The best game show ever!

No, Netflix just has a collection of 15 episodes from the original run.

The Mad Men ad men of Madison Avenue never could have created such a masterpiece of product placement in advertising. Even today, I sing to myself while walking down the cereal aisle, "If you're at the supermarket and you hear a beep, think of the fun you could have on SUPERMARKET SWEEP!" It was on the GSN one day (in the before times) when I was getting a pedicure, and I was totally memorized. Almost forgot to flinch when the technician went to town on my feet with a scouring pad.

Do all the extras you can--shopping list, coffee, look for a bonus, the stupid sandwich, can-stacking, and TV clue games from the later seasons. From just the first 3, you could start off with $450. Then, hit the meat and dairy aisle (like everyone else). Farmer John hams, turkeys, mozzarella cheese blocks, salami. Then baby aisle for diapers, formula, and medicine if its there. Health and beauty for medicine, metamucil, compound W, etc. I think the hardware aisle may be close to that, so I would run there with the extra time for hoses, hammers, electrical, etc. Get that bonus over the finish line before the bell rings, but everything else just needs to be in your cart to count!

For the $5000 game, read them aloud and look for rhymes. Usually the first two rhyme, and then the third one is totally ridiculous.

I liked that show when I was a kid. Will tune in

If you have Fios, it's also on Buzzr, channel 484. It's actually on right now (9pm). It is, literally, the best game show ever. EVER.

This is literally the best thing 2020 has offered so far.

I wanted to be on that show SO BAD. My mom and I used to race around the grocery store pretending we were contestants.

I’m with you, OP. This is my happy place.

There's a new version? Awesome!

I'm watching the original as well on the game show network. It really takes me back.

I always wanted to be a contestant.

You. Are. Welcome.

THIS IS ON NETFLIX???? I know what I’m doing tonight!

Thank you Netflix, for bringing back the BEST SHOW THAT WAS EVER ON TV. I love this show so much. A disproportional amount.

In this crazy, mixed up, complicated world we live in, this is my happy place.

I love this show. So much.

Simpler times, yo.
