Toon In With Me April 9

(1/4) > >>

gameboy2000:
For those who have METV, The April 9th episode of Toon in With me will be about the history of game shows. It will be on at 7:00 am Eastern Time.

PYLdude:
The history of game shows, as told by a series of cartoons.

I can’t think of too many cartoons that had a specific game show theme to them. Can anybody?

(Keep in mind that Toon In With Me, for those unfamiliar, airs a lot of the classic stuff that we used to see in some syndication packages from when we were kids, such as the classic Looney Tunes, the Famous Studios productions like Popeye, Woody Woodpecker, Tom & Jerry, etc.)

Mike Tennant:
Three that immediately came to mind:

* The Ducksters (1950), in which Daffy Duck hosts Truth or AAAHHH!! with Porky Pig as a contestant
* People Are Bunny (1959), in which Daffy is a contestant on People Are Phoney starring Art Lamplighter
* Wideo Wabbit (1956), which parodies several TV shows including You Bet Your Life (as You Beat Your Wife, with Bugs as Groucho)

The Flintstones also did a great parody of Cullen-era Price is Right with Barney appearing as a contestant on the show.

They also had a 70s television special (The Flintstones Meet Rockula and Frankenstone) that had a parody of Let’s Make a Deal.
