But day in and day out, the most stimulating part of the work is being a member of a team of so many very bright, articulate and talented professionals.
From Randy West
For anyone who works in front of an audience there is no thrill quite like that of feeling and hearing the evidence of the audience members' enjoyment. Laughter and applause really are powerful.
From my years of work with so many game show production companies and their producers I'm probably no longer eligible to be a contestant on any American game show.
I can say without hesitation that there is certainly no greater show to be a contestant on than 'Price' - the prizes can be huge, and the whole world loves and watches the show. It's an American institution!
I enjoy 'Supermarket Sweep' because of its adlib demands in following the fast action.
I'm always most excited about the job I'm doing at the present, and that's especially true about 'Price' because of my respect for the show and it's production team.
If you have real passion for a career in game shows, be willing to serve an apprenticeship; it's the best way to learn.
It seems that no two people came to this specialized area of work via the exact same route.
Most producers I've known were writers first, and writing is a vital part of any game show. You could easily argue that the writing is the key ingredient that makes 'Jeopardy!' so great.
Of course watching a particularly exciting game or a wonderful contestant is always a joy.
