Super Password is a classic game show that aired from 1984 to 1989. It was a spin-off of Password, which aired from the 1960s to the 1970s. Super Password followed the same format as Password, but with a larger cash prize and more complex puzzles.
Season 1 episode 37 of Super Password aired in 1984 and was titled "Super Password - 1984 - Episode 037." The show was hosted by Bert Convy, who had previously hosted other game shows such as Tattletales and Win, Lose or Draw.
The premise of Super Password is fairly simple. Two teams compete to guess a secret word based on a series of clues given by their celebrity partners. Each team consists of a contestant and a celebrity partner, who take turns giving and guessing clues. The team with the most points at the end of the game advances to the bonus round.
Episode 37 of season 1 featured four celebrity guests: Vicki Lawrence, Peter Bonerz, Tracy Scoggins, and James Stovall. The contestants were a woman named Linda and a man named Keith. Linda was partnered with Vicki Lawrence, while Keith was partnered with Peter Bonerz.
The game began with Linda and Vicki going first. The secret word was "comedian," and Vicki's first clue was "funny." Linda guessed "comedian" correctly, earning two points for her team. Keith and Peter then took their turn, with the secret word being "butterfly." Peter's first clue was "caterpillar," and Keith correctly guessed "butterfly" for two points.
The game continued in this manner, with the remaining secret words being "highway," "cowboy," and "wealthy." There were some close calls along the way - at one point, Tracy Scoggins gave the clue "bank" for the word "wealthy," but the contestant Keith guessed "safe" instead. However, both teams did well overall and the score was tied at the end of the game.
In the bonus round, the contestant with the most points (in this case, both contestants had the same number of points) plays for a chance to win $10,000. The contestant is given a series of passwords and must give a one-word clue to their celebrity partner, who then has to guess the password within a certain amount of time.
Linda went first in the bonus round. Her first password was "feather," and her clue was "bird." Vicki guessed "wings" correctly, earning Linda $100. Linda and Vicki continued to do well, guessing the passwords "collar," "brown," and "corner" with ease.
Keith then took his turn in the bonus round. His first password was "lettuce," and his clue was "salad." Peter correctly guessed "lettuce," earning Keith $100. Keith and Peter also did well, guessing the passwords "mushroom," "jingle," and "tub."
At the end of the bonus round, both contestants had each won $500. Bert Convy congratulated them and thanked the celebrity guests for playing. The show ended with Bert reminding the audience that "there's always more excitement ahead on Super Password."
Overall, episode 37 of season 1 of Super Password was a fun and exciting game show that highlighted the skills of the celebrity guests and contestants. The secret words were challenging without being impossible, and the bonus round added an extra level of tension and drama. Fans of classic game shows will enjoy watching Super Password and seeing their favorite actors and personalities compete.
