Super Password: Fastest Bonus Round Ever

[myrtlebox]

I held my hand over the answers and got them just as readily (except for Rodeo)

Perfect clues, but possibly just an easy set of words.

[Kazuo1G]

COLLEGE. UNIVERSITY!!!! *Crowd goes WILD!*

[jspydr]

How did you get Quaker from the word Mormon....I wouldn't have got that one and I'm LDS!

[TheYouwontgetit]

that was cool...!!!

[mgblue]

another amazing moment of black and white coming together in perfect harmony

[DoubleVisionandco]

Great bonus round. That was in the 80`s and it wasn`t often you seen older ladies as she was with a figure that nice lol.

[GintokisGirl95]

"Could've done it again." lmao

[butcherboy2008]

She can take her $20,000 and go shopping on Rodeo Drive.

[sageofsuccess]

OF all the bonus rounds on games shows, I always thought that this one was by far the easiest to win.

[Amisbro]

here's a question for ya:

when she said rodeo it sounded like she pronounced it like that strip o Beverly Hills(ro-day-o) I guess correct pronunciation didn't matter am I right?

[younghoss]

@Amisbro

Correct pronunciation? Sort of. It is Spanish pronunciation. In actual rodeos, many Mexicans were cowboys in the American west; and of course much of California was populated by Mexicans before it was a state. Not unusual to pronounce it either way.

Ever notice Caucasian newscasters say the word Nicaragua? They almost always say it as if they were native Spanish speakers. Don't know why some people will say just 1 word with the accent of another language, but many people do.

[PatrioticPirate]

They set that game on FIRE!!!

[PeterFormaini]

Actually, the record was 29 seconds remaining - but still VERY impressive!

[artytoons]

Greg Morris accomplishing another Mission Impossible.

[BrooklynNellie]

Ah, yes. The good old reflection on the glasses trick.

[wolffan94044]

@BrooklynNellie funny, I was just thinking that she might have read them through his glasses

[SonicWhammy]

I have one slightly faster in my collection, too. Bill Cullen in an early Plus episode did it in 31 seconds. About the same as here, only needed 2 clues on one word.

Still, darn good.

[JebidiahJewboy]

Telepathy?

[zenithforever]

these old gameshows have been now proven to give some players answers ahead of time. just watch it again...she memorized...

[nintendodailyvideos]

um this isn't the 50s

[prbj07ab]

wow im from norway and I was amazed she got that from Oslo Im impressed!

[arhaznook]

In the old days people knew more as general knowledge was promoted. Today most people know all the lyrics to a lot of CDs but not much else.

[jasoncinema]

You're so damn right. It's a sad state of affairs.

[gooboo1000]

@arhaznook  FUNNY, SARCHASTIC, BUT TRUE!!!!

[WastedPo]

@arhaznook, I'm not sure about calling the 80's the "old days," like it was Victorian England, but what you say is actually very true. People really were smarter before the ridiculous culture of texting, cellphones and reality TV took over. They knew more about the world, history, politics and art, and they were just plain more intuitive, creative and curious. Nowadays you'd be hard pressed to find people who are semi-literate, let alone well read.

[mjb72]

@arhaznook - God Bless The Good Old Days!! 

[SueBeaWho]

Ummmmmmm? Oslo is the capital of Norway. That particular question was actually kinda easy.

Of course I suck at U.S. capitals and I live here! I guess the foreign caps come easier to me. Anyway what a great round!

[pokernutter1]

I don't recall the host, can anyone tell me who it is?

[sknyrd77]

Bert Convy. Better known for hosting Tattletales

[srf1969]

The fastest win I seen on the Alphabetics was when they had 28 seconds left on the clock but, I heard someone had 31 seconds left when they won the Alphabetics on Super Password.

[supermamaluigi]

"Ro-DAY-o".

[SkynDave]

I love how he says "wweeeeeeak?"

[EeyoreWhyBother]

This is shocking! Two American acutally knowing the capital of Norway...

[EeyoreWhyBother]

actually

[ModasuGawina]

Hahahaha, so true xD

[Maurayne]

I know !! I was amazed.

[Shintaka9009]

Gotta love how he screamed COLLEGE in her face.

xD

They make a good team, though.

[someman7]

UNIVERSITYY!!

[srf1969]

I've seen someone win the Alphabetics Round with 31 seconds leftover. This was on YouTube as well. The contestant had 27 seconds left but, someone had 31 seconds left when they won in Super Password.

[mubirshu]

That was on Password Plus (hosted by Tom Kennedy), with the great Joanna Gleason giving the clues. 31 seconds remaining.

[graperonto]

Joanna Gleason did it with 28 seconds remaining and then she broke her own record. Both those Password Plus clips are on YouTube.

[history775]

i bet she could see th reflection onhis glasses

[Coonface1103]

I think so too. That is unless rodeo is pronounced differently where she lives. She pronounced it like Rodeo Drive and where I'm from, it's pronounced RO-dee-Oh not ro-DAY-o.

[vw77]

quiet= opposite

loud= synonym

?

[KoopaKid17]

Opposites and synonyms are allowed on Super Password. On its predecessor, Password Plus, opposites were amended to illegal clues months after its premiere. The 80s Pyramid versions I believe was when synonyms became illegal.

[MGG75]

That wasn't a "impossible" mission, now was it?...LOL

[gameshowluvr86]

I know that lady! She was on The New $25,000 Pyramid in 1982 and won $10,000 with Dallas's Cliff Barnes (Ken Kercheval).

[viewdis200]

Just like Billy Crystal.

[gameshowluvr86]

That was on Pyramid, though.

[DesiluTrek]

Greg Morris was a terrific game show player. RIP, Mission: Impossible's Barney.

[pressmin]

There is another instance where Johnathon Prince celeb completed with about 28 seconds left.

[tvtimetravel]

I wonder how she could've gotten "Quaker" with "Mormon". "Oats" would've been the most definitive clue.

[ChrisZaney]

She only guessed wrong one time, pretty tough time to beat.

[pjkrahn0202]

Great win!!!! On myspace, there is a video of Natalie Steel winning $25,000. She was the one that won the Tournament of Champions and ended up winning $106,000 total. She had 25 seconds left on the clock (another great win)

[TVLubber]

Yeah, and she was the biggest winner in the history of Password (ONLY due to the tournament, which, for some strange reason, was never done again). The biggest non-tournament winner is some male player, who, BTW, won a record $12,000 Cashword, and $45,000 on his first Bonus Round. He ended up with over $84,400 in cash! And if there'd been another ToC, he would've definitely won that, and become the biggest all-time winner. But at least M$P might crown a new Password king.
