Tell us what your 3 favorite game shows are and why.


1) Jeopardy! it's a quintessential, barebones, barely-any-frills trivia game that really is a pure joy to watch. It won't ever be the same without Uncle Alex, but it's cemented itself as a stalwart of American game shows.

2) The Chase. It's the UK version of Jeopardy, in terms of game enjoyment and format strength. 

3) Taskmaster. It's just fun. It's never the same show twice.

Price is Right will always be the greatest gameshow of all time but I also like Let's Make a Deal, Taskmaster, 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, and Pointless.

good question, bc there's a lot of good ones out there.


i think if i had to say a fav rn, it'd be press your luck (both versions), by far, just because of how funny the whammies are, how intense the game can get sometimes (especially things like matthew's "record" game or cathy & lori's spin war), and just how fun it is to watch multiple episodes back-to-back

1. Figure It Out (1997-2013) <—— they actually dipped for several years then came back. 

 Because it was just cool seeing kids come on tv showing the world what weird talent they can do/done. The fact that they would pick kids in the audience too. Plus Seeing cast members from my favorite live action Nick shows get slimed was priceless.


2. What Would You Do?? (1991-1993)

If anyone remembers this show you are a real one!! Marc Summers as the host CLASSIC. Nickelodeon was just everything in the 90s and 2000s.


3. Deal or No Deal (2005-2019)

Come on now how can you not love this game. That game you could walked away with 1 penny or 1 million dollars by just picking the right case or take the offer the banker gives you. Watching that game as a teenager really showed me how greed is the root of all evil not money. They need to bring this game back.
