Trivia
Showoffs ended up being one of the cursed game shows in history. It's intended host, Larry Blyden, died in an auto accident in Morocco on June 6, 1975 between the shooting of the pilot and the taping of the first episodes. He was quickly replaced by Bobby Van, who had never hosted a game show before. Sadly, Bobby would die just five years later due to cancer.
