The Wild, Wonderful World of Game Shows (Part Two) w/ Bob Boden, Rich Brown and Adam Nedeff
In this conclusion of a two-part episode, producer-executive Bob Boden, author-historian Adam Nedeff and comedian-producer (and this week's co-host) Rich Brown once again join Frank for a loving and laugh-filled look back at eight-plus decades of TV game shows. In this episode, the boys break down the Quiz Show Scandals of the 1950s, reveal which defunct game show they'd bring back and share personal (and painful) memories of near-appearances on "Jeopardy!", "Wheel of Fortune" and "Tic Tac Dough." Also, Bob praises Ken Jennings, Adam (finally) wins over Betty White, Frank wins big at his high school Gong Show and Rich sits down with Tiny Tim, Brother Theodore and Pat McCormick. PLUS: "I Survived a Japanese Game Show"! Rod Serling hosts "Liar's Club"! Adam West takes a dive! The Feds vs. Morty Seinfeld! And Gilbert Gottfried creates an unforgettable "Hollywood Squares" moment!
