Confessions of a Dangerous Mind comes to mind, although it focuses less on the actual game shows and more on fictionalized events surrounding them.
TimK2003:
And "Catch Me If You Can" began the movie with a slightly altered version of To Tell The Truth when Frank Abagnale, Jr. (played by Leo DiCaprio) appeared as the subject of the round.
alfonzos:
Of course, J! plays a key scene in "White Men Can't Jump."

Could we perhaps not have a fifty-page thread of every appearance of a game show in a feature film?

But how else will we reminisce about that three-second shot from Teh $25,000 Pyramid in Splash?
