:''This page refers to the American game show. For the song by The Fray, please see The Fray (album).'' ''Say When!!'' is an American game show emceed by Art James which aired on NBC television from January 2, 1961 to March 26, 1965. The show was a Mark Goodson-Bill Todman production and James' only game show for them. Wayne Howell was the announcer, with occasional substitution by Roger Tuttle, Mel Brandt, and Fred Collins.〔 The models alternatingly consisted of Ruth Halsey, Emily Banks, Gunilla Knutson, Carolyn White, Kristan Johnson, and Elizabeth Ames. Carmen Mastren was the show's music director.〔 The series aired live in black and white (switching to color in mid-1964) from NBC Studio 6A at 30 Rockefeller Plaza, New York. ==Game play== Two contestants, one a returning champion, competed. At the beginning of each game a dollar goal was revealed and four prizes were displayed. The contestants then took turns picking one prize at a time (when a prize was picked, another prize replaced it). Once picked, the dollar value of the prize was added to the contestant's total. The object for the players was to get closer to the goal than their opponent without going over. Once either player came within $250 of the goal she/he could "say when" (freeze), forcing the other to continue play until she/he either won the game by beating the frozen total or exceeding the goal and losing. One of the recurring prizes was the "Blank Check", which usually involved a grocery-related item. The contestant who chose it could select up to 100 times the product's individual cost. The individual price would then be revealed and multiplied, with its total then added to the contestant's score. (James' later game show ''Blank Check'' was not actually based on this "prize", but on adding digits to a four-digit cash prize.) A best-of-three match was played to determine the champion, with players keeping all prizes won outright. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Say When!!」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
