A few addendums...
-- Actually, Welcome
Back, Kotter did a College Bowl-esque episode in its
first season, where Gabe hosts a "Kotter Bowl" between
the Sweathogs and four of the smartest students at
Buchanan High. All the questions were tailored toward the
Sweathogs' strengths - basketball (Washington), dating
(Barbarino), thug life (Epstein) and movie musicals
(Horshack). Naturally, the Sweathogs win.
-- I also
remember a Family Ties episode where both Alex and Mallory
appear on a TV quiz bowl show. Alex develops stage
fright, and Mallory becomes the unlikely star of the
show.
