Gridlock (TV show)

Gridlock (TV show)

Gridlock was the name of a 1990s television game show in Ireland. It was hosted by Derek Mooney. Gridlock replaced the long running series Blackboard Jungle which was hosted by Ray D'Arcy.

The show lasted only one season. It comprised of two teams of two people, each team representing a secondary school. One player on each team would answer general knowledge answers, while the other would try to achieve "gridlock" on a puzzle diagram.

Due to the extremely complex nature of the puzzle, viewers, the studio audience, and sometimes even contestants, struggled to follow the show. As a result of this, ratings dwindled and Gridlock was cancelled after just one series.
