>Hi Kevin,
>I was looking for the answer myself. I know it was a daytime show on NBC. I think it was late 50’s . Another stunt dumped flour on a contestant. I saw the final show when the flour stunt ended with a spark and exploded the flour. Their were shouts and the cameras went black. After a few minutes the anoncer came back on and said everything was ok but the show ended then and never came back.
Anyone know the name of the show?
Thanks
