I have a few:
Tic Tac Dough- Use the 90 version as a template. Get rid of the damned rapping dragon and dragon slayer. The dragon is still there and pops up more to make the game more difficult. The pot for the main game is 1000 per square and 2500 per win, going to the player that wins 2 games first.
Bonus Round- Again. No more rapping dragon or dragon slayer. However, multiple dragons appear. A max of three. If you hit one, it's all over. However, you have an option to stop after three turns and take the cash. If you do, it is added to your overall total. Top prize is 50,000 dollars.
Other stuff- Jeopardy rule. Champion stays on until defeated.
Music- Use a rockish remake if possible of the 90s theme. And of course, keep the "In a Moment" spiel.
Host- I'm gonna go with a newbie. Kat Dennings or Kat Deeley. As I said before, we need more female hosts. Besides, both can be a good fit.
Announcer- If not chosen, Kat Deeley. Her British accent is just sexy enough to get people to watch.

There pretty much is a revival of it called "Funny You Should Ask". The only thing missing is the tic-tac-toe board.

After TBS Wrapped Up Season 1 of The Joker's Wild, They Should Renew for Season 2 but TBS could replace Drop The Mic hosted by Method Man for a Revival of Tic Tac Dough on TBS! Host: Mark L. Wahlberg Announcer: Liz Hernandez Network: TBS (However this show along with The Joker's Wild (with host Snoop Dogg) could expand to 5-a week on TBS if this happens) Taping Location: Hollywood Center Studios (Just like they taped the 1990 Revival on Syndication hosted by Patrick "YOU WIN!" Wayne and The Joker's Wild revival hosted by Snoop Dogg on TBS) Music: A Remix of the 1978-1986 Theme originally by Hal Hidey
Opening Spiel (if Jeannie takes over the Opening Credits for Season 2 of The Joker's Wild with Snoop Dogg on TBS so Liz can do it for Tic Tac Dough): "From Hollywood, it's everybody's game of strategy, knowledge & fun. It's The All-New Tic Tac Dough! And now, here's our host, Mark L. Wahlberg! The goal of the game was to complete a line of three X or O markers on a standard tic-tac-toe board (with the reigning champion always mounting X's). Each of the nine spaces on the gameboard featured a category. Contestants alternated choosing a category and answering a general interest or trivia question in that category. If they were correct, they earned an X or O in that square and $250 to the Pot; otherwise, it remained unclaimed. The center square, being of the most strategic importance, involved a two-part question, with the contestant given ten seconds to think of the two answers needed to win the square and add $500 to the pot. After each question, the categories shuffled into different positions. If at any point in a game it became impossible for either contestant to win with a line (a so-called "cat game"), the match was declared a draw and a new game started. The process continued until the deadlock was broken, however long it took to do so. This meant that a match could take multiple episodes to complete, which happened quite often. Tic-Tac-Dough used a rollover format to enable this to take place smoothly. This meant that a match could start at any point in an episode, continue until time was called, and then resume play on the next episode where the game began with the same categories in play. Special Categories: Auction – Contestants were read a question with multiple answers. Contestants took turns bidding on how many correct answers they could name until either a contestant deferred to his opponent or opted to name all the answers on the list. If the winning bidder fulfilled the bid, that contestant won the box. If not, the other contestant only needed to give one additional correct answer to win the box. Bonus Category – A three-part question was asked, which, if answered correctly, gave the contestant another turn. The categories were shuffled before the extra turn Challenge Category – The contestant who selected this category could answer the question or challenge their opponent to answer. If the opponent challenged gives a wrong answer, the contestant who selected the category won the box, and vice versa. Double or Nothing – If the contestant answered the question correctly, they could either keep the box or try to earn a second box. If unsuccessful, the contestant lost both boxes. Later, contestants were required to take the risk. When this category was selected, the board did not shuffle after the first question was answered correctly. It's a Dilemma – The contestant heard the question and could ask for up to five clues; however, the opponent decided who answered the question. Jump-In Who?/What?/Where? – Contestants used the buzzers in front of them to ring-in and answer the question. A correct answer won the box, but an incorrect answer gave the other contestant a chance to win the box by hearing the entire question. Number Please – The contestants were asked a question with a numerical answer. The contestant who picked the category guessed the answer and the opponent guessed if the correct answer was higher or lower. If the opponent was correct, they won the box, otherwise the first contestant won. An exact guess of the number won the box automatically for the first contestant. Opponent's Choice – The contestant answered a question from one of two categories which were selected for them by the opponent. Play or Pass – The contestant had the option to skip the first question and answer a second. Secret Category – Appeared in the bottom center at the start. The topic of the Secret Category was only announced by the host after it was selected. A correct answer to that category doubled the value of the pot. Seesaw – A question with multiple answers was read to both contestants. Contestants alternated giving correct answers until one contestant gave a wrong answer, repeated an answer, or could not think of an answer and the opponent won the box, unless the opponent could not answer either, which left the box unclaimed. The box could also be won by giving the last correct answer. Showdown – Contestants were asked a two-part question, using the buzzers to ring-in. The first contestant to ring-in answered one part of the question. The other contestant answered second. If one contestant was right while the other was wrong, the contestant answering correctly won the box. Otherwise, additional questions were asked until the box was awarded in this manner. Take Two – The question had two clues. The contestant could answer after the first clue, but to receive the second clue he or she had to first give the opponent a chance to answer. Three to Win – A series of buzz-in questions was asked to both contestants, with the first to answer three correctly winning the box. Top Ten – A question with ranked answers was asked. The contestant who chose the higher-ranked answer won the box; however, if the first contestant gave the top-ranked answer, he/she automatically won the box. Trivia Dare – A question with three multiple-choice answers was asked. The contestant chose to answer first or defer to their opponent. Regardless of who started, if a contestant was incorrect, his/her opponent could choose from the remaining answers. If the opponent also guessed wrong, the box remained unclaimed. Bonus Round: On the syndicated run, the squares contained the words "TIC" and "TAC", and six dollar amounts: $500, $1,000, $1,500, $2,000, $3,000, $5,000. The remaining box concealed the dragon. The object was for the contestant to accumulate $10,000 or more. If successful, If successful, the contestant won the cash and a prize package that usually consisted of furniture, trips, jewelry, and/or appliances, totaling anywhere between $10,000 and $20,000. The contestant automatically won by uncovering "TIC" and "TAC" (at which point the contestant also had his/her cash total amended to $10,000). However, if the contestant found the dragon, the game ended and the contestant forfeited the prize package and the accumulated money. The contestant could stop at any time, take the money and forgo the prize package. Returning Champions: Contestants can stay on until they lose Verdict? |

As for My Revival of Split Second Host: Neil Patrick Harris Announcer: Jonathan Mangum Network: CBS Daytime (after TPIR with Drew Carey) Theme Music: The 1986 Version by Todd Thicke
Taping Location: Raleigh Studios in Hollywood (In which they tape Let's Make a Deal with Wayne Brady) Opening Spiel: (insert random question) You'll find out as one of these 3 contestants wins the chance to drive away with a brand new (insert car make here) in just a SPLIT SECOND!!! (lightning strikes) And now, here's the star of our show, NEIL PATRICK HARRIS! The host would ask a series of three-part questions. Most questions had three clues to three answers (one for each answer) appear on a monitor; some questions would require its three answers to fit under a specific subject, and one question each show would be dubbed the "Memory Buster" in which Neil gave a list of answers, but only three of them answer the question. The first player to buzz-in got a chance to answer first, second to buzz-in can answer second, and the slowest player answered last. In the event a contestant rang in too early before the clues were revealed, he/she was locked out and must answer last. Each time a contestant answered correctly, he/she won some money. The contestants score according to how many of them gave a correct answer. Here's how they score: Round 1 3 Players Correct: $100 2 Players Correct: $250 1 Player Correct: $500 (plus a prize) Round 2 3 Players Correct: $200 2 Players Correct: $500 1 Player Correct: $1,000 (plus a prize) The final round of the main game was always the Countdown Round. In this round the questions were the same as before except now when buzzing in, the contestant can give one, two or all three answers. For each time the player in control was right he/she gave another answer, but as soon as he/she missed, the other players had a chance to answer the remainder of the question according to how fast they buzzed in. The round is called the Countdown Round because in this round the contestants are no longer playing for money. They're trying to countdown to zero, for each correct answer counted down one towards zero. From where they must count down all depended on their final scores at the end of round two. The player with the highest score had the advantage of needing the fewest number of answers, the second-place player got the middle number, and the third-place player was in the disadvantage position, needing the most number of answers. 1st Place Scorer: 4 2nd Place Scorer: 5 3rd Place Scorer: 6 The first player to reach zero won the game. All three players kept the cash that they've won from the first two rounds but the winner of the game won the right to play for the Car. Bonus Round: The day's winner faced five cars. One of them was an active car (a car that would start), while the remaining four were disabled (they don't start). All the champion had to do was to pick the car that started., However the winner could eliminated up to three of the cars that DON'T go with the key by answering three 3-part questions perfectly. To help the player, all the questions use the same three answers, and each answer will only be used once. On the player's fourth win, one car is automatically eliminated and only two questions are asked and after the "bad cars" are eliminated, the champ chooses one of the remaining cars. If the key starts the car, he or she keeps the car and "retires along with the cash jackpot which started at $5,000 plus $1,000 for every day it's not won, If not, he or she gets a consolation prize package, depending on how many games the champ has won. Oh, yeah...if a player wins five games in a row, he or she automatically wins a car of his or her choice as well as the Jackpot. Verdict? |

Yep, Hip-Hop Music has changed since then so if TJW Returns for Season 2, The Devil Must Rap, Same goes for My TBS Tic Tac Dough Revival with the Resurrection of the Rapping Dragon (just like in the 1990 revival of Tic Tac Dough hosted by Patrick Wayne)
And for a Music Change on my TTD Revival: Get the 1990 Theme Back composed by the guy who composed the Theme to the Pink Panther, Henry Mancini!

@kaos: A Tic Tac Dough Revival on TBS will happen without the 1990 Theme and maybe we can get Mark & Liz to return since Make Me a Millionaire ended 8 years ago on Statewide Syndication in California by the California Lottery.
And In According to GSK involving The Joker's Wild: Jeannie Mai was supposed to have introduced Snoop Dogg at the top of each ep., but that did not work, but we should do that when The Joker's Wild starts season 2 on TBS if this happens and will be paired with my TTD Revival that I posted so it will air after The Joker's Wild on TBS as a replacement for Drop The Mic.
Now My Revival for Hot Streak
Host: Seth MacFarlane (He did voiced Peter Griffin on Family Guy but what about hosting a game show?)
Announcer: Bethany Zolt (She did announcing Miss USA and Miss Universe on FOX but why not a Primetime Game Show?)
Network: FOX (Thursday Nights after Beat Shazam)
Theme Music: Since Earth, Wind and Fire had Let's Groove for Beat Shazam, I'll Put In September (by Earth, Wind and Fire) for my Hot Streak Revival
Opening Spiel: Let's Meet Tonight's Stars on the Men's Team (insert 4 celebrities) and Tonight's Contestant (insert name) and on the Women's Team (same as Men's Team) and they are all here to play Seth MacFarlane's Hot Streak and here's your host, Seth MacFarlane
Two gender-specific teams of five contestants, one of which was a returning champion, each competed in a game of word association. The challengers, or winners of a coin toss in the case of two new teams, played first. In round one, the captain of the team in control chose one of two words presented by the host. The other four team members wore headphones to ensure they could not hear the word. Once a word was chosen, the team was given 40 seconds to communicate the word down the line. The team captain described the word to the second team member, who, after guessing the word, then did the same for the third team member. The process continued down the line until the team completed the transition down the line, time ran out, the team gave an illegal clue, repeated a key word, gestured or said the word (or a form of the word). The opposing team played the other word in the round.
In the second round, the next players in line became the captains and the team trailing after round one chose the first word. In rounds one and two, each successful transition was worth $1,000, for a maximum of $4,000 per round. The third and final round started with the trailing team, and each correct transition was worth $2,000, for a possible $8,000. The maximum grand total for a game was $16,000.
The team with the most money won the game and advanced to the bonus round. The Civilian Captains keep what they won in the game. If the game ended in a tie, the captain of the champion team was given one final word and opted to play or pass. The team that played the tie-breaker had to communicate the word down the line without faltering to win. If they were unable to do so, the other team won.
Bonus Round: The bonus round involved the members of the winning team trying to come up with words to describe certain people, places, or things.
For each subject, Forsyth would show the team captain the subject while his/her teammates were placed in isolation with headphones so they could not hear. The captain then came up with four words that he/she thought best described the subject. Once the captain came up with those four words, the rest of the team came out of isolation and were told the subject. Each of the other four players was given five seconds to guess them (twenty seconds in all). Each time the team came up with a word, it was worth $2,000. After the twenty seconds was up, a second subject was played for $3,000 per correct guess. Finally, a third subject was played and if the team came up with all four words their winnings were multiplied by five, for a potential $100,000. If the team could not come up with all four words for the third subject, they kept what they had won in the first two parts of the round.

And Now my Revival for Bullseye: Which is Another B&E Classic to TBS Host: George Gray (Former Host of the Syndicated Weakest Link & Current TPIR Announcer) Announcer: Dave Burchell (Even Better than Jay Stewart and Charlie O'Donnell for all those Old School Barry and Enright Crap when it aired on Syndication, 'nuf said) Network: TBS (Six Days a Week in a block that goes along with The Joker's Wild and Tic Tac Dough) Taping Location: CBS Television City (in Hollywood, CA in which the original version is taped during the Shows 2nd Season) Music: A Remix of "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" by Santa Esmeralda (which is also used as the Theme Music to the 1979 Pilot hosted by Jim Lange) Opening Spiel: "This is the television game in which daring determines the fate of the player. This is the game of strategy, luck and knowledge. This is Bullseye! Now, here's our host, George Gray!" Rules: Two contestants, one a returning champion, competed. The game began with the champion stopping three spinning windows, set up in a triangular fashion, by hitting a plunger in front of him/her. The top two windows contained eight different categories—four in each window—with dollar amounts ranging from $500 to $2,000, representing the value of each question in the category. The bottom window was the contract window, and displayed numbers from one to five as well as a bullseye. When the windows stopped spinning, the contestant chose either of the displayed categories, and had to fulfill the contract by correctly answering the number of questions indicated in the contract window. Each correct answer added the dollar value of the category to a pot. The bullseye represented an unlimited contract, which allowed the contestant who spun it to continue answering questions as long as he/she desired. If a contestant answered incorrectly at any point, the opponent was given a chance to take control of the contract with a right answer. An incorrect answer on a bullseye immediately ended the contract, but the opponent could still take control by giving the correct response. If both contestants missed the same question, it was thrown out and control reverted to the contestant who had originally tried to answer it. The contestant who completed the contract could choose to bank the money in the pot and give up control of the next spin to the opponent, or leave the money in the pot and spin again. The first contestant to bank $10,000 or more won the game. Contestants kept any money banked during a game, regardless of the outcome, However it will be a Best-of-3 Match, First Contestant to win 2 Games gets a chance to go to the Bonus Round Bonus Round: The champion advanced to play the bonus round, referred to as "Bonus Island." Once again, the object for the contestant was to use his/her plunger to stop the spinning windows. For this round, however, the windows contained various dollar amounts ($500-$1,000-$1,500). All three windows also contained bullseyes, and one contained a lightning bolt. The contestant's task was to spin three bullseyes, which resulted in an automatic win, or survive a particular number of spins without having the lightning appear. With each spin, whatever money the contestant accumulated was added to the pot for this round. Originally, if a bullseye appeared, the contestant had the option to freeze that window and put it out of play; this option was later removed and a window was automatically frozen after a bullseye appeared. A contestant could choose to stop at any time and keep the accumulated money, but if the lightning appeared, he/she lost the round and the money. The location of the lightning was not revealed until after the round was over, so the contestant had no way of knowing whether it had been put out of play behind a bullseye. Spinning three bullseyes awarded double the money in the pot, or $50,000 the contestant did so in a single spin. Surviving 7 spins awarded either $25,000 or the total amount in the pot, whichever was greater. The contestant also won a prize package, usually worth between $10,000-$20,000, by either spinning three bullseyes or surviving the required number of spins.

The Syndicated Game Show Click did ran from 1997-1999 on Syndication but they are returning for a Revival despite Ryan Seacrest joins Kelly Ripa on Live with Kelly and Ryan
Host: Ryan Seacrest
Announcer: Tony Pigg (He Never Announced a Game Show in his life, But he will do so since he did announced on Live with Kelly and Michael on Syndication and the Chew for ABC)
Network: ABC
Timeslot: Either Daytime (before Wheel of Fortune on Weekdays) or Once-a-Week Primetime Could air along with the $100,000 Pyramid (hosted by Michael Strahan), Celebrity Family Feud (with Steve Harvey) and Match Game (with Alec Baldwin)
Theme Music: Same as the 1997 Version composed by Steve Lindsey
Taping Location: ABC Television Center (New York, NY)
Opening Spiel: From New York, the entertainment capital of the world, and the birthplace of (insert fact here), it's time to play the return of Click! And now here is the master of the mouse, Ryan Seacrest!
Rules: Three teams (Green, Red, and Yellow) of two people played three rounds (referred to as "levels"), where the aim was to answer questions worth varying amounts of money.
In each round, the contestants stood at podiums facing a large video wall (which acted as a computer); each screen of that wall had an icon with a symbol representing a category on it. A flashing cursor would bounce around the board and stop when someone "clicked the mouse" (pushed down a large red button in the center of the podium at the central station, aka "The Motherboard"). A question was then read, and teams earned cash for correct answers.
Stations: Two main categories (called "Stations") were featured (one was "Website", the other "Chat Room"); regular general knowledge questions from specific categories would be answered at "The Motherboard", the station where teams would play the game.
Website Topics
Click Pix – A picture clue was given for a question.
Click Video – A video clue was given to the question.
Sound Bytes – Audio clues were used for questions.
Home Page – Identifying a topic from a series of clues, grouped into a "home page" format.
Chat Room
E-Mail – Identifying a famous person who wrote a fictional e-mail.
Spell Check – Choosing the correct spelling from searching for a misspelled word in a sentence.
Dictionary – Choosing the answer that best fits the definition of a given word, among a choice of three.
Funetics – Identifying license plate-type puzzles, (similar to that of Bumper Stumpers), or a word spelled phonetically.

Level 1: Each team took turns facing the computer. They each had 60 seconds to answer as many questions as possible. The value of the questions were $250, $500, $750 or $1000. One icon on the board was called "Double Click" (which was the show's logo appearing twice (similar to the "Daily Double" on Jeopardy!, which was also created by Merv Griffin)), where the team could wager their current score with a correct answer. A team would win $1000 if they had no money after a Double Click answer.
Level 2: Starting with the lowest-scoring team, each team kept control of the mouse as long as they answered questions correctly. If at any time they missed a question, the opposing teams at the main podiums could buzz in and steal control. Landing on a "Crash" meant a question was asked to the teams at the podiums for control. If neither team got the question right, the first team kept control. Question values were still worth anywhere from $250-$1000.
Level 3: Ryan now did the clicking, because all three teams had a chance to play every question. One member of each team stood at a different station while their partners remained at the podiums. After the station or category was chosen, the player at the appropriate place would hear the question and have a chance to answer for $1,000 to his/her team. A wrong answer meant that the players at the podiums would have a chance to buzz-in and take the money.
After several questions, an off-stage voice would then yell, "SWITCH! SWITCH! SWITCH!" Then the players would swap places with their teammates and more questions would be asked. Three switches took place during the round, and at the end of the round, the top scoring team won the game and played the bonus round. All three teams kept their money.
In case of a tie for first place, or a three-way tie at the end, one final question was asked, and the team who buzzed in with a correct answer moved on to the bonus round.
Bonus Round: In the bonus round, the winning team attempted to answer three questions within the time limit to win a $25,000 in cash. the team had 90 seconds to connect 4 in a row by going across, up and down or diagonally., Getting four in a row won the money, if not they get $500 for each correct answer.
