Which of these did you find to be the most upsetting?

[SuperSailorOutlawGeorgeIshaq]

Even if the 1st game show didn't say anything about not cheating, the contestant still should've known not to cheat

[SithScribe]

HOW do you not put the scandalous Who Wants To Be A Millionaire fiasco on this list?!? I wasted nearly 18:00 just trying to show my wife about it lol

[williamcrowe]

I hope I never become a game show contestant. 'Cause either I'd be accused of cheating or they'd try to cheat me if I had won.

[ResidentKlinton]

Ketchum such a poetic last name for that guy 😂

[bleedingcuppajoe]

8:04 - Now while he is dead, i think. I still think that was a bad response.

[simonpearn]

Wheres the Major Charles Ingram scandal from 'Who wants to be a Millionaire' here in the UK? Or is that a quiz show??

[kermitTHEdinosaur]

Surprised you didn't talk about the Dating Game Scandal that Alcala!

[thegoldfly]

Poor Conger, she had to pose in Playboy to try to get people to just leave her alone.

[JoeCool]

What about the Dating Game? That show had a true blue serial killer who won the date!

[mykec.selene]

No matter where the money is, there will be greed and corruption!!!

[COMPFUNK]

I have seen every episode of Great Food truck Race and I do remember when Korilla BBQ got disqualified for cheating. But to explain that they teamed up with another restaurant to serve meat during the challenge where serving meat wasn’t allowed? Sir, that’s still cheating.

[WhatThePlastic]

Can you guys make a video on the quiet place.

[horrorluver]

The Peruvian or Brazilian (I forget) version of The Moment of Truth led to the female contestant to be murdered by her boyfriend who was on the show with her. She won.. but at what cost.

[Brago]

By adding an extra T to their Final Jeopardy response, Thomas Hurley and Ben Chan were wrong, plain and simple; no scandal involved. That extra letter changed the pronunciation of the word and therefore could not be accepted. In Thomas's case, however, the winner of that show had him covered by a healthy margin so it would not have mattered anyway.

The Southern girl on Wheel of Fortune: similar deal. When you solve the puzzle every word shown on the board must be pronounced correctly; nothing added or omitted. By dropping the G in Swimming, her answer could not be accepted; no scandal involved. Yes she's from the South and that's the way she speaks, but rules are rules.

[rosario]

You can't measure on Project Runway??? Boy tough crowd

[amberjohnson]

What about when Dustin Diamond cheated on Celebrity Fit Club by also drinking a ton of water to gain weight and his trainer really laid into him after his weigh-in. That was an EPIC shout-out.

[joshuagarbett]

Yes, very odd
I win a competition on ant and decks Saturday night takeaway, the prize being a trip to Walt Disney World
And mysteriously, somebody else (won) the prize

Very odd

[jamesmoss]

Moment of Truth cause lots of Divorces big time.

[bpark]

Are you kidding? Who wants to marry a multi millionaire was the greatest and maybe the only reality game show ever worth watching for all tge reasons you named.
