Not going to happen any time soon, but my main wish is to have full episodes of TPIR with the very rare games (Shower Game, for instance) in them - for recapping purposes on the LiveJournal group.
... Read the first seven words of this post.

There's a fair amount of Lingo 1987-88 on YouTube already. And a lot of Wipeout 1988. And some Catch Phrase 1985, too. And a whole lot of High Rollers 1987. And so much Wheel of Fortune from the 1980s, you could spend hours watching it all. And even a little of an obscure show like 100K Fortune Hunt. I had never heard of it, but YouTube has. And on and on... Use the search box and type in the show name and year. Lots of stuff comes back. YouTube is a ready-made oldies channel. I've squandered a couple hundred hours (literally) on What's My Line, for instance. Sure, WML is almost complete on the site, which is more than you can say for most shows. But there are thousands of hours of many old game shows already available. |

I've really become a big fan of Jack Narz's Concentration now that Wink's YT channel has been sharing episodes. I'd love to see more of it.

I'm gonna try to be at least semi-realistic: - Press Your Luck: At least one full episode of the Australian and British versions. - The Price Is Right (US): The last brown-set show from August 1975; more of the circulating Kennedy/Davidson shows. - The Price Is Right (Aussie): The 1973 episode that pops up from time to time in retrospectives, as it so heavily resembles the American version at the time. - The (New) $100,000 Pyramid: More Season 2 shows from late 1991 (there used to be a bunch online, but not anymore). - Sale of the Century (US): The circulating 1986 syndicated episodes (only Curtis Warren's last Speed Round is online). - Sale of the Century (Aussie): The 1980 Pilot/Premiere (I've seen it touted as one or the other, but I'm pretty sure it's both) and 2001 Finale. - Supermarket Sweep (Aussie): At least one full episode. (The show ran two years as a daily series, and yet the only things that seem to be online are three promos.) - Temptation: The last taped US episode from 2008, and the last Aussie episode from 2009. - Trump Card: The 1991 Finale, if only for how frickin' awkward it must have been to not actually give away the $100,000 they'd been touting. - Wheel of Fortune (US): Master copy of Vanna's first permanent show from 1982, but especially the 1975 Premiere (which by all indication does exist). - La Roue Chanceuse (French-Canadian Wheel): Any full episodes, as it was clearly going for a "knock-off" version of the 1986-89 daytime set and theme (and "I'm A Wheel Watcher"!). - Het Rad Der Fortuin (Belgian Wheel): The intro and first round of a 1975 (yes, really!) episode surfaced back in November 2012, but I wouldn't mind seeing the full show. There's a fair amount of Lingo 1987-88 on YouTube already. Good to see one of my playlists is getting some love.  |

"Good to see one of my playlists is getting some love." You're welcome! YouTube is incredible. Scrounging around Google News today for some faux tweets for the blog, I came across a story about a local New Orleans quizzer from the 1990s called N.O. It Alls. I'd never heard of the show, but the story was a nice look back. So I went to YouTube and, sure enough, they had an episode. I'm starting to think that everything is on that site somewhere or other. By the way, if you're wondering what the show was like but don't want to watch the video, imagine Vanna turning the clues on Jeopardy. In fact, that might have been showrunner Brandon Tartikoff's idea. He did more famous things at NBC, of course. |

I'll add a few to the excellent suggestions above. Anything from the UK, but if I had to choose one show: Pointless. From the 1970s/1980, The New Treasure Hunt and Whew! Finally, in the pre-historic category: To Tell the Truth, preferably 1956-61 episodes featuring panelist Polly "I voted for #1 but I think it's #2" Bergen. And thanks to the uploaders for your time and effort |

Count me in as one of the people who would like to see episodes of Press Your Luck from Down Under. The reason why is because I would like to create board rotation files from the Australian version for PYL Expert Edition.

That Will Be Nice, I Hope that we can double for the Prize Rotation Files for a Kids Version of Press Your Luck, Speaking of Kids Shows how about more Fun House Episodes with JD Roth and Slime Time with Marty Cohen? |

Seeing these links reminded me that "lottery game shows" might not have been the best idea for a Video Archive, mainly because they (especially the "pick a box for money" ones) all get a bit dull after a while, especially if you binge-watch 'em. Even the shows modeled on Cash Tornado, which reinvented what it meant to be a lottery game show, can get kinda dull if you watch more than a few episodes at a time.
Don't get me wrong, I have a soft spot for some of them (particularly Flamingo Fortune's first format and The Big Spin pre-2004) and I'm still gonna keep at it (partly since I've found quite a few videos that have vague titles and hence would be difficult to find), but they're only really good in small doses if you're in the right mood.
Take it from me -- do not binge-watch these things.
