On the the show, he always said "Who WANTS to be a Millionaire". Emphasis on "wants". I could see emphasising "who" or "millionaire" but "wants" always struck me as odd.
I'm not familiar with his body of work. Did he have other weird pronunciation quirks like this? Whenever I did happen to catch an interview or something of him, he always seemed...off.
Hello, all! I made a web-browser app of CLASSIC CONCENTRATION just for fun. It's vs. player or vs. computer. If anyone remembers that show and wants to experience it, download link included: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/y36gudwsrwrkq86xa5zes/CONCENTRATION_AddRebus.zip?rlkey=kbn46w2pp1l0i6ha4q12ubamd&st=5i6503sm&dl=1
What's the community take on this show? This is now on BUZZR every day, and I'd never really watched it before, but my god. I thought Wheel of Fortune contestants were the dumbest gameshow contestants ever, but now I've changed my mind.
Just now I was watching this, and some of the clues just had my jaw on the floor.
"Sean Connery" - my clue would be "first James Bond...Scotsman". The contestant gave some 15 second rambling clue.
"New York Yankees" - my clue would be "Babe Ruth...baseball team". The contestant's was "not Chicago".
Names were a hard category on other shows like Password and Pyramid, where you could only give one-word clues at a time, but if you're allowed to use phrases, it's not that hard.
Or been a studio audience member? If so, what was it like?
Just five years ago, Greg Shahade admits that he probably couldn’t have identified the Mona Lisa from her signature enigmatic smile. Fast forward a few years and he’s now a two-time Jeopardy! champion, clinching his first victory on Monday and ending a 31-game win streak from New Jersey’s Jamie Ding.
But aside from disrupting Ding’s historic run with a now-encyclopedic trivia knowledge, Shahade is making headlines for a more personal reason: the new champ is polyamorous. In his Jeopardy! game and his numerous other competitive pursuits (chess and CrossFit among them), Shahade is all about control. He’s meticulous in studying and strategy, then plays a killer game based on his plan. But in his personal life, Shahade practices “relationship anarchy,” in which his relationships don’t have a structure.
“I just don’t like control and telling people what they can and can’t do,” he said. “I want everyone I’m close to, I want them to do the things that make them happy all the time. If they meet somebody they really like and they want to spend time with that person, that’s fine with me.”
In an interview with Playboy, Shahade, whose two-day winnings so far total $44,000, spoke about the stamina that competitive chess requires, what it was like to hear that he had beat Ding, and the tension between control in his game and lack of it in love.

The new live version in 2 days. Judge lied saying time ran out and said one word was 2 words. A commercial cut into and pre-emptied a 250 point çompetition. Trucks outside can be heard passing by. A do-over occured leaving the last 30 seconds of the final 10k competition cut off. Jaime no longer gives fun sarcastic intros.
The prizes still suck. "A stay" at a hotel in Jamaica. No specifics. A 2 day "stay" 3 day"...too embarrassed to say. Pay your own airfare, food, extra days at the hotel.
Don't forget consolation prizes other than "stays" are pots and pans s or lobster gift certificates.
Always wondered if they’re as good as they look on TV.
The wife and I are big fans of the 1970s Match Game version with Gene Rayburn. Her 60th birthday is coming up and would love to get a game-used answer card for her. One from Brett Somers, Charles Nelson Reilly, or any other regular guest, (signed preferably) but will take what I can get. Can't find any on ebay. Any idea where I can find one to purchase?? Thanks!

I’m not sure if this is allowed when the show starts filming, but I was wondering if people wanted to have some place to talk about 25WOL and if they hear any updates in the casting process. They said at boot-camp they would start filming on May 1 so some people may have already been reached out to, but I thought this could be a good place for everyone to get to know each other!
3 full episodes of Chuck Woolery's reality series from 2003.
I love hosting game nights, and I’ve run a lot of Jeopardy-style games before, but I wanted something closer to Wheel of Fortune.
Most of the options I found were either console games without much customization, DIY setups, or PowerPoint templates, which meant a lot of manual work. So I built Spinorama, a web game where the host runs everything from one screen.
It makes hosting and playing super easy. Scores update automatically, most actions have keyboard shortcuts, and voice prompts help keep the game moving. You can also create your own custom games, categories, and puzzles.

Would love any feedback!
