''Studs'' is an American television game show that was produced by Fox Television Studios for local television stations. The series premiered on March 11, 1991, as a midseason series, did well enough in its run to be renewed for a full season, and aired for two more full seasons until September 3, 1993. The show was hosted by former game show contestant and comedian Mark DeCarlo, in one of his first TV hosting jobs. The show follows a format similar to those of ''The Dating Game'' and ''Love Connection'', although it provoked some controversy because the questions used relied more heavily on sexual innuendo and double entendre.

All five then appear on the show together, where the men answer questions about their dates and about the women in a succession of rounds. Correct guesses score them "stuffed hearts", and whoever has the most hearts at the end of the game is crowned "Ultimate Stud". In the f ...

Chances (TV Series)
''Chances'' is an Australian prime time soap opera which aired from 29 January 1991 to 30 December 1992 on Nine Network. The show was initially pitched by production company Beyond International, as a straightforward drama revolving around a middle-class family whose lives are transformed when they win $3 million in the lottery. However, the network requested raunchier, more erotic storylines in the vein of ''Number 96'' and '' The Box'', with contractually-obligated nudity and sex scenes. Later episodes diverged considerably from the show's original premise, with increasingly bizarre plots involving man-eating plants, devil worshippers and neo-Nazi cults.Albert Moran, ''Moran's Guide to Australian TV Series'', AFTRS 1993 p 111 The show has developed a cult following.
