Gotta agree with the previous correspondent's who listed Treasure Hunt as their favourite. It was probably my real favourite too, in the Rice as opposed to Croft era.

The Great Egg Race and Now Get Out of That!. They both had me hooked even though I was only an innocent young child at the time ( lol ). Oh and Micro Live 
AM
For me it had to me MOnday nights on Granada - when they showed Run the Gauntlet - now that was a celebrity-gameshow that even still beats todays ilk.
Apart from that all my previous ones have already been mentioned except for.... (unless I missed them earlier!!)
Knight Rider
Street Hawk
Fame
The Dukes of Hazard
Hold Tight (cvhildren's gameshows set at Alton Towers)
Your Mother Wouldn't Like That (or something along those lines)
Cheggars Plays Pop! (didn't that play during the 80's)
The Tube
The Chart Show
Runaround
Worzel Gummidge (just) and its NZ seqel - Worzel Gummidge Down Under
POB (now that was a very surreal pre-school series which atrracted many university students!!!)
V - The Miniseries, V - The Final Battle, and V - The Series
Miami Vice
But probably the US show of all time has to be (IMO) The Equalizer (US spelling and not UK spelling)

I agree You're Mother Wouldn't Like It ( and it's spin off Palace Hill ) and Hold Tight ! were great. Oh the days when ITV made children's programmes...

Cheggars plays pop - I forgotten all about that! - turns out it ran into the 80s (1977-1982).

It is rather good a poor follow up to the Young Ones but pretty funny in places. Can't imagine why the BBC decided to never repeat it again.

I think The Generation Game - the Larry and Isla years - is much underrated. I still laugh when I see them trying to morris dance etc.
