* The Price Is Right: Every time they play Stack The Deck (Honestly, I feel whoever created that game gave it that name just to rub it in).
It is definitely a budget-saver game, and they exploit that fact, though it seems to have a disproportionately high number of contestants who play it badly as well. The GP pricing can be tricky, but if you're fortunate to land one or two of them and you're picking either of the first two digits for your freebies, then you're asking to lose.
I found a site that has scans of Nielsen Pocketpieces from 1978-June of 1988:

Same. Felt like a holdover from Chain Reaction.
Not exactly an example, but when reading TV Guide at 5 years old, for some reason it didn't gel with me that "To Be Announced" wasn't the name of an actual show. I was always left curious as to what a show named that would be like.I figured it was a show where they announced local events and such. Since it sounded very boring, I never tuned in to see what it really was.
