30 years after winning (and NOT taking) the trip to Hong Kong on Tic Tac Dough, I finally went to Hong Kong! Over the years, my students have enjoyed seeing their teacher win the car on this show. Thanks for the memories.
The episode was taped in Feb. 1984 and first aired in the Los Angeles area in June. Friends from college (living in 6 different states) wrote to tell me they saw this episode on their TVs the following 5 months!!
Thanks Lena, I appreciate it, I thought that Strawberry Hill answer that John said was so funny, did you at that time? so you were on in Feb 1984, I thought the season finale was 5/25/84, I guess I was wrong, I'm usually good at figuring out daytime network shows airdates, but with Syndication, it confuses me, were you on any other game shows besides this one? I used to enjoy GSN when they aired (Tic Tac Dough), not these days I don't, but I've never seen your shows on there, only here on You Tube.
+Lena Kane Hi Lena! It's amazing to get the chance to talk to you! I've had this edition in my gameshow collection for 25 years! How much further did you get on Tic Tac Dough? And was Wink as nice as he seems on the TV?
+gbgameshows Wink Martindale IS as charming and warm as you see him on the TV show. I won a total of 6 games in a row, $11,000 in cash, and the rest in prizes (which the government treats as cash). I chose a red 1984 Chevrolet Camaro as my car, and drove it for 20 years! I loved that car, and the bonus was the story of how I won it on a TV game show. My students saw me win the car on Tic Tac Dough many, many years after 1984 (some were not even been born in 1984). There was a cable show called "Quiz Show" which aired reruns of old game shows, where the students saw me BEFORE the You Tube video was discovered. Thank you for your interest.
Hello: It has been 38 years since I was on “Tic Tac Dough,” yet sometimes feels as though it happened just last week. Time is a fascinating phenomenon. Thank you for watching me win the car. ~L
I am humbly touched by you having kept a video of my time on “Tic Tac Dough.” My copy of the 6 game days I was on TV was recorded on Beta (remember that medium?), I never owned a Beta player, so the internet has been the archivist!
@@lenakane5019 Wow! We had a Beta VCR - they weighed a ton! I had a couple of Beta cassettes with some Tic Tac Dough on them - it was broadcast here in the UK in the early 1990s, but only one with two of your editions! I play it occasionally to make sure the tape is still playable! Your editions were some of the first we saw of Tic Tac Dough and that built my love of Tic Tac and other US gameshows! So you were a trailblazer for me! ❤❤❤
@@gbgameshows Hello: Thank you for making me a Trailblazer! I have a long-time friend who lives near Nottingham and was delighted to be able to visit her in 2016, 40 years after meeting her and her family in Bath. Congratulations on having a BETA!!!! ~L
Hello: I just read your comment. When my family and students watched me (during the original broadcast of the TV game show), everyone mentioned how relaxed and calm all of us were in front of the camera. I can only speak for myself, I was TOTALLY nervous. In fact, I mentally placed all of that nervousness and fear into the palm of my right hand. At the break, I looked down at my palm and noticed accumulated sweat! It is the first and only time that has happened.... ~L
@@lenakane5019 I'd probably want to be on a game show like this instead of TPIR. Those crowds always seem like a riot. Maybe that show tapes at a bigger studio?
That's the second funniest answer I've heard on (Tic Tac Dough), John thought it was Strawberry Hill instead of Blueberry, first time since The 1979 episode with Judy after she defeated longtime champion Dan and then faced challenger Bob who gave a funny answer in "Nursery Rhymes" when he said Willie when the answer was Little Tommy Tucker.
Hello: A viewer asked where in the Philippine Islands am I from. Both my parents were Filipino (although it was a mixed marriage, as my dad was Visayan and my mom, Tagalog). I was born in a temporary US Army camp in Pasig Rizal, arrived in California at age 6 months. Thank you for your interest.
@@lenakane5019Also you just need to keep in mind that for the Jump-In Categories, you oftentimes need to wait until the Question has fully been read before pressing the Button in front of you.
12:22... I lived in Puerto Rico for a time; they also sell the ARIEL brand of laundry-cleaning stuff. And the LENOR ad after... that must be like DOWNY here in America.
I remember watching the 83/84 Season Episodes of TIC TAC DOUGH in reruns on Pat Robertson's CBN Cable back in the 80's before it became The Family Channel then FOX Family, later abc family and now known as Freeform
Lifestyle was a UK channel that started on cable and then broadcast on satellite also. To have a full show recorded with adverts from this station is amazing. Very nostalgic. The channel closed in 1993.
Hello: I just read your comment. Well, I only wish I owned a Corvette today. Since driving my 1984 Camaro, I have owned a 2004 Toyota Prius Hybrid and now drive a 2010 Toyota Highlander Hybrid. Someday, I hope to own a Self-driving car! ~L
Hello: I only now read your comment. Once I passed the audition to be a contestant on Tic Tac Dough, and knew I would be taped two weeks later, I purchased the then-new Trivial Pursuit Game. I studied ALL of the cards in that Game Box. ~L
@@Retrotv Hello: The audition was in three parts. First, about 200 of us sat at tables in a large auditorium, were given a 100-item questionnaire on trivia and were to answer as many questions in the given time allotted. There were a couple of people who finished answering before the time was up. When the time was up, all the answers were collected and then we waited. Someone announced names and those people left the room, including the people who finished before time was up! My name was not called which meant: I made it to the second level. This time about 50 of us were in a large room with desks. One by one we were interviewed, asked to say something about ourselves. A man was sitting in the corner taking notes. When everyone was interviewed, the two men left the room. When they returned, names were called out, and those people left the room. Again, my name was not called which meant: I made it to the third level. The next time we met, there were about 20 of us in a smaller room that had two podiums in the front of the room. We took turns and played mock Tic Tac Dough games. Later, someone called out names, those people left the room. Again, my name was not called which meant: I became a contestant on Tic Tac Dough! Two weeks later, I was to arrive at the television studio with six changes of clothing. Five games were recorded in one day, so contestants who won and continued to the next game had to change clothes to look as though they were there on a different day. [I recall the audition procedure in detail because for 31 years, I explained it in detail to every class (from 1984 to 2015 when I retired) when the students found out that I had won a car on a television game show.] To "study" for the game show, I purchased the then-new Trivial Pursuit game. I studied EVERY card question and its answer. Thank you for the question. ~L
Hello: For me, Tic Tac Dough was the best game. I had the opportunity to think of the answer without worrying about my opponent coming up with the answer before me. Jeopardy would have been nerve-racking, as one would have to beat two opponents to the buzzer in order to give the answer. I did not watch Joker’s Wild, so I cannot compare it to the other two game shows. ~L
Now let me explain to everyone what happened: When Lena Kane picked Double or Nothing for the win, she got the question right, but since the box was called Double or Nothing, she had to pick another box to earn not only 2 boxes, but also the win and so, not only did she get a vertical Tic Tac Dough on the left side, she also got a vertical block in the middle and that's why she had to earn 2 boxes when she picked Double or Nothing
Gail doesn't suck.Sometimes it can be tricky,even though you are supposed to pay attention.She tried,a shame,people make mistakes even on game shows,remember ,nobody's perfect,maybe there was a category she probably didn't like.

It would have been cool if the dragon hosted the show when Wink was on vacation.

21:33 is the Talbot Telegames logo. This was shown in a UK airing of “Tic-Tac Dough” which was aired in the US.
Look at How Big those Buzzers Are!
That game didnt need buzzers

That TIC TAC DOUGH Floor Sign was Removed Later in 1984.

What is the Lifestyle channel? and how did it get to air Tic Tac Dough in reruns. I thought GSN could only air TTD in reruns.
Lifestyle was a UK channel that started on cable and then broadcast on satellite also. To have a full show recorded with adverts from this station is amazing. Very nostalgic. The channel closed in 1993.

8:48... TPiR "Splendido."
Why didn't Gail go for the block
Maybe she was hoping Lena would miss her potential win and try for the win herself.

@@KevinDee1979 So what? Age is just a number! And btw, Trump supporters are sick f**ks, which means I'm not!

I got at least 20% of the answers right. I think I could have been great at this show.

I'm disappointed for John. I hope he listens to OD's, but his answer shocked me.
wmtw tv channel 8 monday to friday at 7 pm
Here in Buffalo, it aired on Channel 7, WKBW, also M-F at 7PM.
WMTW, which also reached Montreal and Sherbrooke, aired TTD until January 1983. It first aired at 7pm, and in January 1982, it moved to 12 noon.
