The Newlywed Game/TNG in Popular Culture

The Newlywed Game (which appropriately enough was also the name of the episode in general) was featured in a 1981 episode the short-lived sitcom The Brady Brides, a spin-off of The Brady Bunch. It all started when Bob Eubanks had car trouble and he ended up parking in front of Marcia, Jan and their husbands Phillip & Wally's house. He went in and asks them to use their phone. Pleased by their kindness and hospitality, Bob invited the couples to play The Newlywed Game; Phillip hoped to win a new aquarium for his guppies. But when they got to the show and played the game, things were unpleasant, unreliable & uneasy, not to mention embarrassing, but very hilarious. Both couples ended up losing the game but they did manage to make up when they returned home.
