Were There Ever Any Episodes Where All the Acts were Gonged?


In all the episodes of The Gong Show I saw, there was usually a balance between acts that were and weren't gonged. But just out of curiosity, were there ever any episodes where all the acts were gonged?

I seem to remember that happening once. I believe it was planned out. As you say, they usually tried to make it so only one or two acts got gonged in a given show.

Yes, I remember seeing one episode (I believe that the episode aired in either 1976 or 1977) on the USA Cable Network in which every act was 'GONGED'...At the end of the show, Chuck and Jerry Maren danced while Chuck shouted 'I GET TO KEEP MY MONEY!!"

I would love to see that episode.
