Broadcast History
Double Dare replaced the game show Gambit on CBS' daytime lineup at 11:00 AM Eastern (10:00 Central). Facing NBC's popular two-year-old Wheel of Fortune, it did not draw the audience Gambit had.
After a move to 10:00 AM Eastern on March 7, 1977, where it went up against Sanford and Son reruns on NBC, CBS canceled Double Dare and replaced it with reruns of Here's Lucy which aired until December 12, 1977, when Tattletales occupied that slot.
