What are these game shows?

We found what look to be brief promos for five game shows at the end of one of our master tapes we had digitized. Looks like they are all US games shows (not sure whether pilots or actually produced shows). Our amazing subscribers to this RUclips Channel are super game show fans so let us know in the comments what you might know about any of them!

Everything about "5 of a Kind" looks and sounds great. Especially the fast Moog theme I must seek.
"Missing Link" might be based on the 1960s US version. No proof, just by title.

Television's favorite celebrity game show?
Hollywood Squares, Match Game, I've got a Secret, and to Tell the Truth all beg to differ... LOL

[@steelionx9255]

So do pyramid and password (all versions of those two)

[@gordonbeattie4864]

I love the look of Five of a Kind!

[@rickrhinoc9373]

I think there was another rare Canadian game show hosted by Mike Darow called Going Places where couples would earn "travel miles" to win a dream vacation.

[@Rlotpir1972]

And later, Jackpot!

[@notb98]

Going Places ran for years. It was syndicated from about 72-75, then came back on Global around 1978 for another year or two. I'd love to see a full episode!

Finally, I got to see what 5 of a Kind looks like! I can't wait to see full episodes of these shows. I hope you guys have Celebrity Dominoes with Paul Hanover.

Hi Eric -- What do you know about Five of a Kind? American? Canadian? Network show? This 5 second clip was found at the end of a tape of another game show we digitized so we don't have any masters of Five of a Kind.

@@BonusRoundCanada Five Of A Kind was syndicated in the mid-70s. Not a whole lot to go by, but it’s good to know that it at least aired somewhere and wasn’t just a pilot or something

[@ericsamuelson5656]

@@christiancarrion9017 I read the TV listings and it said "11 Five of a Kind" which aired on CHCH Hamilton, Ontario from 1974-76. From the looks, two contestants each have their slot machine. The object is one makes a better hand than the other and score points to win prizes. I wonder what Jack Barry's reaction was if he watched this visiting Canada.

[@notb98]

@@BonusRoundCanada Five of a Kind was a Canadian show produced at CHCH. Too bad more CTV shows of that time don't exist - like He Knows She Knows; Anything You Can Do, Headline Hunters, Celebrity Dominoes or early Definition. Would love to see those.

[@notundercovercop327]

@@ericsamuelson5656 There was a Japanese Show in 1980 that had a very similar set piece and game. I'm wondering now if that show borrowed the format from Five of a Kind. I'd never heard of it before seeing this. Great Find!

[@marcpower4167]

If it's the same show, IMDB says Double Exposure aired in 1961 and it involved contestants removing pieces of jigsaw puzzles and trying to identify a famous person in the picture behind it and hosted by actor Stephen Dunne.

[@zachhoran]

The clip looks later than 1961

[@SuperJSP]

Whiz Kids, hosted by Al DuBois in 1990-91.

[@fstrgray82]

I'm guessing pilots or locally-produced?

[@steve760]

Also... I can almost guarantee those aren't *all* US game shows/pilots; Mike Darrow never hosted any shows outside Canada (to the best of my knowledge)

[@WarioBarker]

Dar(r)ow hosted several US game shows, including Dream House (1968-70) and a few unsold pilots.

[@marcpower4167]

He also hosted the first season of the $128,000 Question which was taped in New York. When production moved to Toronto for season 2 Alex Trebek took over.
