    I do recall this round when younger. This was the most exciting / anxious part then, as it is today. With a more exciting front-game, I'd give this a watch if redone in a modern format. Got to give Eubanks credit where due though.....he made these wins quite exciting, even for a 4-5 yr old as I was then. Sure, i didn't get why he and the players were all excited, but the strobe lights and "NBC win siren" FX were enough to tell me what happened. Thanks for the memories.

    Thanks for posting this to RUclips, I was in high school when Dream House came on and it was so cool to see a couple win a house especially via entering the correct combination, years ago I was thinking about requesting some1 to send me a video tape of a couple winning a house but I heard at the time when the show ended in '84 they gave away too many houses (I kinda of remember the houses had a value of $75-85K plus up to $25K for the land) which led to the cancellation (I could be wrong).

      The sad thing was that Dream aired opposite the 2nd half of the Price Is Right in most places. I will admit I did turn away from Showcases to see if the couple could win the house. It was the biggest prize offered on TV at the time.

    On the very last Dream House, they won the house. Bob Eubanks announced that it was the last show, and he literally threw the combo billfold away. When they returned from the ad break, Bob was sitting in the audience, and they said their goodbyes. It was a wonderful show well missed by me.

    Yes WDIV aired Tic Tac Dough at 7:30 pm as of April 4, 1983 when this game show premiered. Probably, when the nighttime Wheel of Fortune (WDIV's mainstay syndicated game show along with Jeopardy!) premiered, WDIV moved Tic Tac Dough to 11:30 am which may or may not cause WDIV in Detroit pull the plug on Dream House midway through the run.

    This is a guess, but I am going to assume that the reason there were only 2 numbers remaining in the top row is because of the fact that even though only 1 wrong number was removed from a row when one of the questions was answered correctly, (and i'm assuming that Dawn and Marty did answer the first question correctly, this was during the time period that the money machine was used, and on there in round 2 was a "no. off" square. which gave the couple that landed on it a FREE number off automatically IF they answered the question during which it was landed on correctly, of course assuming that said couple won the game as well.) and i am guessing that they did land on the square and win that question. we already know that they won the game.

I'm sad because my parents had friends that taped the show for them, they were on 4 of them, but due to my mom's hoarding, all was lost this year. She was the first wife to wear a mini-skirt on the show and to top it off it was red, white, and blue. She got a lot of whistles at the end of each show. They almost won, but my dad insisted on a wrong answer. Their names were Nancy and Fernando Serrano. I wish I could get the epis for my mom again, she's 81 years old.

    @kgrkid If they ever did do a remake of Dream House, I could see them using balloons and confetti, but not pyro. Too much of an insurance risk.

    I remember watching that show when I was a little kid. Even at the time I remember thinking this show was too far fetched. Also, that game show host is creepy.
    He keeps touching all of the women throughout the show… (haha)

    Unfortunately, after the show, this guy broke into the show's ultra-high-tech security system, was trapped by the intricate system of booby traps, went to prison, and was repeatedly raped by a huge man named Molly. His wife went insane and burned the house down.

    The odds weren't incredibly slim. If you removed no numbers, the odds were 1 in 64. If you answered enough questions to have only 3 numbers on each line, the odds were 1 in 27. If you had only 2 numbers on each line, the odds were down to 1 in 8.
