The $25,000 Pyramid - although part of the "Holy Nipsey Russell Trinity" (along with Wildcats and The Wiz), no. I always found myself annoyed at the contestants. "How could you not get that!?1"
Jeopardy! - You'd think, that having hosted 3 Legion Jeopardy games on the DCMB, this would be a no-brainer, but, although I am fond of it, it's not my all-time fave.
Family Feud - No way! I detest this show, and, with the exception of Richard Dawson, all the hosts.
Name That Tune - Eh, when I watched this back in the day, I could never get into it, because all the songs were way before my time. "Tie a Yellow Ribbon"? Whatever.
So, of the remaining shows, which one is my all time favorite:
The $25,000 Pyramid The Dating Game Family Feud The Gong Show Hollywood Squares Jeopardy! The Joker's Wild Let's Make a Deal Match Game Name That Tune The Newlywed Game The Price Is Right Tic-Tac-Dough Wheel of Fortune Win, Lose or Draw

Newlywed Game - This show always cracked me up. It was almost the original reality show. Plus... "Whoopie". Heh. But... not my fave.
Match Game - This show was really great. "HOW GREAT WAS IT?" It was so great that it is my all time favorite game show. The cocaine fueled mania of Skip Stephenson, the faux demure naivety of Betty White, the [irony]barely contained sexual tension between Brett Somers and Charles Nelson Reilly[/irony]. This show had such a campy kitsch in such a high degree, all marshalled by the man born to be a game show host, Gene Rayburn, that I just can't help myself. I love it.
Nicely done, Lance, your question.

Quislet has it - his current favorite game is Dino Island. It is also one of my favorite games. You basically build Jurassic Park, and genetically engineer dinosaurs with particular characteristics. Train town is also a great game. You have to pick up and deliver cargo, but you have to have the correct type of car to do it. (You can't put livestock in a hopper, for instance.) We check both games out of the local library occasionally.
