Game Show Revivals that need to happen soon

7. Shop 'Til You Drop

If your ideal game show is watching contestants get their daily cardio intake while winning fabulous prizes, then Shop 'Til You Drop is the game show for you. Hosted by the always charming Pat Finn for three separate runs, the format most people remember aired over the course of eleven years from 1991 to 2002. The game featured two teams of  two people with a pre-existing relationship competing to earn the most points by winning mental or physical stunts, followed by a 90-second "Shopper's Challenge" question round. The team with the most points gets the chance to Shop 'Til They Drop for the ultimate prize of a dream vacation.

It doesn't matter what decade or year you are in, Americans love to shop, which is why Shop 'Til You Drop would still make for a great game show today. Just like millions of people probably dream of frantically running down a supermarket aisle, it's likely that millions of people also dream of running around a shopping mall trading and picking up goodies from an array of different stores. Who wouldn't want to win a couch from "Von Schiffendecker's Furniture" or a crystal stemware set from "Heidi's Housewares?" Plus, the Beat The Clock-esque stunts combined with the trivia portion would draw in two kinds of game show viewers.

Sure the show was a bit cheesy at points, especially when announcer Dee Bradley Baker would dress up as a grandmother to participate in a stunt, but that's what made the show so much fun. The entire format allowed for viewers at home to play along and after watching contestants run up and down the stairs, you almost feel out of breath just from watching them. That might sound like a bad thing, but in fact it isn't because that means you as the viewer are totally invested in what is going on and might actually be jumping up and down hoping that the runner hits the bell. You might not be Shopping 'Til You Drop at home, but you still might burn off a few pounds because of the excitement.
