On This Day: June 23, 1989 - Final Episode of Relatively Speaking Airs
On this day June 23, 1989, the final episode of the game show Relatively Speaking aired after a single season. Hosted by comedian John Byner, the show featured celebrity panelists trying to guess how contestants were related to one another. The format aimed to blend humor and surprise with a family twist, but it failed to stand out in a crowded daytime television lineup.

Though it lasted just one season, Relatively Speaking is remembered as part of a wave of short lived game shows that filled 80s television with quirky concepts and fast paced fun.

80s insight: Relatively Speaking reflected the experimental nature of 80s game shows where networks were willing to take creative chances even if they did not always stick around for long.
