Title: Network daytime game shows question
Post by: bulldog_06 on November 17, 2013, 04:31:08 PM

What was the last daytime network game show that was 30 minutes (or 22 minutes) long?


 


I know TPIR and LMAD are 60 minutes (or 44 minutes) on CBS Daytime. 


 


Every syndicated game show on TV now is 30 but I can\'t remember if Caesars Challenge was the last 30 or was there something else?


 


Thanks.

Well, since Caesars was the last daytime game show before Let\'s Make a Deal came back around, I believe it would be that.

It seems like the logical choice then. So many of the 30-minute game show attempts since then have been for syndication then, correct?

Would Family Feud be the last one for CBS? I know the network run ended in 1993.

Well, that Feud version expanded to an hour in 1992; just a year before it went off.

Cordially,

Half-hour Feud in 1992 would still be the answer.

That and cable. I think the last 30-minute network show was the two-week Millionaire specials in August and November \'99. IIRC, it didn\'t become an hour-long until it became a regular series in January 2000.
