Remote Control/Trivia

---

• Dueling Shows: With Couch Potatoes, but this show came first and lasted longer.
• Hey, It's That Guy!: This show helped launch the careers of Colin Quinn, Adam Sandler, and Denis Leary.
• Hey, It's That Sound!: A good number of them were used on some of Nickelodeon's game shows (naturally, since they were also produced by MTV). For example:
  • The "wrong answer" buzzer was used on Double Dare, among others.
  • The siren used when time expired in the Bonus Round was used when the Brain Bender was solved on Think Fast.
  • The Lightning Round sometimes ended with the win sound from Double Dare and Make the Grade.
• Missing Episode: Parodied, when Ken supposedly unearthed an episode from 1975.
• Promoted Fanboy: Ken Ober.
• Prop Recycling: The show used props from earlier seasons as decorations in the Studio Audience during later seasons. Props from Finders Keepers (also a Nickelodeon game) occasionally appeared, but usually as basement clutter.
