I love how they run to the studio. I bet 90% of contestants in todays game shows could not do that.

Shows how inactive we've become.

I think I do have a partial episode of Starcade on VHS, recorded from G4 on November 8, 2022, 10 days before the network shut down.

At 3.22, did that kid mouth what the mystery game was? Additionally he picked it right after.

Mavis, can you share any anecdotes from being on set? This was a unique time and I'm sure the logistics of running such a show would have been very different than other game shows. For example, The top prize seemed to vary considerably in quality; from a full cabinet high profile arcade game down to the Aquarius, which was only in production for a few months. No need to share if you don't want to, of course, but there's probably more than a few of us interested. Thanks!

Yes, I'll take you behind-the-scenes of a Starcade taping ... I will post it here when it's ready. FYI, the Grand Prize was always a Video Arcade Game or a Jukebox or a Robot or a trip to Hawaii. The Aquarius Computer was given to the Overall Winner on some shows. We had the manufacturers permission to give away as the Grand Prize ANY video arcade game without exception ... the Games were the stars of Starcade ... __Mavis, Co-Creator/Executive Producer/Writer

Thanks I added it to the in order playlist. Do you have episodes 24-33? Those are the big ones missing from the list. Hope you're well, thanks again. kzbin.info/aero/PLf9MGHQuJoh7T5CoxrdqQ3l2n5WkC9y7t&si=8dgZSXKXznSGSOJs

When we changed Hosts, we skipped ahead in our numbering ... so Episode #023 was Mark Richards last show -- Episode #034 was Geoff Edwards first show...don't ask me why we did that...it seemed like a good idea ... at the time.__Mavis, Co-Creator/Executive Producer/Writer

[@rambling-along93]

@@starcadetvv I might be able to answer that. It appears that you guys ran episodes 24-33 twice during the season. Episode #24 ended up re-airing as episode #72 for example. I'm assuming it was a way to fulfill the required number of episodes for the season order.
