Very Entertaining

I've always enjoyed behind-the-scenes exposes such as this, and having grown up watching most of these game shows, I found it quite entertaining. How the shows got their beginnings, back stories on hosts and celebrities and seeing them as they are today are all covered. I would have happily watch more had it been available.

Not sure why the rating is so low. This was pretty darn good.

The film covered a wide range of shows, a few of which I had never even heard of. However, being a kid of the 70s, some of the footage from that time was great to see.

Could they, perhaps, have gone more in depth? I guess, but then the film would've been three hours long. I think they used the time wisely, as I was never bored.

Great job!

Good times!

Really entertaining and interesting. I was surprised though that given the focus on jeopardy, there was no mention of the original show before trebek and the doors that would drop down with the answers.

Sycophantic and boring.

While I did learn a few things from this movie, most of the time was spent on people saying how great everyone else is or was. Trebek couldn't be more boring in his quest to kiss butt. At one point he even talks to Vanna White about quilting. The only people who were remotely interesting were Drew Carey and Regis Philbin. Which is amazing because they were never interesting before. To top it off, there is absolutely no mention of Press Your Luck. Unless game shows are your entire life, you probably won't enjoy this.

Good stuff!

Solid little documentary giving insight into the history of game shows in America. If you're something of a game show buff or just a casual fan, fret not, there's something here for everyone. Very insightful!

Errores
The show uses New York baseball as a backdrop to introduce the first televised game show in 1941. Alex Trebek describes fans in Yankee Stadium on a sweltering hot day watching Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak unfold. However, the video footage shows Washington Senators pitcher Red Anderson giving up the hit to DiMaggio that broke the record previously established by George Sisler. However, the narrative is incorrect - the game being shown did not take place in Yankee Stadium, but in Griffith Stadium in Washington DC on June 29, 1941. The TV show in question ("Truth or Consequences") was broadcast two days later on July 1, 1941. The Yankees were at home then but were playing the Boston Red Sox.
