Is this the last playing of TPHG?

This was one of the last episodes where Phone Home Game was played.

why they freeze frame the contestant before the commericial

[cr5704]

if you think about it the game did not really took that long it was mostly bob talking to that one guy about tom cruise and talking to that female contestant about the phone home game

[flowerofsilver]

Hahaha those commercials are great!

When Was the last Playing of Phone Home game?

Is Phone Home Game considered a win if the $10,000 is found? Or do they have to win the full $15,000?

[TVLubber]

@sanders8323

Perhaps considered a win if the $10,000 is found. However, winning the full $15K has been done at least twice.

@FHfan731: when was phone home game retired? i was under the impression the phone was hung up on this game in july or august of '91??

[FHfan731]

@domirules28 Naw, I'm certain is was sometime in 1989, but not sure what month exactly.

[Bu8956]

Bob is right, Rick sorta looks like a young Tom Cruise!!!!!

[DanZero77]

This one was good enough right at the start with the EAT FISH TWICE A WEEK ad which I remembered right off the top of my head!!!

Phone Home Game was one of my favorite pricing games of all time. OF ALL TIME! Too bad it was retired for taking so long to play! NICE WIN too!

Also WCBS for the win! Missing Channel 2 (as well as New York) during those days for sure!

[Digifan23]
