- | + | The Show has many similarities to real game shows. The set is modeled much after those designed in the 1970's. In particular, the rounded rectangles, chasing lights, and orange shag carpet featured in the background suggest a reference to the ''[[Wikipedia:Match Game|Match Game]]'' prior to 1979. Homestar's mic is also similar to [[Wikipedia:Gene Rayburn|Gene Rayburn]]'s mic from the ''Match Game'' and [[Wikipedia:Bob Barker|Bob Barker]]'s original mic from ''[[Wikipedia:The Price is Right|The Price is Right]]''. The game [[Pom Pom]] and [[The Poopsmith]] are playing in email [[the show]] bears resemblance to ''[[Wikipedia:Tic-Tac-Dough|Tic Tac Dough]]'', a popular game show from the late '70s and early '80s. | |

Unlike The Show, The Show AM is a morning/tabloid talk show (like [[Wikipedia:The View|The View]] or [[Wikipedia:Maury (TV series)|Maury]]) instead of a game show. It uses the same set and microphone as The Show. The majority of The Show AM's audience is female, and the discussions range from fashion makeovers using simple items around the house (such as mustard) to angry confrontations among people in relationships. This also relates it again to Match Game by referencing the Match Game PM which aired later than the normal Match Game and allowed for less censorship. |
