Book Reviews of The TV Game Show Almanac
Book Review: Interesting, but handicapped by blatant errors.
Summary: 2 Stars
The TV Game Show Almanac is an okay choice for those who want to do light reading on the genre. It's main flaw is consistently blatant errors and other inaccuracies that can lead one astray. The Encyclopedia of TV Game Shows by Fred Wostbrock is a much better choice, and more interesting
Summary of The TV Game Show Almanac
Game shows are a part of American life--as easy as buying a vowel, difficult enough to require an isolation booth. They're as goofy as a brass gong, as ever-present as Groucho Marx's cigar, as unexpected as the prize behind door number three! This intriguing almanac features all the facts about the top shows, their hosts, their "lovely assistants," the questions, stunts, and more.Performing Arts Books
