The Most Underrated Game Show Sound Effect
Nick:
The "vowels only remaining" chirps from Wheel, as the rarity of their sounding these days typifies how the game has shifted from trying to spin and call every consonant possible in order to earn the cash to win prizes, to being able to win the game without much spinning at all thanks to there being no such concept as "score money" in the game with numerous Toss-Ups and bonuses tacked onto just solving puzzles.
BrandonFG:
Another one: I love the reverberating sound made when someone freezes a window in Bullseye. Would love to know how composers and sound editors came up with some of the SFX.
Loogaroo:
I'd like to nominate the "man lost" sounder from Hit Man.
ChrisLambert!:
Obvs. the "EEYOOOOOWWW" Stinger scream from the second season of $1M Chance of a Lifetime.
Obvs. :)

Not necessarily underrated, but speaking of Hit Man, I love the sfx of the advancement of a hit man in round one. It believe it was the future Super Password clue reveal spliced with the correct answer bell from $ale of the Century.
