Supermarket Sweep for the fun of it. Pyramid so I could redeem myself. I was on the show and was thiiiiiiiis close to winning $10K -- missed it by one stupid question.
What was the question?!?
I'm so embarrassed to admit it, but I will. The clues were Magic, Don, Lynden Baines. The answer, which is probably obvious to EVERYONE - Famous Johnsons. I just totally blanked, and instead of winning $10K, I left with $2,300.

Womp, womp.
Lol! We all have our game show doh! moments. I got eliminated on rounds of my gameshow because I didn't know which beer company used Clydesdale horses, which Levi jeans were the button fly, and how many dots the domino's pizza logo has.
I could also do Deal or No Deal. As long as you don't get greedy, you can leave with a decent amount of money.
Jeopardy is way too hard. I could do excellent on some categories (human anatomy, biology, American literature, psychology, African American history, those stupid pun categories, 1990-2000 popular culture, etc) but really horrible on many others (geography, world history, US presidents, the bible or any other religion, Shakespeare).

And if I had a better family, I could do really well at Family Feud. Maybe I could take on an entire family by myself. Insominac vs. the Henderons. lol

Don't be embarrassed! It didn't jump out to me at first. And you're lifetime game show earnings still exceed mine by $2300! Thanks for sharing, I love Pyramid but I'm not very good at it.
I was on Wheel of Fortune in 2001 and Who Wants to be a Millionaire in 2006 so I doubt I'll get another chance at a show.
Au contraire. In my experience, they like it when people have been other game shows. It shows that you've been vetted. How'd you do on Millionaire?
I won 25K. I was going for the 50k and had it narrowed down to two choices but picked the wrong one. I still had my "phone a friend" life line. I was on the show with Meredith hosting, but before the recent changes (back when there were just 3 life lines).
The question was:
Which of these songs was made a hit by the Four Tops, not the Temptations?
The choices were: (1) My Girl and (2) I Can't Help Myself
