This review is from: Game Show Moments Gone Bananas (DVD)

Having seen more than half of these shows when the originally aired and loved the old formats of those classic Game Shows - this 'clip'/'highlight' type show has a lot to offer.

There are 8 segments (episodes) on this DVD and it is a collection of the TV Show that originally aired in syndication with host Ben Stein.

Ben does a great dead pan delivery of the intros for some of the funniest moments on Game Shows. From The Dating Game, Password, The Price Is Right, Family Fued, What's My Line, The Newlywed Game and many more. He also hosts small segments of his own version of games from 'Beat The Clock' that have hysterical prizes for the winners. (And they are REAL prizes too!)

Sprinkled throughout are guest appearances by various celebrities (past and present) with the various TOP TEN lists of funniest bloopers, flubs and show flaws.

For the price this DVD is defiantely worth it. There are no notable special features - but you will find yourself laughing outloud. Take this one home with you! 6-8-10

5.0 out of 5 stars Good mix of clips, October 19, 2009

This review is from: Game Show Moments Gone Bananas (DVD)

This set includes five shows on a single disc, not two discs as stated on the cover. Shows from the 50s are covered as well as more recent shows. Ben Stein talks in a monotone voice, but that's just how he talks. This has to be one of the best game show blooper collections ever put out. A good collection for almost anyone to have, especially game show fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for all game show lovers!, January 5, 2009

This review is from: Game Show Moments Gone Bananas (DVD)

This DVD includes five episodes of the show. It's tons of fun. My only criticism is that there is too much chatter from Ben Stein and not enough funny clips.

The price is excellent for such a great collection of clips. Note that it is a single DVD, not 2 DVDs as stated in the product description.
