Scrabble

Show Summary

Aired: 1984 - 1994
Show Type: Live Action
Country of Origin: US

To date this is the most successful game show based on the board game. Scrabble pitts two players in a crossword round which uses the famous Scrabble board, along the way contestants can win money by picking a letter that falls in a pink or blue square and then identfy the word. The first to three plays Scrabble Sprint against the returning champion (in earlier episodes). The player with the fastest time in that round plays the Bonus Sprint for $5,000 plus $1,000 for every day it's not won.

Awwww..I miss scrabble soooo much. By the way Ieuan Crack, the show was awesome, and was actually quite successful. It would probably still be on if Chuck hadn't been the host(he even says this in the last show...which you can see in 5 parts on youtube.com).

I don't know why GSN won't bother to get the reruns of Scrabble onto their channel. Since there are some new game shows on GSN, I think there should be another GSN channel that only shows reruns of game shows like Press Your Luck, $100,000 Pyramid, Card Sharks, classic Wheel of Fortune, classic Jeopardy, and whatever other game show that was on in either the 70s, 80s, or 90s.

-To Chuck Woolery: I watch your recent game show Lingo on GSN from time to time. When I do, I think of Scrabble. I hope that the reruns of Scrabble will be on GSN soon.

Call me nutty, but I don't remember Scrabble being a game show.

This is one of the shows I remember watching with my mom during summer vacation. She had a whole lineup of shows she'd watch during the day, and this was a priority.
