	Game show - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A game show is a radio or television program, involving members of the public or celebrities, sometimes as part of a team, playing a game, perhaps involving answering quiz questions, for points or prizes.
		In the US, television game shows fell out of favor in the 1950s after it was revealed that favored contestants on The $64,000 Question, Twenty One and other shows had been given answers and coached by the producers.
		Although these shows appear to meet the third definition above ("a game that involves an element of chance or strategy in addition to, or instead of, a test of general knowledge") an interesting controversy has erupted over whether these "casino games" should be considered game shows.

	The game show
		According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a game show is a “television program on which contestants compete for prizes in a game (as a quiz).” The year this definition was entered–1958-- is significant because it was the time of the now infamous quiz show scandals which were, in fact, a coming of age for television entertainment.
		The latest addition to the game show scene (2001), originating in Britain, as did Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, is The Weakest Link, hosted by a stern, red-headed combination of school mistress and dominatrix, Anne Robinson, now a celebrity in her own right.
