This was a very underrated show, IMO. I found the $2000 wins to be more exciting than most million dollar wins on certain shows these days.

stormking99 I agree with you 100%. Just because the show is low-budget doesn’t mean it’s not entertaining, as you said. 👍👍

Exactly i always had fun playing along with this show it was fast paced and never dull. Wayne Cox was an affable professional as host. Thouroughly enjoyed the show when i was young. Shame the show never lasted beyond 2 seasons, it was a good format in a then fading genre, most game shows outside the big 4 (Feud TPIR,J and WOF) Would be on their way out as the trash talk shows began to take over daytime TV.

30 years ago we were talking about Talk About on Fox 5, WNYW in NYC. Came on at I think 1:00, followed by Geoff Edwards and the short-lived Jackpot revival. By the way, this was the CBC version. The syndicators had other elements done for US audiences, like replacing the Grand Champions prize bumper with a parting gifts one. And the home game was sold here in the US. Happy 30th Talk About.

Talk About was indeed on WNYW I believe at the same time. I used to watch it when I wasn't in school. I barely remember the Jackpot revival but I think Graham Kerr's syndicated cooking show was on before this around this time.

Great show and great home game which I actually still have! Our friends and my wife and myself love playing it still today! I even mentioned that to Mr. Cox via Twitter and he was quite appreciative, speaking highly and fondly of his run as host on this show.
