Remote Control was a TV game show that ran on MTV for three seasons from 1987 until 1990. New episodes were made for first-run syndication in 1989. It was hosted by Ken Ober and featured Colin Quinn, Jon Ten Eyck and Adam Sandler. Steve Treccase provided music; Kari Wuhrer and Marisol Massey provided cheesecake.
The show's premise was that Ober desperately wanted to be a game show host and set up his basement (at 72 Whooping Cough Lane) as a television studio. Contestants sitting in lounge chairs would select one of up to nine channels, each of which represented some topic. Sample channels used on the show were "The Jon Bon Jovi Network", " Brady Physics", and " Dead or Canadian". Contestants answer questions to get points. Occasionally, Quinn would have to spin the "Wheel of Torture" (with sections labeled " noogies ", " Wet Willie ", and " Purple Nurple ") and administer the torture to the contestants.
