It's just the beat that you hear during the intro. I was refering to the bit where the horns play. We're gonna play speedword. Hands on your buzzers, don't answer 'till I say go. We'll put the letters in place one at a time, the last letter is up to you. Ready? Go!
I remembered the theme so well, it was one of my favorite game shows. I miss it so much. GSN needs to do something to get it on the channel. Fuck FremantleMedia they are dicks. They own the rights to Scrabble and SOTC
A few questions. Where's that bit when the game show first starts and when Chuck introduces the board? There's also that little music where the contestants are introduced. One more thing. I could have sworn that this theme was on a CD. I'd love to find it! Got any suggestions? Thank you.
@RockinMan09 same here he may have made a stink about his "Wheel" contract but Merv was the bigger ass not giving him what he wanted. While Pat is a good host of "Wheel" nothing beats Chuck. after all Pat doesn't lick his finger & point to the $5k wedge like Chuck did w/ the (what was it $1500?)
In the Tournament of Champions, The players played 2 Scrabble Crossword Games a Piece. In those Crossword Games, letters that fell into the Blue and Pink Squares added their Value to the Jackpot, $500 for a Blue Square and $1,000 for a Pink Square. Stephen Nadeth won the Tournament with a Sprint Time of 13.0 Seconds, and he won the Jackpot, which at the time was worth $49,500. Overall, Stephen was one of Scrabble's Best Champions with a Grand Total of $76,500.
in 1985, Scrabble brought back 20 of its Biggest Winners to compete in the Scrabble Tournament of Champions. Those Champions battled it out to see who can win a Cash Jackpot that started at $35,000. The player with the Best Scrabble Sprint Time at the end of the Tournament won the Big Jackpot.
One of them will win a Cash Jackpot that starts at $35,000, and gets Bigger Everyday. They are... "CHAMPIONS". It's the Tournament of Champions, on the Crossword Game you've played all your Life.
If this show was brought back for 2009 they should keep the theme or update it a tiny hair... and this show would be produced by Fremantle Media North America instead of Reg Grundy Productions...if this was to ever happen!! as for the host we should bring Back Chuck Woolery!!)
Brings back memorys even though never made the show

Love the theme and thanks Fwank. But only if Chuck W. knew he would have a "stopper" twenty years later on "lingo" he might have made a fortune.
