Card Sharks

Um, produced The Beatles', uh, very first concert here in the United States at the Hollywood Bowl in 1964.

Did "The Newlywed Game" for 23 years, another show called "Card Sharks."

That was on twice a day.

Yes.

And this is my favorite one, Jeff, even though I don't even pretend to know who Jim Perry is.

But Jim Perry hosted Card Sharks, sorry, Jim, and Sale of the Century, and he shares a name with Jim Perry-

Oh

... who is Gaylord Perry's brother.

Very entertaining, very funny, and, uh, again, cannot believe it too is forty years old now.

And then we have Card Sharks.

Now, Card Sharks originally debuted in the '70s, the late '70s over on NBC.

Um, they brought it back, hosted by Bob Eubanks, best known for the Newlywed Game.

Don't know why they didn't bring Jim Perry back.

I forgot to look that up, as a matter of fact.

I don't know if I can find it really quickly.

If not, well, um, I, I didn't watch the new Card Sharks very often.

That, that to me just seemed like a not fun show at all.

But one of my favorites was card sharks and card sharks had two parts.

Are you familiar with card sharks?

I am not.

Okay.

This is just emotionally draining right now.

You know, just how bad it is.

But so if you're wanting to watch an old vintage game show where you're like, this would need some different shifts in perspective, right? card sharks um is one because i think you know there's a really funny like kind of tiktok thing happening right now where people put like a post-it with their number on their forehead and so people are like you have to ask questions of other people to try to help you guess what numbers on your forehead you know and i was and i was like oh that's it's blisteringly simple super funny um and it's like, then I think about card sharks and just like, so yeah, if you're wanting to get a little bit of like 1980s culture shock and stuff like that, like, cause there are times I say I'm a crusty old witch and there's just some things and, you know, and it's like, I think about shows like card sharks and how many of those shows I watched.
