The Buzzr Beater question figures out which host of IGAS do you like best? It was a deadlock with Steve Allen and Garry Moore. Looks like you have to choose one. Another Buzzr Beater question after we tell you what happened on....
(song stops)
July 1, 1941.
The Brooklyn Dodgers are playing the Philadelphia Phillies at Ebbets Field on July 1, 1941, and the game is being aired on WNBT-TV (later to become WNBC). Before the game begins, TV viewers see this: a 10-second advertisement for Bulova clocks and watches. The ad shows a clock and a map of the United States, with a voice-over that says, “America runs on Bulova time.” This litte spot (which ran at 2:29 pm, if you’re keeping Bulova time) marked the advent of something much bigger — commercialized television. Earlier in 1941, the FCC had approved a plan to turn TV into big business. When Bulova paid $9 dollars to plug its brand, the plan was actualized. Every advertisement seen since (for betteror worse) has a common lineage in this moment.
And the ad went like this....
That began the birth of commercial television. What else happened? Well....
- As a one-off special, the first quiz show called "Uncle Bee" is telecast on WNBT's inaugural broadcast day, followed later the same day by Ralph Edwards hosting the second game show broadcast on United States television, Truth or Consequences, as simulcast by radio and TV and sponsored by Ivory soap. Weekly broadcasts of the show commence during 1956, with Bob Barker.
You heard me right. The first game show happened on that day. Since then, game shows have evolved into an art form. We go from What's My Line? to Super password. And today, GSN and Buzzr make up a combined 22 years of game show excellence. What will the next generation of game shows will bring? Only time will tell.
So, of GSN or Buzzr, which do you prefer? This will be your 2-week Buzzr Beater question. Get to it!
Thanks for celebrating a certain day in history. Any questions about today's show will be reached or suggest something will be at Facebook at : Pierre Jason Kelly, or @Johnny_Arcade on Twitter and we'll explain. Until then, it's PK signing off and we'll see you.....@ The.....
