"Fun House" 80's TV Game Show - Full Episode (1989)

[@SeptemberDay]

This was the show that came on right before the school bus arrived. I always timed myself by it. Had my Honeycomb cereal eaten, Jem and the Holograms lunch box packed, and Trapper Keeper all ready to go by the end credits ❤

[@Mogwai06]

I remember getting ready for school really fast when I was super young too, trying to get to catch a minute or two before having to head out for the day. I loved this show. Even got the board games as a bday gift once if i remember right.

[@privateprivate1865]

It always came on after school in my area

[@sarahfinefrock282]

I was on this show. It aired Feb 1990 - it was Canada-themed. Haven't seen the episode in so many years. We won!

[@valkyrie8614]

Wow. I always wanted to be on this. What did you win and how was the experience

[@kevinshaw8889]

Is your episode on YOuTube?

[@ravenbaa7989]

Proof

[@ThunderFist1978]

Very cool! Which team were you on?

[@elizabethw.454]

Did you go on the slide?

[@kagemaru259]

I haven’t watched this in 35 years. Every day after school back in 1989.

[@trevortomei2793]

Same

[@fatimamohsin5226]

What a show it was! Me and my siblings used to record each episode and rewatched them again and again on our VCR. Brought back so many memories!😢

[@aisyahmaharani39]

Kesini karena mau nostalgia masa kecil..Miss this show so much..

[@starlite025]

I dreamed of being on this show as a kid

[@ti3125]

Same.

[@boskostoybox]

I dreamed of the cheerleaders

[@reneastle8447]

Had the show continued, you would've been in the show yourself.

[@xhibitplus]

😂 me too while I Africa

[@calebhodson7421]

Oh my gosh me too. That show was awesome

[@BabyLouie22]

I use to wear Gitano clothes with my British Knights and my Swatch Watch. I was very stylish as an 80s kid, 90s teen.

[@WadeLife]

I faintly remember this program.. Thanks for this awesome upload

[@Slightly_Sadistic]

I used to watch this all the time.

[@lesliehowardmorrison8947]

I remember this show! Watching it again 20-some-odd years later I'm struck by how quickly it was played. Can you imagine this taking place today?... The show would be two hours long!

[@nicksullivan4994]

I wish They would bring back Fun House and air it on Nickelodeon!😂🤣❤️📺🎶

[@stevensuarez4843]

Oh, that's not gonna happen. Their heart belongs to Double Dare.

[@cutemimi25]

It would more likely be on Disney Channel cause Nickelodeon already has Double Dare.

[@blackcruze1379]

@@cutemimi25 use to be on right after school on our independent station which is now a CW affiliate

[@jamesstuart5877]

Ironically, the show was reworked by producers Stone and Stanley and became "Legends of the Hidden Temple."

[@necogreendragon]

Those prizes. Wow. I remember being so excited about this show.

[@privateprivate1865]

I always wanted to win the scooters they had

[@izwanlavio]

One of my favourite TV shows back in the 80's.....and yes..I'm no longer young. - From Malaysia-

[@IkanGelamaKuning]

Sama la kite. Tv3 kan dulu.

[@ryuhayabusa6776]

Nice seeing this show again. Thanks.

[@LukeMaynard]

I literally just watched another episode on here, with the same Fun House layout. Not only did they snag a huge number of tags, but the prizes seem exponentially better on this episode than on others around the same time. 24 concert tickets in Los Angeles today alone would be the equivalent of winning a new car once you factor in the inflation. What a haul!

[@Dee73kz]

Thanks for the upload! I remember watching this show when I was in grade 6 after I got home from school!!

[@matthewfarmer2520]

Same, i was in the 6 grade as well, im 48 now.

[@DrummingWriterTrekfan84]

"my favorite place is home! I always feel really safe there." Lol!! 😂😂 Jd is always the funniest guy!!

[@alfonsogreen2722]

Great game show. Never missed a single episode

[@nyc78]

That set was nuts!

[@J_PIK]

I was too busy playing Contra and Bionic Commando instead of watching this show. Glad I can watch it now.

[@T2Runner]

Throw in some Gradius, Kid Icarus, Karnov, Castlevania, etc. Still watched this show though whenever I could. 😅

[@freakyfornash]

@@T2Runner And Double Dragon too!

[@BokhariTube]

I remember watching this in Pakistan as a Kid.....Use to love this show

[@xhibitplus]

Watched in Africa Ghana

[@angeleyes79gs]

I would play sick to stay home and watch this...love it..❤...Best times

[@brothergaryii]

This is one of those heartbreaking episodes where a team didn't find the "Power Prize", despite winning 5/6 prizes.

[@drinkinglotsofsoda]

The girl told her partner when he came back down where the power prize was @ 20:41

[@retroflashbackdude]

If there’s a bright side, they did win a water park vacation in Palm Springs

[@ChalkiePerfect]

Don’t cry for these kids. They got three grand worth of junk, and that’s in 1989 dollars. That’s easily a quarter mil today.

[@knowpassword]

I use to watch this show.. I loved it 😆. I always thought if I was on this show I’d go for all the cash tags! 👍

[@ReflectionOfPerfection]

My mother just screamed when I played this clip. I used to watch this as a 3 year old haha

[@patrickc3419]

Lots of nostalgic memories watching these!

[@Lambdamale.]

Time flies. I loved this show. All of these people are almost 50, and the models must be in their mid fifties. Hang on to your childhood if youre young and reading this. Before long, youll grow up, and all your elders will have passed away.

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

We had fun house in the uk Too. Format was a little different though. But still similar. Ours had an awesome theme tune. Real ear worm.😂

[@RegalMermaid]

Came here for this comment. I only know of the UK version (and the twins 🤣). Which is odd bc I was in the US during this filming and never grew up watching the UK version. My mind is blown that the US had it first but the UK aired for longer.

[@Equint77]

Jesus… this used to come on weekday mornings and i’d catch the eps before going to school. New York wpix channel 11

[@kaifreeman294]

Being a former New Yorker, I remember that coming on there as well but in the afternoon's though "after Double Dare". However you might be right though because when I would come home from school I would watch "Duck Tale's", "Chip & Dale's Rescue Ranger's", "Tale's Spin" and then "Darkwing Duck" from 3-5pm on WPIX 11. Then on that same channel @ 5pm, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle's" would come on because it ran in the same time slot as "Different Stroke's" but that show (DS) was on Fox 5. Aw the good ol' day's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Equint77]

@@kaifreeman294 you might be right and that they may have moved fun house to weekday afternoons. Feels like it aired like 4 or 5pm but it was definitely after school. All before disney afternoon took over those timeslots.

[@josephcalderon906]

I lived in brooklyn as a kid,and remember watching this at the late weekday afternoons after coming home from school on channel 11 WPIX-TV.

[@drummingdanny84]

Me, too. I lived in Westchester County and would fight with my mother not to watch "Oprah".

[@Equint77]

@@josephcalderon906 same. I grew up in brooklyn too. I think the show originally started in the morning then got moved to the afternoon.

[@hollymeredith9998]

Can't believe took me so long to view these 😊

[@NotHalfBadNomad]

“What’s your favorite place you’ve ever visited in the US?” “Cabo San Lucas!” 😂

[@jmhayes7407]

Good grief. I used to watch this after school. There was literally nothing else to watch. Crazy

[@MrSamer83]

Double Dare at 4 and of course Fun House at 430 everyday when I was 5 or 6 years old. I miss those times of entertainment!!!

[@djlamar2]

Loved this gameshow as a kid

[@theWoodrow321]

Use to watch this early in the morning along with TMNT before the school bus would come.

[@T2Runner]

TMNT! That 80s version is still the best TMNT aired.

[@juschill7]

This is awesome lol! I remember this episode! Who remembers Zoobilie Zoo!??

[@andrewrockwell1086]

My favorite part is that the little girl's favorite place in the USA is Cabo San Lucas (Mexico).

[@jessyleppert2]

I like how J.D. Roth plugged WBFF FOX 45 at the beginning of the first stunt, now it's the home of Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!

[@yudhiroots]

TV game show ini mengingatkan masa saya sekolah dasar di Indonesia.. ❤❤❤

I wanted to go on this show so bad...I liked it better than Double Dare..

[@ProfessorRoy82]

Cabo San Lucas? This was back when it was a part of the US I guess.

[@roaddjack2404]

the cheerleader twins are really pretty

[@releasethedogs]

They are like 12 years old you weirdo.

[@VirginiaTombstoneRevival]

I would have loved to have been on this and Double Dare as a kid. It's so frustrating seeing how slow most of the kids on those shows were. Hahah

[@RG7621]

I never knew there was a U.S version of Fun House. I used to watch the U.K version when I was very young.

[@nms87]

Same! Though it makes total sense, it's a very US-style show & explains the twins dressed as cheerleaders lol 🇬🇧✌🏾

[@UrsusTheodorusdoesGameShows]

There was also a college version titled "College Mad House." In that version, the power prize could only be won if the entire mad house was cleared of all tags.

[@jessyleppert2]

Stone-Stanley created Fun House, Legends of The Hidden Temple and Shop Til You Drop and all 3 bonus rounds were similar

[@jamesstuart5877]

After Stanley left in 2005, Stone (and Co.) continued on and adapted Tokyo Broadcasting's "Brain Survivor" as "Brainsurge" for Nickelodeon, as well as "Paradise Run".

[@vividleo]

Fun House I remember jd Roth came to the Santa Cruz beach boardwalk wow 😊

[@douglasdixon524]

This show actually taught kids a little about each state, it seems. I've never seen it before. It probably should have lasted longer.

[@kaifreeman294]

@ 9:13 it look's like the girl (in the yellow) was getting fed up. Like if to say: "Alright already, can we just begin the game" "lol"

Okay I understand that the Gold Team came in last place and all but,... clothes? Did they just go to a thrift store to get their prizes?... poor kids lol

[@NoctemEternus]

Watch the sticky chicky segment closely when he counts up the chickens. He messes up with the red team and counts 14 instead of 15. They had a total of 15 so they should have won outright. I say RIGGED!! LOL

[@corporateraider77]

Yeah I caught that too. Lol

[@MDCSWildcats86]

Still, it didn't affect the final outcome (all that much, at least).

[@drinkinglotsofsoda]

If you look closer, when one dropped on the ground, he hesitated, counted that one then continued counting. For both teams.

[@divingadventures121]

Thought there was a water slide too?

[@Pikapika77731]

I dream of meeting the cute twins back in the day

[@1980Triumph]

If this aired today it would not feel as fun or wholesome and certainly identify politics will somehow be the focus. I miss these days

Our next contestant is the first non-binary, trans, 2 spirited cripple with diabetes contestant Shaniqua. Now hold your applause because Shaniqua has noise sensitivity so lets give her some jazz hands instead. Jazz hands for Shaniqua everyone! Our first game will be "Smash the fascist" We have a life-sized doll of President Trump, we'll blindfold our contestants, spin them around and the first to smash President Trump's head off with a baseball bat wins.
