Where’s our Press Your Luck ? I Love this game show. Loved it when it was originally on.
Hasn’t been on. Is it because of the Playoffs ?
How do I become a contestant on whammy?
I do hope this show comes back on. There isn’t anything else worth watching in my area. Currently TV sucks! All reruns of shows that should be cancelled or archived permanently.
What are the next 4 episodes in Season 2 called?
Yes it should be renewed I love the show. It’s great and fun to watch.
I love this show so much a friend bought me a T-shirt. I look for this show every week. This is by far my most favourite game show. I love to watch game shows but I love this so much I actually want to be a contestant so bad❤️I hope bring show back
I love that,show and elizabeth. Sure hope it’s not canvelled.
They need to renew this show not just for summer but all year round its exciting and very touching Elizabeth banks is a great host .
One Of the highlights of my week is watching Press your Luck! Elizabeth Banks is so energetic, enthusiastic and gets the audience involved that they cheer for all the contestants. I live alone but find myself yelling at the TV and cheering. I even react when there’s a whammy. Please keep the show on the air. There aren’t too many programs on TV that entertain seniors like Press Your Luck!
Can it be a regular show thought the year
DONT WATCH
This show is AWESOME. We never miss it. Elizabeth Banks is really good at this too. Who would have thought she would be the host of a game show…but it works!! Lots of fun to watch.
