Axel Kyster, David Brookfield and Mike Stoops show their TV trivia nerdness on this short-lived syndicated game show. I believe it was recorded in late 1988 and aired in 1989. Thanks to Axel for winning us $5,000 in record time!

This show premiered in Syndication on January 23, 1989. (the same day Marc Summers' signature game show, "Double Dare", became "Super Sloppy Double Dare"; at that time, new episodes aired exclusively in Syndication, instead of on Nickelodeon) The final first-run episode was on June 9, and that was followed by 13 weeks of Summer repeats. "Couch Potatoes" left the Syndication airwaves on September 8, the same day "Double Dare" also left the Syndication airwaves, and began reruns on USA Cable on September 11, the same day as two other game show reruns in "Hollywood Squares" (w/John Davidson) and "Wipeout" began (they also left Syndication on September 8); the USA reruns of this show lasted until March 23, 1990.

Not only that Marc flew back and forth to do both shows

@IvoryM1986 2 жыл бұрын

So, 100 episodes were produced for this show, traveling back and forth from Los Angeles to Philadelphia was the first task when doing 2 series, but by the time the other moved to FL, Couch Potatoes must've ended production. Some markets saw the last glimpse of Couch Potatoes on August 11 and had to wait 4 weeks before seeing it again in reruns on USA.

This is an original broadcast, based on Joe Alaskey, the announcer, reading off the parting gifts. Towards the end of this shows' 100 episode run (May 1989, I think), Jim McKrell took over announcing duties, and redubbed the parting gifts on the Alaskey episodes for the Summer reruns.
