The Amateur's Guide to Love is an American television game show, created by Merrill Heatter and Bob Quigley, that ran on CBS from March 27 to June 30, 1972.
The Amateur's Guide to Love is here to help.Afterwards, the show would then cut to the studio, where announcer Kenny Williams would introduce this week's panelists ("our guidebook advisors"), and Rayburn.
This early version of the series was hosted by actor Joe Flynn instead of Rayburn, and featured a four-celebrity panel (Rose Marie, Dick Martin, Michael Landon and Peter Marshall) instead of three.
However, the show failed to make an impact against Somerset on NBC and daytime rebroadcasts of the popular Love, American Style on ABC.
Later that year, CBS returned with game shows in its daytime lineup on September 4 with The New Price Is Right, Gambit, and The Joker's Wild.
