A Game Show gimmick to allows home players to play the game, generally played during ratings sweeps periods, and usually by sending in postcards in the 1950s through the 1980s, calling a 900 Number in the 1990s, and going to the show's Web site in the current era. Generally the host will offer an easy first question, with harder questions to come. For a variant which consists of audience-only game play, see Phone-in Game Shows.

The Price Is Right: The Bill Cullen era had Showcases as its sweepstakes, where viewers could send in their total bid on a series of prizes to be eligible to win the entire lot. The 1972 revival did not immediately have such a sweepstakes, but re-purposed Showcases as the final round for the two remaining in-studio contestants (get closer to your Showcase's price in total than your opponent with theirs without going over to win). By the 1980's, the CBS version would begin holding "Home Viewer Showcase" sweepstakes from time to time, which were done much like their 1960's counterpart. Around the same period, the show also offered "The Phone Home Game", a pricing game where an in-studio and home contestant on the phone could split up to $15,000 in cash.

Both Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune offered phone games in the 1980s, played over a touch-tone phone. Wheel currently offers home viewers chances to win prizes from its "Prize Puzzle" rounds, which features cross-promotion with the Sony Rewards program as well. The Phone Jeopardy! ad is where that infamous viral outtake reel of Alex Trebek spouting his mouth came from, by the way. |
