While looking at the statistics for my website today, I saw that someone had used the search term “Plantagenet game shows.” So naturally, I decided that just in case the searcher tries again, it was time to create some Plantagenet game shows. And being the bighearted soul that I am, I’ve created a few Tudor ones as well. Here, therefore, are some royal game shows and their hosts (the shows are taken from a Wikipedia list of American game shows):
Edward II: “Just Men!”
Edward III: “The Name’s the Same”
Henry VI: “Family Feud”
Elizabeth Woodville: “The Love Connection”
Edward IV: “Studs”
Edward V: “The Big Surprise”
Richard III: “I’d Do Anything”
Elizabeth of York: “How’s Your Mother-in-Law?”
Henry VII: “Show Me the Money” (alternative, “Okay, Mother”)
Henry VIII: “Your Number’s Up”
Catherine of Aragon: “He Said, She Said”
Anne Boleyn: “Love Me, Love Me Not”
Jane Seymour: “You’re in the Picture”
Anne of Cleves: “Next”
Katherine Howard: “I’ve Got a Secret”
Katherine Parr: “Whew!”
Susan, these are so funny! I don’t know which one I like the best!
Ah, here you’re hiding. 🙂
I’m sure someone needs a House Makeover, too, or Become A Millionaire, requires the help of the Super Nanny (Henry II and Eleanor?) or wants to say Goodbye England and start over somewhere else where the sun is brighter. And how about a suitable candidate for England’s Idol (didn’t Richard Lionheart play the harp?) 🙂
Thanks, Amy!
Gabriele, sounds good to me!
