The one I remember was Bob Conrad having the NBC emblem on his shoulder saying to Lou Ferrigno, "Go ahead. I dare ya" (like he did with those batteries commercal) and Lou just knocked it off of his shoulder and Bob said, "Ok, I can handle that." and ran away.  ;D ;D

I remember SCTV did a great parody of this called "Battle of the PBS Stars." I don't remember too about of it, but the one thing that stands out in my mind was a boxing match between Mister Rogers and Juila Child. (Mister Rogers won the fight when he KO'd Julia Child by whacking her over the head with a King Friday puppet.) ;D

I don't think that they can do anything like this again. But it would be interesting!  ;D
