Pat Sajak Merv Griffin The Success of A Dynamic Duo Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! By Elizabeth Jensen T “Jeopardy!” eventually was reincarnated several hey are two of the most popular and enduring game times, first with Fleming again hosting, but Alex Trebek shows of our era, a back-to-back early evening block was hired as the host of a syndicated version in 1984, of family viewing in many television markets, and one and that combination, proved to be the one. The show would not exist without the other. is ranked second in its genre. While both programs “Jeopardy!” came along first. According to an have numerous Daytime Emmy Awards to their credit, interview creator Merv Griffin did with the Associated the current version of “Jeopardy!” holds a record for Press in 1964, he was inspired by his wife, Julann. The question and answer format had been dormant since the quiz show scandals “The wonderful thing is, we don’t of the late 1950s, when some shows’ ever have to resort to anything that outcomes were rigged. But, noted Ray Richmond, the author of the 2004 book even remotely looks like a stunt.” “This is Jeopardy,” “The thing with Merv – Harry Friedman Griffin was, he just dove in; he didn’t care what suspicions people had or what they Executive Producer Wheel of Fortune & Jeopardy! thought.” The twist for the new program, Griffin syndicated game shows, having been honored with 28 told the AP, would be to provide the answer—with the Daytime Emmy Awards. contestants coming up with the question. NBC snapped Both shows are now produced by Sony Pictures it up in 1964 without even seeing a pilot, and the Television, after their acquisition from Merv Griffin gentlemanly Art Fleming was hired as host. Enterprises, and distributed by CBS Television But in 1975, the show, then running in NBC’s Distribution. daytime lineup, came to the end of its original run. So Hundreds of other game shows have come and gone NBC, to compensate Griffin, agreed to air his latest in the years since the two programs began. Credit for creation, “Wheel of Fortune,” a hangman-type of word keeping the shows current goes to Harry Friedman, puzzle, spiced up by a giant wheel that contestants would their executive producer, who comes up with new ways spin to earn cash and prizes. to tweak and freshen up the formats every year, without Pat Sajak came aboard “Wheel” in 1981, replacing losing their uniqueness. original host Chuck Woolery. Vanna White One thing he hasn’t done, even though viewers keep joined him as his letter-turning partner when asking, is to air the shows live, in primetime. “I’m not sure the syndicated version launched in 1983. The why we’d ever want to do that,” he said. “The wonderful combination was a match; the show has been the thing is, we don’t ever have to resort to anything that top-rated game show in syndication ever since. continued on page 16 38th Annual Daytime Entertainment CREATIVE ARTS EMMY ® AWARDS 16 Vanna with Pat on the 5000 th episode of Wheel of Fortune, 2009. Alex featured on the cover of TV Guide. continued from page 14 even remotely looks like a stunt.” Instead, for “Wheel,” Friedman has kept the excitement going by adding ways to let contestants win more money. And he has kept “Jeopardy!” a part of the current conversation with special events such as this year’s playoff between the show’s all-time top money winner, Brad Rutter; Ken Jennings, who had the longest streak of wins; and Watson, IBM’s artificial intelligence computer system. Watson beat the two humans. “Jeopardy!,” said Richmond, “is still the only mainstream game on television that actually would be considered intellectual by anyone. So many other game shows have dumbed themselves down and ‘Jeopardy!’ never has.” In Richmond’s mind, the two shows endure for different reasons. “’Wheel’ is an American success story,” he said. “It makes everyone at home feel like they are smart. ‘Jeopardy!’ meanwhile makes everyone feel like they want to be smart.” At some point over the decades, both shows ceased to be just the evening’s entertainment and became something much larger. The famous “Jeopardy!” theme music--titled “Think!”-- gets played whenever the referees are taking too long at a ball game, Trebek noted. “After a while we’re a part of Americana,” he said. And “Wheel”? The reason the show endures, I have no idea,” said Sajak. “It’s a flukey, weird, strange, impossible to predict, impossible to explain business. If I went to try to pitch the show today I’d probably get laughed out of the office.” Moreover, he said, the technology is “a throwback.” But, he said, “You can’t get rid of the clunky wheel because people love the clunky wheel. And you don’t need someone up there turning letters.” But “somewhere along the line, I don’t know where, we became more than a popular show; we became part of the popular culture,” he said, providing a “touchstone in people’s lives.” Sajak said he likens it to a sunset: “Even if you don’t go out on the patio every night, it’s nice to know it’s out there. It may be the show that’s never canceled.” n Alex Trebek ® Simply the Best CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS. FROM ABC7 LOS ANGELES Pat Sajak 38th Annual Daytime Entertainment CREATIVE ARTS EMMY ® AWARDS Above: Alex with Ruta Lee on the game show, “High Rollers.” Long-Running Quiz Show Host Who is Alex Trebek? By Elizabeth Jensen A sk “Jeopardy!” executive producer Harry Friedman about Alex Trebek’s contributions to the fast-paced show over 27 years, and he singles out the host’s powers of concentration. “When he’s in the studio he has his game face on,” said Friedman. “It’s pretty demanding to run that game and work through 61 pieces of game material in every half hour. He’s pretty much working every minute, following who said what and watching who signals in next. It really requires a tremendous attention.” And what do viewers tend to focus on? Trebek’s mustache. Trebek noted that he was the first game show host with a mustache since Groucho Marx, and when he shaved it off on a whim in 2001, “it was traumatic for a number of people. They made such a fuss about it.” Studio audiences bring it up at every taping, he said, even though it’s been gone for a full decade. And Will Ferrell didn’t give it up either, continuing to sport one whenever he did the comic impersonation of Trebek on “Saturday Night Live.” “It’s so interesting how some facial hair is so much a part of how he is perceived,” said Friedman. 18 Trebek, a Sudbury, Ontario native, studied philosophy at the University of Ottawa and spent 12 years working in news at the Canadian Broadcasting Company before he hit Hollywood. American viewers became familiar with him as the host of “Wizard of Odds” in 1973, and then numerous other game shows, including “High Rollers” and “Battlestars”--he can’t remember how many. In 1984, without a tryout, he found a perfect match when the producers tapped him when they wanted to launch a new syndicated version of “Jeopardy!” Over the years, Trebek—who also hosted “Classic Concentration” for five years beginning in 1987--has won five Emmys for Outstanding Game Show Host. He is also one of the few to have been honored with a star on both the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Canadian Walk of Fame in Toronto. “I host ‘Jeopardy!’ because I like the show and I believe it’s a quality program,” he said. It remains popular year after year, he thinks, “because Americans are very competitive, and particularly in areas which command respect, like knowledge.” Not only is it “popular with ordinary folks from all walks of life,” he said, but “it’s the kind of show that people can watch as a continued on page 20 World Vision congratulates Alex Trebek on his Lifetime Achievement Award Alex Trebek in Uganda Volunteer.

Everyone can participate and everyone can have a few moments in which to shine.” One of the most important attractions, he believes, is that viewers are also eager to learn. They constantly stop him to say how much knowledge they gain from the show. “Jeopardy! provides you with a safe opportunity to do that,” he said.

People who appear on ‘Jeopardy!’ are bright and they’re probably used to being right; they are probably successful outside of our show and a lot of them don’t know how to take failure. So I try to ease the process.” Success or failure, he noted, is somewhat random, depending on whether the contestants happen to draw categories they are knowledgeable about. Trebek is an equally calming host for the younger set, hosting the annual National Geographic Bee, for fourththrough eighth-graders, and he is on the board of the National Geographic Society Education Foundation. He travels widely for “Jeopardy!” himself, delivering clues from around the world. Off camera, Trebek, who became a U.S. citizen in 1998, is a supporter of the U.S. military organization, the USO, and the Christian charity, World Vision, for whom he is a spokesman. In recent years, through World Vision, he and his wife Jean, with whom he has two children, have adopted a village in Zambia, allowing it to build a new school, sanitation facilities and homes for teachers, and they helped fund a similar project in northern Uganda. “I’ve found a great deal of satisfaction in that work,” he said, adding that he is thankful to “finally be in a position where we can give back and see tangible results.” Asked how long he will continue hosting the show, Trebek said he doesn’t know. But he is already on board for another three years, which would bring his tenure to 30 years. And that, he said, “has a nice ring to it.” n University of Ottawa This University of Ottawa alumnus is being honoured tonight for his outstanding career by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences The University of Ottawa and its entire community salute alumnus Alex Trebek for his exceptional contribution to the entertainment world and to our own university family 38th Annual Daytime Entertainment CREATIVE ARTS EMMY ® AWARDS Behind-the-Scenes with Harry Friedman A Conversation with the Executive Producer By Elizabeth Jensen H arry Friedman, the executive producer of “Wheel of Fortune” and “Jeopardy!,” since 1999, has more than 5,500 episodes of the two shows under his belt and seven Emmy Awards. The Omaha native came to Hollywood in 1971 without a job, but after the patter he wrote for a nightclub singer drew attention, he landed a freelance position writing for “Hollywood Squares,” earning $5 for each question. His game show career was launched. He says he now has “one of the last great jobs in broadcast television.” He talked with Elizabeth Jensen about his stewardship of the shows. Did you come to Hollywood wanting to work on game shows? I didn’t really come specifically to work on game shows although when I was living in the Midwest I had been a huge fan of “Hollywood Squares” and I thought, “I could do that.” continued on page 26 24 “ What’s great about both shows is that they’re family friendly, and appointment television.” – Harry Friedman, Executive Producer, Wheel of Fortune & Jeopardy! 38th Annual Daytime Entertainment CREATIVE ARTS EMMY ® AWARDS HARRY FRIEDMAN continued from page 24 You said you “couldn’t get over here fast enough” when you were asked if you might want to work at “Wheel” and “Jeopardy!.” Why? When you talk about “Wheel,” it’s a great game. Every kid my age certainly grew up playing hangman, and it’s just the idea of being able to play a simple puzzle game, and get rewarded for it. “Jeopardy!” is completely different. It’s a show about knowledge and interests, and tests what you as the viewer and contestant know, and it informs you likewise about what you might not know. What’s great about both shows is that they’re family friendly, and appointment television. The two programs run back to back in most markets. Is there a synergy? I think there is. We do know we have quite a bit of overlap. Each one challenges you in a different way. A lot of “Wheel” contestants would not be able to qualify for “Jeopardy!” and, oddly enough, a number of “Jeopardy!” contestants would not qualify for “Wheel.” We like to say “Wheel” is a game show and “Jeopardy!” is a quiz show. What does it take to be a successful game show/quiz show producer? We are constantly trying to improve, tweak, energize every aspect of our shows. We’re very much into being sensitive to trends but making sure it’s not just the trend of the moment because we don’t have to do that. We can take our time. One of the things we like to say about both shows is that they’re reliable, but never predictable. At “Wheel,” you created the “Wheel Watchers Club,” the first of its kind online viewer loyalty program which now has more than 5.7 million members. How else do you keep the show fresh? We keep adding new elements to make it visually interesting and more exciting. The game is still basically the same. But we add more ways to win and more reasons to watch. It’s so important for “Wheel” to be that respite from the rigors of the day. Your decision in 2003 to eliminate the “Jeopardy!” five-day rule for contestants was a key move? That really was a game changer, literally. It just said that we believe there should be no limit to excellence, so if you can keep winning we will let you. We didn’t anticipate someone would do that for 74 games. Was there a lot of debate beforehand? Sure. The downside was a concern that what if someone gets on the show that our viewers dislike? In a way, we’re inviting someone into our home and what if they are the guest that won’t leave. It was definitely a risk and fortunately the guy who probably is today most associated with the show as a contestant-- Ken Jennings—fortunately, he turned out to be a great guy. In September 2006 yours were the first syndicated shows to convert to High Definition? It was a huge investment; the studio spent about 4 million dollars. Viewers noticed immediately; I was so surprised because the penetration of HD sets in the marketplace was pretty low at the time. Viewers still talk about it. It adds an energy to both shows, [particularly] “Wheel” because it is so bright and animated and it just makes it more so in HD. What new features can viewers look forward to coming up? For “Jeopardy!”, we’ll be sending the Clue Crew and Alex Trebek to even more exotic locations to shoot clues; they’re going to the Far East this year and they just came back from the Antarctic. We’re really going to be bringing the world to our viewers. As for “Wheel,” we’re adding some game elements that will allow more viewers at home and in-studio contestants to win prizes. Your hosts have been there for many years. Have you thought about eventual succession? Nothing is ensured forever, and I’m sorry to hear that, too. We have the best hosts in the business and we just hope they’ll stick around for as long as they want to. n 26 Congratulations To all nominees and winners of the 2011 Emmy® Awards The plating process at the R.S.

It was 1981 and the sevenyear-old NBC daytime program was in third place in its time slot. Creator Merv Griffin needed a new host to replace the departing Chuck Woolery and he wanted the KNBC-TV weatherman in Los Angeles, Pat Sajak. As Griffin told the New York Times in 1988, ‘’He had great charm.’’ He liked Sajak’s practical jokes: “In California, how many cold fronts from Canada can we have? I remember once he came on with a bandage over his right eye. After a break, the bandage was over the left eye. Pat never said a word, just kept doing the weather.’’ But NBC said no, and Sajak himself wasn’t so sure. “I didn’t necessarily feel suited to doing [a game show],” he recalled in an interview with the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. “When Merv called me, I told him, ‘I’m not sure I’d make a very good game show host.’ It was something I had never done.” Moreover, “Back then there was a sort of prototypical game show host”—think Guy Smiley, the over-enthusiastic character from “Sesame Street”, he said—and “I’m fairly low-key in my approach.” Griffin told NBC that if it didn’t approve Sajak he would stop the show’s taping. The guy from Chicago’s Southwest side was hired and pioneered a new style for game shows. Two years into his run, a nighttime syndicated version of the show debuted, also hosted by Sajak, and he took the show to first place, where it remains today. He has earned three Emmy Awards for his work. Sajak said his hiring was a success because no one tried to make him into that stereotypical host; they just allowed him to be who he is. Executive producer Harry Friedman said Sajak’s appeal is that “he is lighthearted; he just has that impish way of looking at things. And he has a great understanding of the game and of his role in the game, which is to really be there for the contestants, to keep the game moving, to keep it fun, to put them at ease, and to not take himself too seriously.” Asked about that characterization, Sajak quipped: “I didn’t think he cared. So when he rolls his eyes he just thinks I’m being impish.” But he added, “It’s a fine line not taking yourself too seriously and not taking the show seriously. I take my work seriously; I care very much about what’s on the air, what’s on the show. But I’m playing hangman, spinning a giant wheel, so it’s hard to take yourself too seriously.” He has clearly studied his role since taking it on. “I think one of the reasons a game is difficult to host, relatively speaking, is it goes against a performer’s natural instinct, that ‘look at me, aren’t I clever, aren’t I impish,’” he said. “With a game show you have to sort of sublimate that. The game is the star of the show and the second star 38th Annual Daytime Entertainment CREATIVE ARTS EMMY ® AWARDS 31 “When Merv called me, I told him, ‘I’m not sure I’d make a very good game show host.” – Pat Sajak is the players. You have to step back a bit.” The trick, he added, “is to find places where you can do something in a hit and run way, and not get in the way too much.” Behind the scenes, her “dear friend” shows no such restraint, said colleague Vanna White. “I laugh out loud all the time from things he says. Even in emails!” Prior to joining “Wheel,” Sajak was a newscaster and announcer at Chicago’s WEDC-AM. In 1968, he served 18 months waking the troops as a deejay on Armed Forces Radio in Saigon, during the Vietnam War. Postdischarge, he landed a radio job in Murray, Ky., but soon jumped to Nashville’s WSM-TV. By 1977 he was doing the weather in Los Angeles. Sajak left the network daytime version of “Wheel” when he was hired to host a late night CBS talk show, which ran from January 1989 to April 1990. A frequent substitute host for CNN’s Larry King and on the daytime “Live with Regis and Kelly,” Sajak also hosted “Pat Sajak Weekend” on the Fox News Channel, in 2003. In addition to a production company and music publishing company, he owns two Maryland radio stations. He and his wife, Lesly, have two children. Asked how long he will stay with the show, Sajak said, “I have two goals. I’d like to leave while it’s still Number One, and I’d like to leave before people start to say, ‘what the hell happened to him.’ I’ll feel it, I’ll be shaving, and I’ll think ‘this is the year.’ But we’re not quite there yet. It’s going to be sooner rather than later, because if I did it another 30 years I’d be 100. But it won’t be because I’m burned out, because I hate it, because I’m sick of it or because I want to direct. It’ll be because it’s time.” n “The game is the star of the show and the second star is the players.” – Pat Sajak 38th Annual Daytime Entertainment CREATIVE ARTS EMMY ® AWARDS Vanna Reveals the Real Pat A Conversation with the Wheel’s Co-Host By Dinah Eng T urning letters on the “Wheel of Fortune” puzzle board with style and grace has made Vanna White a pop culture icon to fans of game shows everywhere. As co-host of the show since 1982, White was recognized with her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2006. Her autobiography, “Vanna Speaks,” was a national bestseller, and her passion for crocheting and helping children led to the creation of her own line of yarn called “Vanna’s Choice.” A portion of its proceeds is donated to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. White recently spoke with Dinah Eng about cohosting “Wheel of Fortune” and working with Daytime Entertainment Emmy Lifetime Achievement Award winner Pat Sajak. What is it like being a co-host with Pat Sajak? It’s wonderful. We’ve been together for 29 years and have never had an argument. He’s easy-going and incredibly funny. Even when we’re corresponding on e-mail, he makes me laugh out loud. He’s just a joy to work with. What is Pat like when he’s not on air? He’s actually reserved when he’s around groups of people. He’s not the typical Hollywood type. He’s quiet, and doesn’t like being in the limelight. He’s also a huge sports fan. He loves baseball and hockey. What makes the Lifetime Achievement Award such a fitting tribute for him? He’s taken for granted because he makes his job look easy, but it takes a lot of work. He’s so good at making people feel comfortable. He’s always saying nice things to the contestants, who are usually nervous. He makes people feel like he’s their next door neighbor. We have a large staff, and everyone loves him. 32 He’s such a kind man. We’ll travel several times a year to tape the show and make appearances. One time, we were taping a show in New Orleans and he knew about this great restaurant. He had them cater dinner for the whole staff, and we had an incredible meal. He didn’t have to do that, but he did. “ He’s so good at making people feel comfortable. “ – Vanna White When did the two of you start working together? “Wheel of Fortune” started in 1975 with Chuck Woolery and Susan Stafford. Pat started hosting in 1981 with Susan Stafford, and when she left a year later, I started working on the daytime version of the show. In 1983, we started a syndicated nighttime version, and also worked the daytime show for awhile after that. How did you come to be a game show co-host? I wanted to be on TV from the time I was 10 years old. I didn’t care in what capacity. I grew up in Myrtle Beach, S.C., came out to Los Angeles, and got lucky with this job. I was waitressing, going on auditions and doing TV commercials. One day, my boyfriend and I went to see one of Merv Griffin’s shows, “Dance Fever,” and his right-hand man was there. I went up to him and said I’d heard that they were looking for a replacement on “Wheel of Fortune.” He said if they hadn’t found a replacement by October 5, I could call him and audition. I went in, and was told that I had the job the day before Thanksgiving.

Yes. He made me feel so welcome, like I was part of the family. He was aware of how nervous I was, and he took me under his wing. When we did promos, he’d ask, “Are you comfortable doing this?” I watched how he acted with people, and he was a good teacher for me. Now you have your own “Vanna Style” web page on wheeloffortune.com. People love to know what I’m wearing on the show, and where they can buy it. I write a blog with helpful hints to stay in touch with fans. When I started it, my daughter was young, so we put little games for children on it, too. Why are game shows so popular? Game shows are FUN! The news is so depressing. With a game show, you can sit down with your whole family and play at home. Children learn the alphabet from our show, and if you’re walking by the TV, you can stop a minute and try to solve the puzzle yourself. It’s addictive. “He’s just a joy to work with.” – Vanna White Vanna White appearing for the first time on Wheel of Fortune in December of 1982. 34 Why do you think, after 29 years, that you and Pat are still together on the show? I remember one day in the beginning, Pat and I were sitting next to each other in the makeup chairs, and I said, “I wonder where we’ll be in 10 years?” My job was to turn the letters, and that’s what I still do. Merv (Griffin) said 200 girls auditioned along with me for the position, but the chemistry between Pat and me reminded him of a brother and sister. Pat has always been a shoulder to lean on for me. He’s just an incredible guy. n 38th Annual Daytime Entertainment CREATIVE ARTS EMMY ® AWARDS The Games People Play Television’s Love Affair with the Game Show By Allison J. Waldman O nce upon a time, from the earliest days of broadcasting, game shows dominated the daytime schedule. Carrying over from radio, daytime television has been a place where quiz shows, soap operas, court dramas, talk programs or news all thrived. ---- And for game shows it wasn’t just the competition that was entertaining; there were celebrities like Groucho Marx, Betty White, Lucille Ball and an entire tic-tac-toe box of stars on “Hollywood Squares,” to dazzle daytime watchers. Imagine that you could bet your life, play the pyramid, solve a word puzzle with concentration, learn the password, spin the wheel, and so much more. Competition programming filled the landscape of daytime, from “To Tell the Truth” to “Password” to “Family Feud.” “ Game shows come and go like tidal waves throughout TV history.” – Tom O’Neil, Author, “ The Emmys” 36 “Game shows come and go like tidal waves throughout TV history,” according to Tom O’Neil, the author of “The Emmys,” as well as LATimes.com and Goldderby. com television columnist. “They’re quickly popular one minute, then interest suddenly ebbs and recedes the next. …It gets reborn a few years later, though.” Currently, America has renewed its love affair with game shows. In 2006, just five years ago, the Daytime Emmy nominations included only two shows — “Jeopardy!” and “Who Wants to Be A Millionaire.” This year, the 2010 Emmy winner “Cash Cab” is back in contention, as well as “Jeopardy!,” “The Price Is Right” and “Wheel of Fortune.” And GSN, the Game Show Network, has grown in popularity, reaching 75 million homes with a mix of classic programs, retooled favorites and new shows “Twenty-One” game show host Jack Barry, center, with participants, including famous contestant Charles Van Doren. THE EARLY DAYS In the pioneer days of the television industry, game shows migrated from radio, bringing audiences with them. In the 1940s, there were 44 game shows on network primetime, and over four times that amount, 151, in the 1950s. But the scandal of “Twenty-One,” in which a popular contestant, Charles Van Doren, had received the answers in advance to ensure that he kept winning, cast a shadow over the legitimacy of these shows. The networks shied away from the genre, and by the summer of 1958, there were just 23 quiz/game shows on the air. But the tide rose in the 1960s and beyond, as each decade produced new and innovative games that resonated with the viewing public. “Jeopardy!,” “Hollywood Squares” and “Match Game” all began in the 1960s, as well as Chuck Barris’ “The Dating Game” and “The Newlywed Game.” In the ‘70s, “The $10,000 Pyramid” and “Family Feud” were hugely popular, and Barris pushed the envelop of good taste with “The Gong Show.” In the 1980s, “Jeopardy!” creator Merv Griffin struck gold a second time with “Wheel of Fortune.” “Blind Date,” a descendant of “The Dating Game,” appeared in 1999, the same year that “Win Ben Stein’s Money” won the Emmy as Outstanding Game Show. Stars emerged on these games, including Pat Sajak and Vanna White on “Wheel,” Richard Dawson with “Feud,” and Alex Trebek on “Jeopardy!,” to name but a few. Wayne Brady, the current host of CBS’s reboot of “Let’s Make A Deal,” admits to being a long-time admirer of “Jeopardy!.” “It’s skill-based. It’s not how lucky you are with the luck of the cards or what’s behind that door, it actually takes brain-power to get on that show and do well.” Brady discovered soon after stepping into Monty Hall’s shoes with “Deal,” that game show contestants are as ardent today as they were in the Kennedy-era 1960’s when the show premiered. “The appeal of the game show 38th Annual Daytime Entertainment CREATIVE ARTS EMMY ® AWARDS Regis Philbin hosting “Who Wants to Be A Millionaire.” is simple,” said Brady. “People love to win. People enjoy seeing other people compete because they have fantasies that it could be them.” TODAY’S GAMES With the new millennium, the traditional game needed more than color to attract viewers. The bright lights, theatrical music and dramatic effects of UK import, “Who Wants to Be A Millionaire?” took off in America, with Regis Philbin as the host. “Millionaire” had international appeal, as witnessed in the Oscar-winning motion picture “Slumdog Millionaire.” “People expect some theater, and if you have to make it that way, you do,” said Gabrielle Johnston, veteran executive producer, “Family Feud.” “If the game is simple—and you can’t get much simpler than ‘Deal or No Deal’— it’s important to make it feel like it’s bigger. …The girls with the suitcases are just props, but I think they produce it very well and they’ve turned it into big theater.” Today, the return of the aforementioned “Let’s Make A Deal” and the ongoing success of “The Price Is Right” on CBS suggests that the pendulum may be swinging back in the game show direction. SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE What’s indisputable over the past 60 years of broadcast television is the fact that game shows remain a viable genre, albeit one that is constantly evolving. “Cash Cab,” for instance, was last year’s Emmy winner and, as O’Neil points out, “It’s ‘Jeopardy!’ To Go’ – a classic brain twister with a hip new tweak on wheels.” Beyond daytime and syndication, you can also see variations on the game show formula all over the dial. In primetime, competition driven reality shows, “Survivor,” “The Apprentice,” “The Amazing Race” and others are essentially the game shows of decades past. It’s easy to connect the antics of “Truth and Consequences” to “Wipe Out,” the fake courtship of “The Dating Game” to “The Bachelor” and even the mawkish tears of “Queen for a Day” to “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.” “Basically, these reality shows take the game concept out of the staid studio and place it into real world experiences,” contends Mary Ann Cooper, a syndicated television columnist. “They amp up the game show concept.” “Networks can’t afford to keep doing expensive dramas. When they fail, they have to start new shows. There’s less risk with game shows, and they’re cheaper to produce in general,” explains Johnston. “Game shows will always be a popular TV genre in general because they entertain viewers while engaging their intellects. Few TV shows bother to do that,” said O’Neil. n CONGRATULATIONS Pat Sajak and Alex Trebek on your Lifetime Achievement. 37 © 2011 IGT.

Our service members take an oath to serve, protect and defend this country. In return they ask for nothing from us. And yet, many of us feel a great sense of duty to say, “Thank You” whenever we come across someone in uniform. We take tremendous pride attaching a troop-supporting ribbon on our vehicles. And we’re grateful to the young men and women who bravely go into battle for the freedoms we enjoy. For the more than 31,000 service men and women wounded or injured in Iraq or Afghanistan, “Thank you for your service” is no longer enough. Give thanks — then get involved. To help these wounded service members and their families, we’re asking you to become part of something more meaningful, something truly rewarding. A donation to the Fisher House Foundation or a Fisher House in your area helps our heroes at a time when they need it the most. Fisher Houses, built through generous public donations, offer our service members and their families a comfortable living situation during treatment for traumatic, war-related medical crises. In most cases, these service members are being treated at medical facilities far from home — and their stays are lengthy due to the severity of their injuries. Go above and beyond for those who give their all. Make a donation to the Fisher House program at www.fisherhouse.org or call (888) 294-8560 toll free. ©2011 Fisher House Foundation | Creative services donated by ds+f, Washington, DC www.dsfriends.com | Photos compliments of Brendan Mattingly www.brendanmattingly.com Charles The Official Artist of the 2011 DAYTIME EMMY® AWARDS salutes all of this season’s Nominess!
