Well, that's because it wasn't that good.

 The jokes in this thread are a puzzle. Can you solve it?

RAN + DUMB = Random
&
SIR + EEL = Surreal

Random and surreal!

The contestants looked at the puzzle on a big screen directly in front of them.  The audience had to watch the monitors above the bleachers.

--- Quote ---Is this the only Goodson (or G-T) show that has ever had a massive amount of on-air tweaking? The only other G-T show that comes to mind in regards of tweaks and changes is Now You See It.

"Now You See It" only had one major change - Christmas week 1974 when they totally revamped the format (speaking of that, has anyone got that first revamped episode on tape?)

They did have a minor change part way through with the "bonus answers" rule, where contestants could get 10 extra points if they got an answer right that they wrote down before the round started. [/quote]
 Biggest change of all was getting rid of the "Chump Change" theme music in favor of an Edd Kalehoff composition midway through the series. (By the time the show went off the air, "Chump Change" was back.)

 That was one of Kalehoff's worst compositions, IMO. Sounded very uneven and well, bad.

...which is prolly why it only lasted a coupla wks before Chump Change was reinstated, although they continued to use Kalehoff's theme as a commercial outro cue for the rest of the series.
