Peter Marshall's Fantasy
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. :)

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.

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.

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.
