Was anyone here around when that big scandal about game show rigging occured back in the fifties?
What were your thoughts about it?

I was only about 6 or 7 when the shows were broadcast, so I guess I didn't have any real thoughts about it all, but I distinctly remember watching (with my parents) some of them, the $64,000 Question, and 21 also.  But even at that age, I had an odd feeling about some of the shows, as if something wasn't quite right.  Maybe a child can see things adults sometimes cannot.

Etch, yeah I admit, I'm surprised no one else thought it was a little sus that someone had won in 11 consecutive weeks.
