Temptation (1967 US game show)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For the current (2007), unrelated game show based on "Sale of the Century", please see Temptation (2007 US game show).
Temptation was a game show which aired on ABC from December 4, 1967 to March 1, 1968. It was produced by Merrill Heatter and Bob Quigley. Art James was the host, and Carl King was the announcer.
In 1962, it was a game show hosted by Tom Kennedy with the same name. It aired on KTLA Los Angeles. It may or may not have been played the same. Not much is know about this version.
Three contestants were shown three prize showcases of varying values; each contestant secretly locked in the number of the showcase s/he wanted. The contestant won the showcase only if neither of his/her opponents picked it.
Five rounds were played; in the last two rounds, James would tell the players what two of them had chosen before they made a final selection. The player with the highest dollar total returned to the next show.
James always appeared dressed as a riverboat gambler, with tuxedo, ruffled shirt, and cigar.
