i don't even know the rules, where the hell was this magical store with gently caress off giant wheels of cheese and enormous hams that were like $5-7 each that these bored rear end housewives were filling carts with instead of getting filled by poolboys

I don't know what the gently caress was so captivating about this show but I watched it all the time as a kid

Wasn't there a toy store version for kids?

Didn't like it because my mom and sister wanted to watch it during dinner when Seinfeld happened to be on.

I never understood why they didn't just go to the nearest aisle and throw everything in their cart, then go get a new cart and repeat. Or find a really expensive item and put the entire in-store stock of it in the cart.

Instead they seemed to have these stupid strategies that had them running around the entire supermarket grabbing 2-3 of each item.

Chains of stores had sponsorship deals to make the set look like their store. It was 3 different stores IIRC over the course of it's existence, two for the US one and one for the British reboot.

They only had a certain number of an item they were allowed to get, gently caress. Did you even watch the show? Smh

Uh yeah like 25 years ago when I was too young to care about the rules. Sorry I couldn't remember a minute detail about a TV game show that your mom masturbated to every day.

It's a shame these weird event gameshows didn't catch on instead of boring trivial pursuit Who Wants to be a Millionaire. I will never forgive you Regis.

supermarket sweep could only be better if they somehow combined it with married with children

legends of the hidden temple and original american gladiators ruled

in new american gladiators they took out all the fun stuff and also let our new breed of fatter americans run up the side of some of the obstacles so the eliminator wouldnt end on the very first one

Dinosaurs were sweet but I accidentally wiped them all out when pulling out of your grandma and splooging all over the ground. They started imitating her by licking it up from the dirt and apparently it was toxic to dinosaurs.

The match game isn't really a gameshow, more of a multi panel talk show where they are gracious enough to let 2 random normal people interact with the insane stars.
