For those of you criticizing; this was the early 70s. No internet, no "techno gadgets", cable tv, or music channels. For us back then, this was normal and entertaining along with Star Trek, Hawaii 5-0, Mod Squad, F-Troop, Hogan's Heroes, etc. Much, much simpler, more innocent time. Also a good time to be a kid as we actually read books for enjoyment.
I used to watch this show with my family when I was a kid back around 70-71. I think the hosts name was Jack Narz or Jack Arts(?). This show was actually very popular then. The contests were simple yet challenging. I just have sentimental feelings now as this was a show that my family enjoyed together. Several celebrities appeared on this show. Jack was later replaced by another host.
This is exactly what Minute to Win It would be like 40 years later. If you count the premiere of the original version of Beat the Clock, it would be 60 years later.
I wonder if the Skipper was pissed that Gilligan went on Beat the Clock without him...

Jack Narz left and the announcer Gene Wood took over. You remember Gene Wood from Family Feud, Super Password, etc...
