Here's a Full Episode of the Short-Lived Game Show Bargain Hunters.

[@good03boy]

This show was ABC's last daytime game show until the Match Game revival in 1990.

[@mitchellries256]

Outside of Family Feud, ABC just had bad luck with Daytime game shows.

@@mitchellries256 All of the popular daytime game shows were on CBS and NBC.

[@megamanj2004X]

@@mitchellries256 Part of it was because abc was too focused on their soap operas (and later talk shows) abc whatever sitcom rerun slop they threw out there to care for their game shows. Funny enough that their last successful daytime game show was Family Feud. Every new daytime game show abc debuted after Family Feud lasted 1 year or less.

[@good03boy]

@@megamanj2004X All Star Blitz, Bruce Forsyth's Hot Streak, Double Talk, this show, and Match Game (Ross Shafer version) all were on less than a year. Even Trivia Trap that gave ABC another game show other than Family Feud in 1984-85 lasted 6 months before it was replaced by ASB.

@@megamanj2004X Now, they're down to just General Hospital. Does America care for anymore "daytime" stuff? No.

Was the show taped at ABC Television in Hollywood?

That music in the bonus round is quite catchy. If I were to arrange prizes in the bonus round and the winner’s adventure prize is Japan... prizes to choose from, Painting of a family of Hokkaido dogs, cast-iron cookware, wood-cutting equipment, Sega plush collection, Custom-made kimonos, Manga collection of Dragon Ball and One Piece, and Atelier of Copic Markers.

Spin Off of The Price is Right

[@jonathanashbeck3740]

Except the show was a Merrill Heater show.

Peter Tomarken did not like this show. I think he said it was a piece of s###.

[@davebevpeffer4176]

And yet, he had no trouble accepting the money.

[@mitchellries256]

In all fairness he didn't know he'd dislike it when he started hosting it.

[@rodney1279TheFlip]

@@mitchellries256 That is fair

[@JimmySand9]

You wouldn't know it watching. Peter was a pro-fessional.

[@rodney1279TheFlip]

@@JimmySand9 Yes he was. ☹️. I miss him and Ivana Trump

[@zacheryalderton7721]

i never been to switzerland

[@mitchellries256]

I didn't think the show was that bad although I showed it to my mother who loves game shows and she wasn't impressed.

[@jonathanashbeck3740]

Peter Tomarken hated this show himself.

[@MaskingAutism88]

I unfortunately know about this show no thanks to articles about Erik Mokracek (dude who's like Chris Chan only sadder and repetitive)

[@Scottwilkie18]

Train wreak

[@jamesmoss3424]

I wish this game show was a hit and RIP Peter tomarken he was a good game show host.

[@ClassixSuperRetroPlayhouse]

I AGREE

[@SanFran51]

Peter Tomarken hated the show. He needed work after Press Your Luck got cancelled.

[@mitchellries256]

@@SanFran51 What was it about the show that he didn't like.

[@funhousecollector587]

Hi, I am a collector of game show clips, I have many Fun house Uk clips that are not available online, I would love to be able to exchange with you, it would be great. Greetings, I await a response.

[@ClassixSuperRetroPlayhouse]

I WISH THIS GAME SHOW LASTED LONGER

[@SanFran51]

THIS SHOW SUCKS.

[@zacheryalderton6741]

I loved it
