Todd Newton is a good game show host IMO. But before he did Whammy! The All New Press Your Luck, he hosted Hollywood Showdown for GSN. This show was kind of like the pop culture version of the old game show Jackpot. This was actually a very good show. In 2000, it aired on PAX and GSN. The game had 7 contestants for a whole week, who had different amounts of money. One player who was chosen would face off to try and get the box office (which was always something $13,595. Whoever got 3 questions right out of multiple choice questions (there were 3 choices).
I liked the show. I remember first watching on GSN after it replaces 1980's reruns of Wheel of Fortune on weekday mornings back in 2004. I liked the show, and thought it was good. I would love for GSN to bring that show back. It was good. It was removed in 2005 when GSN decided to go older in daytime. It was last seen on the 50 Greatest Game Show Countdown in 2006. I liked it. Come on GSN, you seem to have really gone on Todd Newton Whammy! love, how about airing this again.
