This version aired here in the UK in the late 80s/early 90s on a sadly defunct cable TV channel called Lifestyle. We were lucky to see countless brilliant US gameshows. ❤

Though Howard Morton had been in showbiz for a while, he first caught my attention on ONE DAY AT A TIME as an overprotective father of Julie's boyfriend, the way his hair looked in that episode, I thought it was Bob Barker, the difference was the speaking voice. Morton would also play the games SUPER PASSWORD and PYRAMID. Gifted actor who left us too soon.

I sure hope this show would be on Buzzr

A good “Lost and Found” show that BUZZR should feature!

Did announcer Michelle Roth ever get any screen time on this show?

[@ryanstrnad8442]

I did find a picture of her on google recently (probably came from the old "Game Show Magazine" which I remember them doing a story on this show). It was with her and the host on the set, she looked between 26-30 yrs old at the time (which would put her in her mid 60s today, hope she's still alive). BTW, she looked 100% feminine, wavy hair, top of shoulder length and a smile a mile wide.
