My personal fav is Press Your Luck. No whammies, No whammies, No whammies...priceless.

Wow .Thats great your mom was a contestant on Let make a Deal.What was she dressed up as.

Lets Make A Deal with Monty Hall was one of my game shows along with Price is Right and the Match Game.

You can search Youtube for Lets Make A Deal and you might be lucky to find the show with your mom on it.

Heres some shows I found by searching Youtube.

My 8th grade science teacher was on "Let's Make A Deal". He won "a lifetime supply of snickers". So for the entire 2nd semester he'd give out snickers bars after each exam. You'd get 1 snickers bar for each right answer. I stocked up on snickers that year!

My favorite game shows are:

Jeopardy (I remember watching it way back when Art Fleming was the host and Don Pardo, later the announcer for SNL, was the announcer)

Wheel Of Fortune (again, watched back when the host was Chuck Woolery & the Letter Turner was Susan Stratton...then along came Pat Sajak who was doubling as KNBC LA's weekend weatherman...and Vanna)

Match Game (ok, showing my age again...I remember when there was another host (Bill Cullen?) and Gene Rayburn was one of the panelists...wasn't until the '70s that Gene took over hosting duties)

PDQ This was hosted by Dennis James...the contestants would sit in soundproof booths while their teammates would use the minimum amount of letters to get the phrase across. Kind of like Scrabble meets State Auto Vanity License Plates.

Password The original with Allen Ludden just can't be topped.

(enter $ amount here) Pyramid The ones hosted by Dick Clark were the best.

Some of my all-time favorite game show hosts, regardless of what game they were hosting:

Alex Trebek
Jack Narz
Tom Kennedy
Bill Cullen
Bert Convy
Larry Blyden
Bob Eubanks
Tom Bergeron

I should totally do the YouTube search some more. She was dressed up as a giant Xmas package. She was very young, and had very natural red hair. Lucille Ball red. She was so cute, and so polite, and she says Monty was such a smooth operator. lol. Weren't they all back then?!
