Here's a classic episode of the ESP game show Just Men hosted by the late, great Betty White. Celebrity guests include Tim Reid, Tom Driessen, Martin Hewitt, Jay Johnstone, Tom Sullivan, Ken Berry, and Peter Tomarken. Also includes commercial breaks.

Thanks for posting the whole episode!!!!! I never heard of this show until today, when I watched an old Carson video of Joan Rivers' interviewing Betty White! Plus, that first topic was a lil risqué for the 80s too! 😭😭😭

Commercial breaks that are 1-2 minutes and no pharma commercials! Good old days.

Well there were pharmas, but they were no more than 30 seconds and provided a simple explanation of the product. They were almost always OTC and not by prescription.

It ran from January to April 1983. Did not last long I'm sure very few people would remember it since it was so short lived.

This was NBC's "Just Men!" starring Betty White, which was a short lived NBC Daytime Game Show Rick Rosner created and ran for only 13 weeks and 65 shows. And Rick Rosner later created and executive produced ABC's "Lottery!" which was short lived in the 1983-84 Prime Time TV season, and executive produced a revival of "The Hollywood Squares" with host John Davidson, which ran 3 seasons from 1986 to 1989 in syndication. RIP Betty White 1922-2021.

When this was aired on NBC daytime, I did not watch that episode because I was at Sutherland Elementary School with Christine Irons as teacher and Janice Lindsay as coteacher. Hey, did you know that Thursday, February 24, 1983 was my retro teacher’s birthday? Also, school lunch menu courtesy of the Glendora, CA Unified School District: Hamburger-Cheese Slice, Lettuce,_Pickle & Tomato, Tator Tots, Fruit Crisp (going to be on apple).

This is because it was so bad that NBC would rather forget it. It probably had a lot of production money poured into into by NBC executive only to be taken off the air in three short months.

Not to mention the other guy as seen in the thumbnail also had his own show, Hit Man, cancelled at the same time as this one. A least Sale of the Century was a hit, and buoyed NBC back into more game shows after having just Wheel of Fortune for most of 1982.

To the people that said they missed the show I'm pretty sure it's the beginning of it they say it was a daytime show. So there's a good chance you wouldn't have had a chance to see it unless you were homeschooled😂 or a homemaker. Or in prison.

@beccalove8791 Жыл бұрын

I learned about this show in Betty’s book called, “ Here we go Again.” She said Grant Tinker, the chairman of NBC, canceled the show because he didn’t like the fact that Betty was moving around on the set.

@pannoni8449 Жыл бұрын

Given what Monty Hall, Gene Rayburn, and Bob Barker did on their respective shows, that's just a lame reason for cancellation, as I'd assume it was just low ratings that did it in. Thanks for the fact.

It was replacing soap opera The Doctors in the noon slot, which had been running for nearly 20 years. NBC affiliates mostly preempted it for local newscasts, and if any NBC affiliates cleared it at noon, it was against established shows like Richard Dawson's Family Feud and The Young And The Restless. (In New York and Los Angeles, Just Men faced Family Feud and Tattletales). No wonder it could never get an audience.

Yes. She made an appearance on The Tonight Show just prior to it's premiere and Betty tried to describe her show and I knew right away it was a dud. Luckily Golden Girls was right around the corner

@andrewbarton2590 Жыл бұрын

It was mainly doomed by timeslot. NBC aired it at noon - which was mostly preempted by affiliates for local newscasts. If NBC affiliates did air the show at noon, it went up against Family Feud (with Damon Killian himself, Richard Dawson) and The Young And The Restless. In NYC and LA, it aired against Family Feud and Tattletales. Launching after the veteran soap The Doctors ended didn't help either.

Why was Betty running around for? They all have their own microphone. She could just stand still at the base and talk to all of them at once. Maybe this is why this show did not last long.

It replaced the veteran soap The Doctors as well, not to mention most NBC affiliates would not air it at noon due to local news, and those that did air it at noon meant it competed with Family Feud (then presented by Richard Dawson) and The Young And The Restless.
