As big as talk shows were in the 90's and the so called reality shows are today, game shows were in the 60's and 70's. As I stated in an earlier post Nick Clooney (George's Dad and Rosemary's borther) was a local star by anchoring the local news and hosting local variety shows and talk shows in my area. However, he had a shot at being a national star when in the early 70's for about a year he hosted a game show called the Money Maze. Mark Evanier has an excellent post on it here
