That’s a VERY young Brad Garrett!
No, TT went off the air by that time. Super Password would have been the other game show.
I apologize. After looking at Wikipedia. Tattletales’ last day was June 1, 1984. So I guess it was a right answer. Super Password premiered in September. Again, I apologize for that glaring error.
June 1, 1984: the same day my stepsister was born!
They got 7 straight answers without a miss. If only the “7 Straight Jackpot” was still installed.
Guess the producers felt that the stars couldn’t have that kind of run, so they scraped it.
The last 7 straight jackpot was won just in time, on the final civilian teams episode.
The following Monday, Body Language premiered in Tattletales’ old slot.
I don’t think it was an issue of it being impossible, it just seemed less fair with celebrities involved. Imagine the 7-Straight Jackpot was in play for this question…That contestant would be getting a cash bonus for giving a whopping TWO answers. The celebrities actually did most of the work.
And on the flip side of the coin, a very deserving contestant could get screwed out of it by being paired with two idiots (which I guess is what you were thinking, too).
Everytime I tell someone that there was a game show called Hot Potato, no one I mean no one remembers the show. I used to watch this in re-runs on USA in the morning right before another forgotten game show called Face The Music. Thanks for the memories.
I truly remember this show. I remember those reruns on USA back in 1990. Surprisingly, I was born in October 1984, almost four months after its cancellation. This episode was 28 days out from cancellation.
Wow this show rocks. I was nine years old when it was cancelled. They should bring it back, though.
What a question, what a question. That was one of those questions that was more factual than a survey, making it easier to obtain the seven-straight jackpot… if it was still there. It was another easy one that would set up a chance for a total wipeout here and it did. Nipsey & Christopher knew their stuff; with Nipsey you can’t go wrong. Brad & Marcia seemed like good players but I don’t know; congrats on Brad for his TV debut. A 5 star question for a 2 star Celebrity Hot Potato.
nipsey russell is the bomb…
he was on alot of the celebrity panel
gameshows…….
Billy Hufsey did a game show? Now he can be seen on Confessions of a Teen Idol on VH-1.
As I recall, this episode was taped June 1, 1984 but Body Language already hit the airwaves before this week of episodes made it to air, so this clip here was from the middle of June 1984.
Nipsey was the host of “Your Number’s Up”.
Here’s A Question For You:Of The 10 Network Game Shows In That Question Which 3 Did Bill Cullen Host?
I can’t believe none of them came up with The Price Is Right.
Hot Potato, $25,000 Pyramid, and The Price is Right
Back when daytime game shows ruled the airwaves although they are making a slight comeback with “Let’s Make a Deal” now.
