I remember watching this episode on the USA Network, when they were airing game shows at the time. Tom, see if I’m wrong but if I believe you was the only contestant to win an automobile on the solo format of this show, and did you get that Pontiac Sunbird Coupe?

Marcello Silva I don’t think this could have been the next to last episode. Geoff mentioned that Tom had $500 in winnings which would mean he only had one win under his belt. I think Tom had 7 or 8 wins before the show came to an end.

If I were to bring this show back today, I'd mix the first and second formats together. First I'd have two teams compete against each other to guess the correct percentage until one of them gets to 300 points like in the original version. Then I'd have the two winning teammates compete against each other in the second round which would be played exactly like how the main game was played in this format. Whoever won went onto the bonus round which would be played exactly like it was in this format but like at the beginning of the series if you gave a percent and if it matched a percentage to any answer on the screen, you automatically won.

Who would host a Play the Percentages revival today? Where would it air? ABC Summer of fun and Games? FOX? NBC?

That's because a majority of the game shows on BUZZR are owned by Fremantle. Sony Pictures Television owns the rights to this game show.

Tom is the last champion on the last episode, as Mightydyckerson has posted the finale speech, so this is from quite late in the show's run.

A typical cookie cutter game show format from Barry-Enright. Person vs person. Host is across the way. Q & A. Win 5 games and get a car. Bonus round with prizes, quit before getting 1000 and see what would've happened. Same framework. Until Hot Potato premiered on a network (wow!) and they virtually used Family Feud's format.

I guess it could have been worse...to increase ratings, Jack could have made this into Celebrity Play the Percentages.
