Since my hiatus, Buzzr announced that the short lived yet long forgotten series
Strike it Rich hosted by Joe Garagiola that some episodes would be available for streaming on Amazon Prime (they have several other titles, both on and off the network). Although it took some time to get on there, they're finally there. Prior to that I watched the premiere episode of the show. I have to say I was actually kind of let down by the show. It's not bad by any means (meaning I'd choose it over Louie Anderson's
Family Feud or
Supermarket Sweep in an instant), but it's kind of a dull show. It just wasn't terribly exciting. And the play along factor (except in the bonus game) is mostly absent. So needless to say, I'm not too excited about this one. And it's a shame, mainly because I enjoy Joe Garagiola. Two of his previous shows (
He Said, She Said and
To Tell the Truth) he did very well at. I feel this game wasted his talent. Oh well. Oldies fans, I hope you enjoy this to your hearts content.
I see you've finally seen and reviewed the show, Sam. I personally felt it deserved better than what it got. After all, it was a huge hit in the UK.
