Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Hosted by Bob Eubanks, this game show involved married couples coming on the show and answering intimate, and often embarrassing questions, about their married life, all so they could win a refrigerator. Which show was it?

Answer: The Newlywed Game

 Studies have shown that sixty percent of the couples that appeared on "The Newlywed Game" were later divorced.
2. Contestants on this game show hosted by Chuck Woolery must choose, out of three people, someone to go out on a date with. The next day, they report back to the show, and give a recap of their date. Which show is it?

Answer: Love Connection

 Before "Joe Millionaire" and "The Bachelor", there was "Love Connection." This show was made in the late 80's and early 90's.
3. On this game show, hosted by Kennedy, players must pick partners and work together to build up a "trust fund" of money by answering trivia questions. Then they've got to decide whether or not they want to share the money they've earned. Which show is it?

Answer: Friend or Foe

 At the end of the game, the two remaining contestants must vote secretly on whether they think their partner is their friend, or their foe. If both contestants vote "friend", they split the money 50-50. If one votes "friend", and the other votes "foe", the person who voted "foe" gets all the money, and "friend" leaves empty-handed. If both vote "foe", neither of them get the money.
4. On this GSN original, there are two sets of partners. The night before the show, each pair is given all the materials that they will need to know for the show. They have to learn all this stuff in twenty-four hours, which means they appear on the show with no sleep. Which show is it?

Answer: Cram

 When the pairs aren't answering questions, they have to walk on giant hamster wheels. The goal of the game seems to be to make the contestants as tired as possible. They have to answer dumb riddles correctly, talk for sixty seconds on a given subject without stammering or saying "um" or "uh", and other difficult, exhausting things.
5. On this game show, hosted by Todd Newton, the players have to win prizes by answering questions and avoiding a certain red cartoon character, who will take away all their money. What show is it?

Answer: Whammy

The original version, "Press Your Luck" of this show was aired in the 80s. Now, on the modern version, players can win all kinds of awesome prizes, like an MP3 player, a Suzuki car, or even a year's supply of M&M's!
6. On this game show, hosted by Mark L. Walberg, contestants have to stand on circles on the stage. If someone answers a question incorrectly, his or her circle might open up and drop them underneath stage, eliminating them from the game. Which show is it?

Answer: Russian Roulette

 Contestants can win up to a hundred thousand dollars, but first they have to correctly answer six questions in sixty seconds. If they get even one incorrect, or run out of time, they get dropped--literally!
7. On this game show, there are eight contestants. They have to answer questions and bank money. If they get a chain of eight questions correct, they get $125,000. Each round, the players have to vote the weakest player off, until there are only two players left. Which game show is it?
