The Show is Homestar Runner's supposed game and political talk show. The Show has many similarities to real game shows. The set is modeled much after those designed in the 1970s. In particular, the rounded rectangles, chasing lights, and orange shag carpet featured in the background suggest a reference to the Match Game prior to 1979. Homestar's mike is also similar to Gene Rayburn's mike from the Match Game and Bob Barker's original mike from The Price is Right.
