The Amateur's Guide to Love was a relationship game show.
Opening monologue by Gene Rayburn[]
- This little truck goes everywhere in search of lovers--
- --in search, really, of you and me.
- For each of us, at some time, has been involved with matters of the heart.
- Our truck goes to beaches, supermarkets, department stores--wherever there are people.
- We park outside, hide our camera, and observe our fellow creatures struggling to do their best in romantic situations.
- Love has been with us since the dawn of creation--
- --But still, we've never really learned how to handle it.
- "The Amateur's Guide to Love" is here to help!
Game Format[]
The show somewhat resembled Candid Camera, a show involving guest celebrities and unsuspecting civilians. These people were involved in a comedy situation, taped on location in Southern California using a hidden camera. The subjects in the particular situation were faced with two choices, one of which they needed to choose, that were somehow related to sex, marriage, or love. A celebrity panel voted upon which choice would have been the smartest, and the civilian who picked that particular decision won merchandise prizes.
