I haven't seen Super Market Sweep in a long time... It's got to be pre-NEMB, and you know how old that is.


  • Never watched Lingo before and just looked it up. - Erik_, Thu Apr 14 2022 1:43am
    Yes! It's exactly like Lingo. Wow. It's basically the same exact game just without the "Bingo" board and getting the first letter. Also, it's crazy how long ago that show looks and it was only the early-mid 2000s. Before I googled it, I thought it was going to be like Slingo, a slot machine/bingo... more

      • short reboot in the early 2000s? I never really watched that one. I just remember watching the original when I was kid. Buzzer seems to play Super Market Sweep somewhat often. There was also another game that was similar with the same host (I think?) where it was a mall instead of a super market.... more
        • Yeah, I think my sister watched a few times... - Puckdropper, Fri Apr 22 2022 5:49am
          The Price is Right was more likely to get watched... I don't even know if it survived transitioning over to Drew Carey. I wonder what will happen when Pat Sajak and Vanna White decide to retire...
          • Price is Right makes me think of staying home sick - Erik_, Mon Apr 25 2022 1:27am
            from school. I feel like I never really watched it outside of that. As far as I know, it's done pretty well with Drew Carey being the host. He's even looking a bit like Bob these days. I wonder too what will happen with Wheel of Fortune... but then again, I didn't think they would be able to... more
            • Me too... Although it was on a few times in college - Puckdropper, Wed May 04 2022 5:13am
              when I had some time between classes. Sometimes the new host takes off and it works well. Other times it doesn't really work and the show goes off the air fairly quickly. (Top Gear UK comes to mind... they fired Jeremy Clarkson and he took the other two with him. The new show, well, it's just not... more
              • Old UK Top Gear was the best. - Erik_, Mon May 09 2022 11:41am
                I'll never forget the Reliant Robin episode where they kept tumbling it over trying to turn. I haven't watched since the original hosts left nor have I watched their new show. So The Grand Tour isn't great? It's sort of in the back of my "maybe on a rainy day I'll watch" list.

                  One of my favorites... I was talking about Top Gear UK with the new hosts... The Grand Tour is good, but it's hard to keep up with because it's so infrequent. I wouldn't say it's a waste of a rainy day, though.
