| Plot | : | + Hosted by the quick witted Groucho Marx this is a fun quiz show game in which three couples each have $20 and they can bet as much as that on each of four questions. The couple that finishes with the most money gets to go for the $1500 question at the end of the show. Plus if someone uses the secret word they win an extra bonus prize. It was said that the contestants did not care much for the money, they just wanted to see if they were shrewd enough to escape Groucho’s legendary verbal battering. Long-running comedy quiz show hosted by Groucho Marx. The show was the idea of a young producer, John Guedel; the idea based on an old parlor game. Three couples were brought onstage to be interviewed by Groucho. He would be, for once, quite serious. They were each given $20 and asked to bet as much as they dared on four questions from a category of their choice. If they won, their money would double. Therefore it was possible for couples to win either as much as $320, go broke on the first question or finish anywhere in between. The couple with the highest total went through to the jackpot question. It was said that the contestants did not care much for the money, they just wanted to see if they were shrewd enough to escape Groucho’s legendary verbal battering. Contestants include father of a brideMr Martin McHugh and mother of the groom Faye Levine, Butcher Jack Jeffries and housewife Mrs Helen Hall and bail bondsman Frank Duvolio and process server Robert Fergie. It's still as funny today as it ever was! |
