When I was a kid I wanted nothing more than to be on 'Let's Make a Deal.' I had only seen one or two of them but I thought it was so cool you could wear costumes and get on TV. At one point I had the opportunity to sit in the audience of a cheaper version of 'Let's Make a Deal' that aired on late night cable – local access or something. As the host wandered through the audience looking for participants, it dawned on me that if I was picked, I would actually get on TV! A whole five people might actually see me! So of course, I sat there, eyes down, silently saying "Not me, not me, not me..." and he passed on by. But the allure of the game show, especially being a big game show winner – of the Ken Jennings variety - is still strong, although now I'm not so much interested in the glorified costume contest version. Thought this article: How to Get on a Gameshow was fun reading. I would have loved to have gone on 'Beat the Geeks' when that existed or something like 'Identity.' So now that you know how to get on, what game show will mark your debut?
