  • And did you know notice after the contestant won the $25K, all the monitors in the background read "CALM DOWN". Wow. Where on earth did you find this?

  • How about this.... LeBlang said he wanted to break into broadcasting on the west coast. He's at FX now in an executive role. Amazing what a $25K win does for ya.

  • I had been a huge game show fan for years, but I when I saw Whew (1980?) I loved it so much I cut out a paper game board and created my own cartoon "villians" to hide in it.

    about a month before Whew started started, Johnny Olson called down Tom Kennedy on TPIR as a "contestant" to promote Whew. It worked for me; I watched for the show to start and was a big fan. Wish it had lasted more than a year. Had trivia, comedy and strategy

  • @14DaveHunter I remember the first time I saw this show I was 9,and I asked my mother what is this show called and she said "WHEW" I thought she was aggrivated becasue I asked her that question,so I asked again and again she said "Whew" then I got mad and said "what is this show called" and she laughed and told me that's the name "WHEW"

  • Why not "You got Lucky" or "Greed is an Evil Thing"?

  • I loved this show as a child. I thought it was a children's game, for adults.

  • @jblakecubsfan "WHEW!" It's no joke, that's the real name of it.

  • What is the name of this game show

  • Hey Oswego!! I live in Rochester NY.

  • Thank you for uploading this amazing clip. The quality is astounding considering the age of this video. I just watched the big win and remember how much fun it was at 8 years old to see this show on days school was canceled due to snow.

  • @juan833blue I agree wholeheartedly! would love to see a new version if possible!

  • @nightfly776 I LOVED this show. Surprised it went off so fast.
