This summer I am living in a camper, and like most campers there is no WiFi. However, I do have a nice small TV, where I get three channels. But that's okay because I get to watch the best shows of all: game shows. They are the most underrated shows of this generation. So, I have taken it upon myself to rate the five game shows that are continually on repeat in my camper.
1. Jeopardy
Jeopardy is pretty famous. It has been around for awhile. Teachers use this as a base to make educational games, for example, reviewing for tests. So, whenever I watch this show, it takes me back to middle school and high school.
Rating: 2.5/10
2. 500 Questions
This is a new one, or at least new to me. I am still not sure how this one works. From what I can tell, geniuses have five seconds to answer a question from a category of their choice. And that continues, but there is also another contestant onstage that can answer the wrong questions. Then there is a battle in each category where the participants go against each other listing answers to a question. It's confusing, and I don't think it'll last, but when watching the show with friends it is entertaining.
Rating: 8/10
3. Wheel of Fortune
The classic game show. The best of them all. The one that reminds you of your grandma because she used to make you watch it with her as a kid. It's a good mindless show to watch in the background, but easy enough to get really into it.
Rating: 8/10
4. Family Feud
The funniest of all the game shows. Steve Harvey, despite what people say, is hilarious. It's the most candid of all the game shows. I could watch the families on here for hours. Everyone is always just goofing off and having a grand ole time. The show will have you laughing for hours. The questions are unpredictable, and the best part is you can answer them in your head and see how well you would actually do on Family Feud.

5. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire
I got weirdly jealous that Chris Harrison is the new host of this show. I felt like I was cheating on the Bachelor. I decided I couldn't keep watching it once he used the word dramatic. Chris, stick to what you know, helping people fall in love. I also felt as though the questions were easy and that a middle schooler could answer them with the process of elimination. There was always one option that was way out there, so you knew it had to be wrong.
Rating: 5/10
All in all, game shows are where it is at, and if you don't watch them, you definitely should start. And you should probably watch Family Feud all the time.
