If we count the latter, I\'ve seen the show 5 times (most recently, here in New Brunswick, NJ...the others were in Vegas, Todd I think hosted all but one, which was hosted by David Ruprecht). 

I'm a pacifist, and even I would like to see a little more action.

Good topic!


 


I\'ve been in the audience of Millionaire three times. The second episode of the second run in 1999, an episode from Meredith\'s first season (met up with tvmattscott at this one, who was doing a behind the scenes, perhaps he can verify if it was Regis or Meredith?), and once for Super Millionaire (I think it was Bob-O\'s $1M win, not 100% sure).


 


Also saw an episode of The Jet Set, live with Eamonn Holmes, in London, in winter 2003. Saw a TPiR Barker during a GSC in 2004, I believe.


 


Been in the audience for too many local Harrisburg PA quiz bowl game shows to count the number (Brain Busters, High Q).

OK, I\'ll dive in, as best I can remember:


Wheel Of Fortune (in Los Angeles, around 2006)


The Price Is Right (Bob\'s final Million Dollar Spectacular)


Wait Wait Don\'t Tell Me (three times in Boston, but never in Chicago)


Says You (Boston-based public radio game show)


High School Quiz Show (Boston-area local high school quiz bowl show; I was a normal ticket-holder the first time and a volunteer audience seat-filler the second)


Ask Me Another (once in New York, once in Boston) 


Have I Got News For You (in London)


 


If I have to include The Price Is Right Live as well, I\'ve seen that one three times - once in Las Vegas and twice in Boston.


 


I should also note that I have tickets to see Says You again on December 28, for what I think (but could be wrong) is their TV pilot.

As for me:


TPIR- I don\'t recall the taping dates except for the last two... One aired Feb 2. 2001, the other Halloween 2001, one taped November 19, 2003 (My 30th birthday) then Bob\'s final show June 2007


 


Card Sharks 2001- 3 episodes. One thing I recall is that an error during the bonus game actually ended up with a big win for one contestant. He had an ace, Pat asked him higher or lower. The contestant said lower, and they revealed the next card, it was a 6. However, Pat forgot to ask the contestant for a wager. Pat swore the contestant said to bet it all... they replaced the 6, contestant said a wager that time, and lower and it was a TWO. 


 


Jeopardy!- 2001- Saw the LAST TWO episodes to feature the original dollar figures, but didn\'t know it at the time. An audience member actually asked Alex if they ever were going to up the dollar figures, and Alex replied \"We\'re thinking about it\", but it was never mentioned that the dollar figures would go up after the second taping. 


 


Hollywood Squares- 2001- Celebs included Greg Proops, Jack Hanna (one animal had an accident during a commercial break), Debbie Reynolds (who appeared a bit lost), Shaka Khan (I know I spelled it wrong). Tom made a reference to the skunk Jack was holding by saying \"something is smelling funny\", but the producers made him redo the intro during a break... I guess they didn\'t like it. One thing that surprised me was that the stars intros at that time were taped LIVE, courtesy of a camera that swung around on a crane... that was pretty cool. 


 


Also, courtesy of Randy West, saw the game show sets of Supermarket Sweep, Weakest Link, Family Feud (Anderson) and TTTT 2000.
