Press Your Luck (1983–1986)

Great show and one of the best game shows ever!

[10/10 · 4 September 2006]

I love this show and began to discover just recently after the untimely death of host Peter Tomarken. I really didn't get into the show despite it being very popular. That is until a few months ago. As I really loved the show a lot. It is a great show despite running for three years. It has indeed have a great following. With three players trying to win cash and prizes. But the catch is to avoid the Elmo like devilish Whammy who will jump up and take everything away from them. Peter is a great host. This show fits him like a glove. Rod Roddy was good as the announcer and the sometimes sidekick. Again I can't believe this show lasted for three years. But it really found an audience on the USA Network then and Game Show Network now! Here is for more generations of Whamminites like myself I am calling them. LOL. To see over and over again!
