Spinoffs
A spinoff, Video Village Junior (sometimes also called Kideo Village) aired on Saturday mornings from September 30, 1961 to June 16, 1962; It was essentially the same game, except with children participating as the contestants (and a parent serving as their "significant other"). Its last episode aired the day after Video Village concluded its run.
Two years following Village's cancellation, a new Saturday morning kids' show, Shenanigans, premiered with game play similar to that of Village. It aired on ABC in 1964 and 1965, and was also a Heatter-Quigley production. The host was Stubby Kaye and the announcer was Kenny Williams (appearing as "Kenny the Cop"), who had also been the announcer on Village. Like "Village", a board game based on the show was manufactured by Milton-Bradley.
