[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 160660, member: 8"] The celebrity panel game show (any kind of game) was extremely popular in the 70s and 80s. They weren't really playing to win, they had to cause hilarity and entertain the audience. If they had one of the openly gay celebrities then you knew it was going to be mayhem. Everything was shocking and funny, and how we laughed and laughed. Re-watching the MOORDSPEL episodes I was reminded of the patience we used to have while watching these shows: the show ballets, the endless prattling, applause for this and applause for that. We had many other quiz shows (more show than quiz) and we always rooted for our favourite candidates - it was a very interactive experience. Most of these candidates were young couples (engaged or newlywed) and each time they won a round they could choose a prize - the refrigerator, microwave and colour tv sets were the Big Ones. ("ooh's" and "aah's" from the audience). But I digress. [/QUOTE]
