The show "Blockbusters" originally aired in 1980 and quickly became a fan favorite due to its fast-paced, game show format. The game was played by contestants answering questions to move across a board of hexagons. The goal was to be the first to form a vertical line from the top of the board to the bottom, symbolizing a connection between their starting point and the finish line.

Season 1 episode 46, also known as Blockbusters 1981 - Episode 145, continued the show's tradition of pitting two contestants against each other. In this episode, the two contestants were a returning champion who had won two games already and a new challenger vying for the chance to take home a cash prize.

As the show began, the host Bill Cullen introduced the returning champion and the new challenger, setting the stage for an exciting competition. The returning champion discussed their previous victories and how they prepared for this third game in the hopes of bringing home more cash prizes.

The contestants were then introduced to the board, which contained a variety of letters and hexagons. As they answered questions correctly, the contestants would claim the corresponding letter on the board and move towards forming a vertical line. The excitement of the game was heightened by the tense music and the pressure placed on each contestant to perform well.

Throughout the episode, the contestants were challenged with a range of questions, covering various categories such as history, geography, sports, literature, and science. The contestants had to be quick on their feet and think logically to answer questions correctly.

As the game progressed, one contestant managed to take a lead over the other and was close to forming a vertical line. However, the other contestant refused to give up and came back with a series of impressive answers to stay in the game. The competition remained extremely close throughout the episode, keeping the audience engaged until the very end.

Ultimately, the winner was announced after both contestants gave their final answers. The winner was awarded with the cash prize and the opportunity to return to the show to continue their winning streak.

Overall, Blockbusters 81 season 1 episode 46 was an exciting and tense competition between two contestants who demonstrated their knowledge and quick-thinking skills. The show's format and presentation made it an engaging watch, even for those who are not particularly interested in quiz shows.
