I never realized it until today... the "board approaches" music is part of the underlying beat to the theme song! You can clearly hear it at the end. That is such a cool detail that I don't think many people would ever have picked up on!
With this program about to be on the CW (in a new form), my narration: A 6-letter word, the clue is, something our host once saw on Disney... FUTURE!! It's the crossword game you've played all your life, but never quite like this... SCRABBLE!! And here's your host, Raven-Symone!
When I was a kid when there was no school on holidays, I remember watching Scrabble on NBC and locally on WNBC-TV in NYC after Super Password, it was good show.
Why does the opening animation always make me happy? And don't ya just love how Marc and Ray Ellis rrmoved the instruments bit by bit towards the end of the music?
My opening spiel if there was a revival: Chris Ahern: A five letter word, the clue is: A kiss on this makes your child ticklish. Audience: BELLY! Chris: It’s the crossword game you played all your life, but never quite like this… Audience: SCRABBLE! Chris: And here’s your host, Justin Willman! CLOSING: Chris: Scrabble is produced in association with Exposure Unlimited and is based on the Scrabble brand crossword game by Hasbro. This is Chris Ahern speaking!
A seven letter word, the clue is: It’s a thing of beauty. PAGEANT! It’s the crossword game you’ve played all your life, but never quite like this! SCRABBLE! And here’s your host, Chuck Woolery!
They missed one way to make this game show more competitive: add one blank to the tiles for each word in the head-to-head competition. The blank would be a wild tile, and would be out of play when the competition would go to speed word.
Only Marc Summers did during the Game Show Hosts Week. Chick played the game a couple of times, while Marc filled in as host. Jamie Farr did a pilot game show for Dick Clark and MCA-TV called Double Up, which failed to sell in syndication.

I always wanted to be on Scrabble, the rotating cube was so cool.

It unlocks a core memory
And if you go to the opening theme song, there were even more.
The only board game to game show adaption that didnt suck.
Only because the format was original.

one of my favorite game shows
same here and this theme song will always be stuck in my head forever
A seven letter word, the clue is: It’s a thing of beauty.
PAGEANT!
It’s the crossword game you’ve played all your life, but never quite like this!
SCRABBLE!
And here’s your host, Chuck Woolery!
I would like to see reruns of scrabble on a network.
Wish Buzzr would show reruns of Scrabble. But from what I'm hearing, Hasbro is saying no.
Exposures Unlimited says yes or no. Hasbro owns the board game. This was crossword game from the paper.

Do you have the 1984 Scrabble commercial theme?
So I guess Jamie Farr and Mark Summers filled in for Chuck at times.

@@toddwacha5108 Didn't someone else guest host when Chuck sadly had a time of bereavement?
@@wschmrdr Not that I know of.
Does anyone know what kind of drum machine was used on this theme?
SCRABBLE starring Chuck Woolery is associated with exposure unlimited. This is Jay Stewart speaking
Do you have The Theme song from 1993
I'm about to make it. Subscribe to me and click the notification bell so you don't miss it
Any chance you can remake Otis Comber’s Wipeout theme?
I emailed him, and even Otis Connor himself doesn't have his own theme.

@@VahanNisanian Well, you could find Otis' email. I don't know if he even has the sheet music for it anymore.

@@VahanNisanian So, perhaps we should check in with Paramount Music?
