<p>I always liked Ken Ober.  I also always liked this show because the contestants got to eat popcorn.</p>
<p>But weren&#8217;t late 80s game show prizes the worst?  They just don&#8217;t hold up.  A video word processor?  They were so close to a computer!  And between <em>Remote Control</em> and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fS4EiQ4U7k&amp;feature=related" target="_blank"><em>Double Dare</em></a> I think Casio gave away more keyboards in the 1980s than they actually sold.</p>
<p>Anyway, it&#8217;s a shame.  Hope <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHCQk4CrkfQ" target="_blank">John Sencio</a>&#8216;s doing okay.</p>
<p>(And yet all those insipid wastecases on the <a href="http://www.challengedailies.com/Video/The-Naked-Run/0A4E2FFFF0183BC5C001B00D49BFF" target="_blank"><em>Real World-Road Rules Challenge</em></a> continue to live happy, healthy lives.  And <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuaE4Wybgl4&amp;feature=related" target="_blank">Jesse Camp</a>, I assume)</p>
