The Jokers Wild 90 (3 of 3)

[flclfan85]

I was at an anime convention a few years a go and someone was demo'ing a video game and the music coming from it sounded like the theme from this

[kambreesuncle2]

This was KCOP's afternoon game show lineup in the fall of 1990:

3:00 The Joker's Wild

3:30 Quiz Kids Challenge

4:00 Tic Tac Dough

4:30 Family Feud

By November, Quiz Kids Challenge was dropped. Moving the two below shows a half earlier while "The People's Court" aired at 4:30 and before the month even wrapped, TJW and TTD were gone too. Feud would move to KCAL 9 by the fall of '91.

Is e te first player to get 3 jokers?

[markdoublea84]

Hoorah for Michael! Joker, joker, joker in just 1 spin! Congrads to him. Guess his spending time in Vegas gave him luck in winning 8 grand.

[SuperGamer7]

At 6:15, that's Jack Barry's two sons.

[Rlotpir1972]

Wasn't this show taped at CBS studios. The audience seats resemble the red seats from "The Price is Right".

[Tubewings]

It is the same studio where they tape "The Price is Right," Studio 33 (now known as the Bob Barker Studio).

[Rlotpir1972]

The 1st part of the Bonus Round resembles "Child's Play".

FYI, most game show music fans know the music for The Joker's Wild 1990 was composed by Joe Manolakakis. What most people don't know is that, according to the credits, the music was also provided by Hancock & Joe Productions. The "Joe" of course is Joe Manolakakis, but the "Hancock" is the one and only Herbie Hancock. The Grammy-winning music legend. I found this info in some articles about Mr. Hancock on the internet.

Thats good info chrisbox51, cuz this is one of my fav game show themes.

[mpontheair2]

He kind of looks like Blago, but maybe I'm stretching it.

[mullethead201]

A win like that deserves a standing ovation.

[Nickle98499]

I totally agree.

[TexasTV]

They need to bring the Jack Barry and/or Pat Finn version of The Joker's Wild back on GSN!

[dgarcia207]

I'm so in agreement with that. Especially this episode with Patrick "Pat" Finn. This version of the Joker's Wild is the best, Jack Barry's is okay too

[johnissoevil]

Definitely underrated. I did like the 72-75 and 77-86 version, don't get me wrong, but this show did have a good format, even if different from the old one.

[trent100100]

this show gets more **** than it deserves. Transfer some of that **** to TTD 90 which deserves all the **** in the world

[rmenga4]

okay tiller can you do tic tac dough

[mtiller2006]

rmenga...I'm not the same person who posted this video.

TTD will be tough if I do it. But, PLEASE slow down on the requests.

[namk19]

c. c? c senor lol

[vnisanian2001]

An episode recorded off of my local KCOP-TV L.A. affiliate? Awesome, sigmafan, especially considering the fact that KCOP-TV used to air TJW and TTD back in the 70's and 80's.

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

by any chance do you have an episode of "the quiz kids challenge"? (i ask because at the end it said "now stay tuned for the new quiz kids challenge"

[sigmafan]

No, I don't. I am however planning on putting up another ep of The JOker's Wild 90.

[mtiller2006]

What episode did you have in mind?

[johnnyafairbanks]

Ironic that Joker's Wild '90 was on KCOP in Los Angeles...where they taped AND aired Joker's Wild '78-'86?!

[gameshowguy2000]

But they taped this version at CBS Television City, hence the addy on the contestant plug that JackBauer152 has on here.

[johnnyafairbanks]

Yes, TJW '90 was done at Television City; but in L.A., it was on KCOP where the 1978-86 version originated.

[gameshowguy2000]

Oh, and before I forget, the '72-'75 version also taped at CBS Television City.

[bellybutton4]

Do you Have Classic Concentration?

[TVLubber]

Or Supermarket Sweep (pre-PAX, particularly 1990-93 episodes), Shop 'Til You Drop (anything pre-PAX) or Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? Please? Thank you!
