I used to like TPiR.

They're entertaining, although most often staged. They've had so many actors on them before they were famous.

I always enjoyed Card Sharks. Seeing people guess if the next card was higher or lower was good fun, especially when they got stopped by an 8 or 9.

I've been falling asleep to episodes of Pointless lately.

They're not staged in the sense that they're rigged. There are surprisingly strict laws about that. Contestants aren't randomly selected though.

They obviously choose contestants based on how entertaining/crazy they'll be on stage. But yeah I wouldn't think the games themselves are rigged.

I love game shows but I haven't watched any consistently since I was a teen. I'd always try to watch Who Wants To Be A Millionaire whenever I saw it was on.

My favorites are Solitary, followed by Mantracker. There was a "prison escape" one I saw an episode of once like 8-10 years ago but I couldn't remember its fucking name so I haven't watched any more.

Also, obligatory https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQvzoY9SaQY

I could go on for hours but to start I've always said that if I could bring any old game show back it would be 80s Scrabble.

I remember watching the revival of Weakest Link a while back, and thinking this concept sucks because the best players get punished instead of rewarded. It's too bad because Jane Lynch does an amazing job as host, but I can't stand something that mean-spirited

Most favorite would probably be Greed with Chuck Woolery.

Idiotest was another good favorite of mine.

Bummer that both of those got the axe. :/
