For those wondering about the first male contestant, Labrador is in Canada, and it's officially part of the same province as Newfoundland, except it's part of the mainland. There's a fun fact for you.🙂
I can see a Tattletales-style inspired format for this show with the celebrity predicting the civilian contestants' responses to questions and vice versa instead of celebrities predicting their spouse's responses.
I can see why this didn’t last long, kind of a dull show. It was cool though to see the origins of the Eubanks Card Sharks panel of 10 game and the Blockbusters buzz-in sound used when they locked in.
Loved the set design, liked the concept, but in execution something was missing. Dick Martin, a hilarious Match Game and Tattletales panelist, did as much as he could with this show; I don't fault him.
Goodson-Todman had previously tried this concept before, but with a slightly different format. "The Better Sex" had aired on ABC from July 1977 To January 1978, and one of the celebrity players in this pilot, Sarah Purcell, had hosted it with country singer Bill Anderson. It was taken off the schedule when the network decided to extend two of their soaps, "One Life to Live" and "General Hospital", from 45 minutes to one hour.
Hi, Gus I hope you’re doing well in your classes. However, I’m well aware about what you said from your last reply and I hope I’m not nagging you or anything (if so, I apologize) but I’d like to know if you’ll still be planning to continue with your “Classic Concentration” uploading such as your August/October backlog and the episodes from Valentine’s Day week including the recent Lover’s Week episodes from 1989 (#445, #446, #448, and #449). We’re missing you.
I’ve asked him the same question on his last “Classic Concentration” video and he said that he’s still recording the shows and he might continue but he just doesn’t know when
@@marcellosilva7137 However, he also said that keeping up with his channel hasn’t been as enjoyable as it used to be. Buzzr resumed airing more episodes of “Classic Concentration” on Valentine’s Day with the addition of 4 episodes in a row of the 1989 “Lover’s Week” edition. I’m assuming that Gus recorded those as well and will post them on his channel along with his August/October backlog. So keep your fingers crossed.
I think this game put too much burden on the celebrity captains, expecting them to know how questions would be answered. The only time the contestants had to do any work was on the "Turnaround" segment of the bonus game.
Goodson-Todman would also use this theme for another pilot, Puzzlers, which unfortunately didn't sell. It was hosted by KNBC meteorologist Pat Sajak. Wonder what he's doing these days? 😁
The champion team went to whoever accrued $300 first, and went to the bonus round for up to $15,000. Dick Martin's wardrobe provided by Botany 500. All contestants must meet eligibility requirements to receive announced prizes.
$50 for each time the team captain matched wits, otherwise, it went to their opponents. Whoever got to $300 won the championship, played the bonus round against ten studio audience members for up to $1,500. In Turnabout, the team captain chooses "yes" or "no" secretly, and the majority must agree with it to multiply their total amount by ten.
Bad yes, but not the worst. What’s Going On comes to mind. Missing Links was pretty bad especially with Ed McMahon hosting, and Trivia Trap just seemed thrown together. Body Language was very flawed with their scoring format; Showoffs was a better charade game.
@@someguy23475 I liked Body Language and Trivia Trap so I can't agree with that. However if what you're right about what Goodson said about the show than that would explain why they almost deleted the entire series which is actually very rare for the company to do.
The only good things about this show are the theme song and Johnny Olson. Everything else about it sucks. Dick Martin goes around with this big stupid grin on his face and looks like he is sleepwalking through his hosting duties, and the game is boring and mind-numbingly slow-paced. I'm shocked this got past the pilot stage and made it on the air at all, let alone for 22 weeks.

This is a pilot episode from the American game show "Mindreaders" & it's originally aired in August 1979. 🇺🇲 🇺🇲
thank you so much buzzr. thanks to you this pilot has been found!. In the clear!

Hi, Gus

Dick Martin great host
Wow, a 1970s pilot that didn't have either Jack Campion or Maggie Brown!
I can only think of 3 pilots with Maggie Brown (Whew, Second Chance, and Press Your Luck), and I don't know any with Jack Campion. You got a list?
@@witherblaze Jeopardy (Alex Trebek, both pilots), Second Chance, PYL, Card Sharks (Jim Perry).
Did this show get picked up by NBC for a regular time slot on NBC Daytime
Will CC continue uploading?

This bonus game idea was revived... in the maingame of Eubanks Card Sharks and later in their car round.
The bonus game is probably the only thing about the game that's all that interesting. So I can see why it got "revived" so to speak....
The only thing good about this Goodson-Todman flop was its kick-ass theme song.

This was by far Goodson-Todman's worst game show.

Oh no. What a flop of a game. No strategy possible. Dick Martin wasn’t good in this arena.
From what I hear in run-throughs this was a hit and Mark Goodson didn't agree with Dick Martin as host but the network insisted.
Wtf is he wearing lol😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
He going to scooby doo convention
