Peter Marshall's Fantasy

<< < (3/4) > >>

ChrisLambert!:
I remember attending some sort of home show at age nine and seeing some display with a swirling whirlwind set up - I assume to represent all the money their A/C unit would save you if you used it.

I clearly recall saying \"Look! It's the Fantasy Fountain!\"

Guy said it'd been the fifth time he'd heard that today. :)

Quote:
For the record, GSN has shown Fantasy, to my knowledge, precisely once. It aired on the day the network debuted, and unless it was a brief Dark Period stopgap, I don't think it's been seen since.

There was one other time that same episode was shown:  on the first anniversary on Dec 1, 1995.  They repeated the opening marathon on that day.

uncamark:
The other regular segment that appeared on the show was \"Fantasy Spotlight,\" where new musical talent got a shot at television exposure.  Don't know if anyone famous came out of that spot.

And there's why you haven't seen \"Fantasy\" on GSN (outside of the obscurity factor)--that old devil music clearance rearing its ugly head again.

zachhoran:
They often sang the popular songs of the day like the Police's Every Breath you Take, etc.

The show also had a Sweepstakes with a top prize of over $250K Cash and Prizes, co-sponsored by Hardee's. It was the most ever offered on a daytime TV game show up to that point.

Timsterino:
This is one show I actually remembered watching and I was enthralled as a child by that Fantasy Money Fountain.  It was a cool show. I voted for it during the Feast of Favorites.

Tim :-)
