The Big Board / First SNLer to appear on a game show?
« Last post by mmb5 on July 11, 2025, 10:10:29 PM »
Nowadays we are used to Pyramid and Match Game going heavy to the the SNL alumni association for celebrities.  However, that wasn't something you really saw in the 70s or 80s.  Anybody have an idea who would have been the first SNLer to appear on a game show after (or during) their SNL tenure?

The Big Board / Re: Contestant on French game show defeated after 646 wins

646 is also significant because it's 38 times the number of useful posts Mr. Allen has made on this forum.

I read it as 930 calendar days rather than wins; I think Johnny is correct that in real time, those wins added together were less than 21 months worth of shows.
Okay; so the combined wins of McKee, Salisbury, and Jennings are four times more and then some to match Émilien:
155 x 4 = 620 + 26 = 646.

I must be missing something.  How isn't it wrong?

646 wins over 21 months?!

That’s six times more than Thom McKee, Kit Salisbury, and Ken Jennings combined! (though for the former two, they won a total of 13 cars)

No. It isn’t.
74 + 43 + 38 = 155.  155 x 6 = 930.

He's not wrong, but it is an incredibly stupid flex from someone known for incredibly stupid flexes.
