    This was Peter Tomarken's very first game show he hosted and Hit Man was a super nice NBC game show!

    They probably had to cut down the number of hit men from 18 to 14 for time purposes.

      Peter and Rod more than made up for this flop big time with Press Your Luck on CBS.Funny enough,Peter Tomarken would appear on another flop called Just Men.

    I can see why they put the number of hit men down to four, three, and seven by the time it became a series. It looks like it would have taken too long had it remained like this.

  • @donmccullen1973

    I am speculating that Jay W. was inspired by watching kids in the arcade and thought about those Pop Quiz's in high school. The teacher does a lecture and then pulls out a pop quiz.

    • @gameshowfreak2007
      @gameshowfreak2007 7 лет назад

      my understanding is he did do a pilot, but chose not to host because the network told him to lose 20 pounds and wear a toupee. Beginning to think he maybe just did a run-through.

  • @kristina80ification
    @kristina80ification 6 лет назад +1

    wish this was actually the full pilot rather than just clips, also this seems a lot more intense and hipper (for the time) than the actual show, if they kept it like this it might have been more of a hit and lasted past the first season.
