Ewald Finds 'Bid 'n Buy7
Best of New Quiz Shows
But Clues Not Too Helpful
William Ewald
By WILLIAM EWALD
United Press International
New York UPIk At
this stage of the gaSfte it's
pretty difficult to be fair
when a new
quiz comes up
j for review.
This week
alone, for ex
ample, 23 new
t half - hours of
quiz shows
will be poured
into daytime
and nighttime
channels b y
the networks. In the face of
uch a bankruptcy in j
gramming, it's hard to evalu
ate each quiz on its own
merits. Lately, I've felt like
a man wallowing in one great
visual blob.
One of these new half-hours
made its debut Tuesday night
as the summer replacement
lor CBS-TV's "The $64,000
Question." It was an auction
game called "Bid 'N' Buy"
with Bert Parks as emcee.
I believe the show is the
best new quiz of the season,
but now that I look back at
that statement, I'm not sure
it means anything. There
hasn't been much competition.
And too, it could be that the
summer heat is affecting my
brain.
m r m .
Appealing uroup - 1 I i
Nevertheless, I will plunge ftj gyp ACClQeBl
Plunge one: I thought the
four contestants on Tuesday
night's opener were one of
the most appealing groups of
amateurs I've seen on TV.
They neither chuckled nor
shrieked nor fluttered nor
whooped nor faked excite
ment. They. were attractive,
well-mannered and reasonably
affable without any of that
nauseous jolliness that seems
to pour out of all current quiz
show guests.
Plunge two: The game .was
fast, well-run and fairly stim
ulating. It squares off the con
testants in an auction game
In which they bid in order to
get a shot at clues. The clues
help them identify a silhou
ette. Identification leadQ to
merchandise prizes.
Plunge three: Bert Parks
has shed his holler and whoop
de-do personality and I find
him a pleasant and efficient
workman. Parks a veteran
of "Stop The Music." "Break
The Bank," and "Double or
Nothing" whips along the
game and the contestants and
gives the show gloss.
Clues Are Bad
On the other hand, I sup
pose I should set up another
category called unplunge.
Unplunge one: I thought
some of the clues were awful
ly unhelpful, but it could be
that summer heat again.
Unplunge two: The sponsor
has his name displayed
around the set too much: He
is not alone in this offense,
of course, but it seems to me
somebody should 'start re
stricting sponsor plugs to the
regular commercials.
Unplunge three: This isn't
really an objection from my
corner, but I'm sure it will
be from the inkstained divis
ion of the TV audience: The
show has no postcard gim
mick there's no0way for
the greedy to get in on the
loot. Sad to say, that seems
to be the principal ingredient
that makes for a successful
quiz nowadays.
