  • Funny Moments: Many of the skits, but also Geoff's attempts to break Emile's stone-faced demeanor at the end of each show.
    • A contestant is asked to drink a cup of water from a "fountain of youth", which contains a little surprise. Geoff, of course, handles it like a boss (and Johnny also plays along).
  • Awesome Moments: There was reportedly a 1970s episode that had two $25,000 wins.
    • Rose's $50,000 win in the 80s version, which broke a long streak of shows with no grand prize winner that included two different women passing it up. She nearly made good on her promise to "tear the whole place apart" if she won.
  • Tear Jerker: Any time a contestant turned down the grand prize; happened twice in the 1970s and twice in the 1980s.
