Double Dare - Lost Episodes (1986-1993 Nickelodeon Series)

Game shows with missing episode are hardly an uncommon incident-The Price is Right, Hollywood Square, Wheel of Fortune...You name it, it probably has an episode or two unviewable by the general public. Nickelodeon's most famous game show, Double Dare, is no acception. Hosted by Marc Summers, the classic game show focused primarily on kids, who would have to go through (usually digusting) obsticle courses in order to win prizes of trips and small amounts of money.

While it certainly has fared better than most game shows by having the privalege of years of reruns for fans to record, several episodes are still unable to be seen online.

The Arm Breaking Incident
In addition to the missing episodes above, there was at least one episode of Double Dare that was filmed but never aired. The episode involved a kid that had a condition that made his bones more fragile than the average contestant on the show. Said kid lied about it on the application and made it on to the show.

During filming of the episode, the predictable happened-the kid broke his arm while doing one of the obsticles on the show. Nickelodeon, fearing being sued over the incident (espescially since the kid's father was a lawyer), gave the kid the seventh's obsticle prize as compensation, and the case was settled. The episode has not seen the light of day, likely due to this incident.
