- TriviaMany of the sound effects used in this show ended up being used in future Mark Goodson Television Productions shows (the one used for its first round answers was later used on Classic Concentration (1987); another one used for its answers would later be used on Family Feud (1988) as the one for its Fast Money answers; the one used for its wrong answers was later used on The Price is Right (1972) as the one for wrong choices in its "Pathfinder" game).
Featured review
Although I wasn't born during its original run and I never saw it during GSN's pre-1997 dark period, I think "Trivia Trap" was an underrated show that should be revived. Why? Because now that I have a few episodes from when GSN reran episodes of "Trivia Trap" from Jan. 2003-Mar. 2003, this show is very awesome and very mid-80s! The theme music is now one of my personal favorites and even though it was a regrettable move on the producers part in altering the format midway through its run, it still was a very interesting show! BTW, did I mention that the sound effects it used were used on previous and future Goodson show like the sound effect for when a team got an answer right in the first round (it was later used on "Classic Concentration") or when a team hits the trivia trap (it was the bad choice sound effect on "TPiR's" pricing game, Pathfinder). ABC unfortunately cancelled this and replaced it with the awful "All-Star Blitz"!
