GO ended on October 7, 1983, after its brief run on NBC. The show was a game show that aired in 1983 and was a spin-off of the game show Chain Reaction, created by Bob Stewart. It featured a new bonus round where one team member was surrounded by the others, and contestants had to answer questions to eliminate team members until only one remained. The show was hosted by Kevin O'Connell, with Johnny Gilbert serving as the announcer. Its short-lived run and unique format made it a memorable part of early 1980s television.
