Kelly Ripa To Host ‘Generation Gap’ Game Show At ABC From Jimmy Kimmel & Mark Burnett
- Thread starter Y2kTheNewOldies
- Start date
Is this a revival of the 1969 game show which marked Jack Barry's return to network television?
He replaced Dennis Wholey for the last five weeks of that show. For those who don't remember
it, it pitted two three-member teams (one of under-30s and one of over-30s) to see who knew
the most about the other team's generation. More often that not the under-30s knew more
about the opponents' generation than vice versa.

The article explains what it is.
VH-1 aired a game show called "My Generation" in the late '90s. It pitted two members, say of the class of '79, against two members of let's say, the class of '93. The host would ask questions about music from both eras. Answering questions from the era that wasn't your own would get you extra points. This aired around the same time that "Rock and Roll Jeopardy" did.
This show also sounds similar to the Bob Eubanks hosted show Trivia Trap from 1984.
I wasn't going to watch this but I saw a commercial and it does sound quite appealing to see kids not knowing people I know, and people my age not knowing stars from today.
