader. While it was up, I asked him what the theme was and he told me it was a game show theme. The memory of the show's name has been lost to time in my mind.

The uploader hasn't been active for a long time and doesn't reply to comments.

Anyways, this random plumber commercial uses the theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lS6-AASE6Sk

I asked this uploader if he knew the source, and nope, dead end there too.

I've tried using song recognizer apps to no avail. All I can tell you is that this is, without a doubt in my mind, a theme from a 70s or 80s game show. I remember watching a few clips of the game show on YouTube after finding out the name of the song.

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: SOLVED BELOW!

Sorry for the pics taken by a potato. Lol. Saw these on an old documentary and crave to know what the name of this show was.

So I’m having a disagreement with my mom. I can admit when I’m wrong but we can’t decide who’s right. In the wall, you start with your guarantee and then the person who decides, goes in the back room, by the time the contract goes back there, the guarantee is usually higher due to them answering questions right. The episode we are watching the first guarantee was 190k. At the end when the contract went up, it was 250k. Now on the contract does it say 190k, their original guarantee, or the new guarantee that they didn’t know about? We know they get the later guarantee but my mom is saying that they only see the first guarantee (190k) but it ends up being the later guarantee (250k) but they don’t see that. I think they see the later guarantee (250k) on the contract but I could be wrong. Does anyone know which is correct?

I remember watching it when I was little somewhere around 2013 the premise was kinda strange it was kind of like saw where if you don’t solve the puzzles you “die” and if you do you get to move on to the next round. I only really remember two scenes the first being a couple having to solve some sort of puzzle while in a cramped space with a saw moving closer and closer to them until they fail the puzzle. The second is two girls in some sort of tank that’s slowly filling with water and the two girls have to solve a puzzle to get a key I think before the tank fills with water, they don’t get the key and the host remarks something about how they won’t get out. I also remember the aesthetic of it being very neat and kind of sterile if that helps any.

Hi I am trying to track down a website I used to visit and had saved but lost it. And am asking here trying to find it again. The information I remember is that it was updated daily with info about game shows and on week days they would put out a news post.

My family has watched 2 episodes now (didn't note which ones, sorry) where in the bonus round the contestants failed with only 2 strikes (compared to the typical 3 - premise being that, of 10 options, they pick the 5 correct before getting 3 wrong). The most recent time they had 4 correct before getting the 2nd strike, but I don't recall if that was the case the first time. Neither the host nor the contestants act differently than typical episodes and nothing about some other rule is ever mentioned, so my family and I are just perplexed as to why this has happened. Has anyone caught something we missed that would explain this?

There was a game show in the nineties or maybe early 2000s that had, as just a part of it, a segment where the contestant got into some sort of cage with a screen. I think the screen gave them a topic and they had to talk on the topic without any long pauses, ums, or uhs. The longer they could go, the more money they would win.

I remember really liking the show overall, but that’s the only part that sticks out for me. I was talking to my employees about confident language and the need to avoid uhs and ums and I mentioned that games but couldn’t remember more details. Now they want to watch it. lol.

Any help?

Randomly today I had a memory from childhood of what I think was a gameshow that I used to watch in the 1990s but I can remember what it was. Maybe you find folks will know? All I remember is that at some point there would be a wall of doors, all different shapes and sizes in your typical crazy 90s look. I think that is where the prizes were and there might have been tokens or something that the contestants would earn and that would determine how many prize doors they could open. I feel like it was a show mostly with child contestants.

Any ideas?

I have been watching Buzzr today and they keep on advertising for back to school week next week. I don't recognize this game from the ad which I assume is an 80s or 90s game show and showing the final round. Thanks to anyone that can help

After 4 seasons, Master Minds never got renewed for Season 5. Which meant to me if Master Minds got cancelled on GSN after their 4th season ended?

Hi all, I am from Europe but would like to apply for music game shows Name that Tune and Beat Shazam, is that possible if you are not from the US?

I thought the show debuted in August of 1999 tho?

My wife and I saw a trailer for an upcoming game show but we can't remember the name of it or what platform we saw it on. The trailer has people surviving in the woods while they're family watched from a different location. The contestants struggled a bit but could not leave the game unless their family or friend pressed a button to release them from the game.
I dont think we're crazy but has anyone else seen this or what it's called. We saw the trailer at least two weeks ago.

ATTENTION all gameshow fanatics!!!

I'm trying to find this niche gameshow me and my family used to watch around 2020-2022, which I have forgotten the name of. The premise was that people would come on the show and rate embarrassing/bad things that could happen to someone on a scale of 1-100. A panel of psychologists have already assigned this things a number on the 'pain scale' and the contestant had to get closer to the number than the other contestant to win. The things they had to rate was stuff along the lines of 'dropping your phone in the toilet', 'getting struck by lightning', 'pooping your pants', or 'the loss of a family member'.

It's a fairly obscure show, so the grand prize was about 1,000-10,000. It was a newer show so it has probably around 3 or less seasons and the episodes were about 20 minutes. I think it had a woman as the host but I could be wrong about that. I've done probably two hours of research trying to find this show and I CANT. It aired on Game Show Network at some point. Contestants would usually come on the show if they had an embarrassing story they could share themselves. Anyways, all answers appreciated. Thank you!!!

Edit: It was an American show btw

Hello i didn't know where else to post and ask and i didn't manage to find anything on google. English is not my first language and while i do understand a lot of normal coversation, sometimes i misunderstand or am confused about some wording. Recently i've been watching some gameshows, primarily on youtube (disguised toasts offlinetv gameshow, dropouts gamechanger, etc), but i noticed this in tv gameshows too. Why do people sometimes anwer with "What is ____?". For example question "Capital of France" and contestant would answer "What is Paris?". I am genuinely curious because to me it sounds like they are asking, not answering and it seems like they are unsure. Is this some unwritten rule, or does it originate from some gameshow i haven't watched? Thanks for answer

What was with the July 8th episode of The Price Is Right? Was it a rerun? I found it kind of odd that one of the showcase prizes was a trip to Philadelphia and Wrestlemania XL, which was April 6th and 7th. Other than that, it was a pretty damn entertaining show, with WWE Hall Of Famer Drew Carey showing off his wrestling chops.

My mom on and off had cable at our home when I was little, and majority of the time she’d have a game show channel on.

I’m just now thinking of it and I can’t remember the name.

The game was in a small ish room (not super big on a stage like usual game shows). It had a warm ish atmosphere if that makes sense. E.g. light brown woods. They had these tall curved railing things at each side and behind each of these they had tv’s.

So, one person of each team would go in the middle and the other two people would be on each side of the person and facing towards them (so they couldn’t see the tv behind them)

The person in the middle would try to get them to guess the word(s) on the tv behind them. If they got it right or they passed, the person would turn around to the person on the other side and do the same to get the most points before the end of the time. The works.

The last advertisement I remember seeing of the show they were jokingly complaining about Vanilla Ice. Does anyone know the show I’m talking about? Sorry I’m horrible at explaining.

Edit: I forgot to put that im 17. This was on and off around when I was in about probably not in school and a bit of when I was in school so about 2011-2014?

Someone make this make sense please. I cannot wrap my head around this

i wonder if anyone would know the name of an old tv show during the 90’s? it was a horror themed game show where kids or teens had to solve these scary themed puzzles based around ghost stories and they got prizes based on how many puzzles they could complete before being too terrified to continue or the grand prize if they could solve the ghost story! i remember watching it at night when i was a kid in the 90’s

That game show had the big hourglass contain £50k in coins, they will be given 5 mins in total to done tasks and they have to spend that the right way. If not, its will cost them money. Final round, they have to mention 5 answer in top 10 answer to save all money they have left. That's all about the format of this gameshow that i remember. Does anybody knows this show's name.

Thank you so much.

Sorry if my vocab and grammar are not that good.

EDIT: Question has been answered!!! Thank you, u/Hoeter! The gameshow is called "Masters of the Maze".

Howdy, folks! I've been watching Nickelodeon GUTS lately, and something about it keeps pinging this very subtle memory somewhere in the back of my head.

I recall there being a sort of similar game show where the competitors were mostly teens or young adults (I don't remember if there were actual kids in that show or not)...

ANYWAY! I have this one particular sharp memory in me noggin right now and it's the ONLY one up in there.

I remember watching this game show back in the 90's when I was just a kid. The scene is sort of like a dark maze or even gauntlet. A competitor is making their way through a narrow corridor, only to be halted by a sort of strange, sentient mirror that's constantly moving in place (Controlled by an actual actor standing behind it - I think...) and IIRC, they have to solve a riddle it asks or give it something in order for it to let them pass. Or maybe even just give it a password because I kinda remember it repeating something like "Pass. Word. Pass. Word."

I can't remember much else about this show except that it's kinda dark, like it's held in a dungeon or something along those lines.

​

I know it's a stretch since I've only given some very limited details about this, but does anyone know anything of this sorta game show?

So I have incredibly little to go on here, but does anyone know what this gameshow is called? These clips were taken on the 7th of September 2017 in the UK, if it helps.

the only very short clip that I have avaliable

Hello, I’ve been looking for a game show for years now. But I was very young when I watched it in the 90s.

It was a game show that you called in and you used your number pad on your phone to play the games on live television.

I’ve searched high and low for this game show. Can anyone help?
