Classic Game Shows & More (2009) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The good news is that this set has a lot of wonderful material, and for the price it seems like a terrific deal. The bad news is that the price is low for a reason: The actual DVDs don't work well at all. Technologically, it's a nightmare, in fact. You can't access certain shows on the menu; some stop in the middle, skip, or pause indefinitely. Often you can't even access the menus, and the discs make odd whirring sounds in the DVD player. More good news: Amazon was quite prompt and nice about returning my first set and sending another set. More bad news: The same problems occur on the replacement. At this point I really don't want to go through another iteration of returning and replacing, and then being disappointed again. I will say that the shows I was able to watch were terrific. It's sad that quality companies don't want to release quality classic game-show DVDs.

Biography - TV Game Shows (A&E DVD Archives) (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was a bit disappointed in this video, because it spent too much (and shouldn't have given any) time on the gross game shows of today where people eat bugs, pee to "tinkle" a bell, and shows just how far game shows, TV, and the public have sunk in the past 50 years.
The parts about the great game shows, their hosts, and prizes were interesting, and fun to watch.

For decades, we've watched countless contestants on TV answer trivia, perform stunts, and challenge lady luck. We've jumped for joy when they won and were crushed when they lost. Many a host has mesmerized us with their ear-to-ear grins, humorous banter, and exceedingly charming personalities. The games may have gotten more elaborate, the ideas more inventive, and the stakes higher, but one thing hasn't changed...TV Game Shows are as popular as ever. This feature-length quirky special doesn't just look at the history of TV Game Shows, it celebrates the entire genre in a fun, light-hearted trip down memory lane. Filled with hilarious clips, amusing interviews, and hilarious commentary, it's fast paced, campy, and funny.
