Subject: 3 old shows

Written By: cdaddy10 on 12/12/02 at 10:33 p.m.

Ok i have these 3 old shows in my head and i think they were all from early 90s, one was one on PBS where it was like three shows in one. One part had 2 detective people, and another part had this pacman like thing that had to do with math. Another show was this video game show where at the end, a kid wore a velcro suit and they got to run around and stick all kinds of video games and stuff to themsleves and then slide down a slide at the end. And the last one, which i have the vaguest memory of was a show that had a couple teams and part of the show, a team had to try to work through a maze with one person wearing a virtual mask and the other one had to guide them thourgh the maze. This is really frustrating and hopefully someone knows what im talking about.

On the second one, did two players actually play different video games against each other?

yesh...the last one you mentioned...it was on the Family Channel, and one of the team mates had a walkie-talkie thing on his head telling the other guy how to get through the maze while he was blindfolded.  yeah, but I don't remember what it was called.
  Do you remember something also on the Family Channel with families with their dogs that had to go through mazes, and they had their dog do a talent show thing, and at the end, the winner allways got a year's supply of dog food? hehe.
