''Shoot for the Stars'' is a game show created and produced by Bob Stewart, and aired on the NBC television network. The show aired from January 3 to September 30, 1977, and was produced in New York City. During most of its run, it had originally videotaped at NBC's headquarters in Rockefeller Center, but some weeks of episodes were recorded at Studio 50 at CBS, also known as the Ed Sullivan Theater. ''Shoot for The Stars'' was the last NBC game show to originate from New York City. Geoff Edwards hosted the show, with Bob Clayton as announcer. Celebrity players included Pat Carroll, Peggy Cass, Peter Bonerz, Bill Cullen, Mike Farrell, Barbara Feldon, Anita Gillette, Anne Meara, Rita Moreno, Tony Randall, Lynn Redgrave, Nipsey Russell, Soupy Sales, Debralee Scott and William Shatner. ==Game play== Two teams competed, each consisting of a civilian player and a celebrity player. The game board consisted of 24 numbered boxes. The boxes contained either money values ranging from $100 to $300, a $500 money card, a "double your score" card or four stars. Each team began with $100. The challengers selected a box first, the money amount was revealed and the team attempted to decipher an awkward phrase. For example, the team was presented with the phrase "Sizzling/Canine" and attempted to translate it to "Hot/Dog". One member of the team translated the first part of the phrase and their partner translated the other. A correct response earned that team the amount shown. If they missed, they earned nothing. If a team selected one of the four stars, that team could wager any or all of their current score. A right answer added that wager to their score, and a wrong answer subtracted that amount. Control alternated between the teams until one team reached $1,500 or more and won the game (and exactly $1,500). Unlike shows such as ''The Joker's Wild'' on which full turns are used, the game ended if the challengers reached the $1,500 mark before the champions had an opportunity for at least one final turn to catch up. Contestants kept whatever they earned, regardless of the game's outcome. In the event no incorrect answers are given during the game, both contestants compete in the next game. Any contestant who won five games in a row was awarded a new automobile and retired with his/her winnings. 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「Shoot for the Stars」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
