* The CBS daytime version of ''[[The Price Is Right]]'' has one of the [[Ur Example|earliest examples]] and easily the [[Trope Maker|most recognizable]], used after double overbids in the Showcase end game and many pricing game losses. These were also used on several other Goodson/Todman game shows. Heard on ''[[Double Dare 1976|Double Dare]]'' and the original version of ''[[Card Sharks]]'' in truncated form, and the 1980s versions of ''Card Sharks'' in full. Consists of the first four notes of TPIR's main theme, followed by a trombone "groan". Listen to it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ytCEuuW2_A here.]
** Thanks to [[Memetic Mutation]], this horn has come to indicate an [[Epic Fail]] at damn near anything.

* The [[Zonk]]s on ''[[Let's Make a Deal]]'', beginning with the 1976 Las Vegas season and, while with a different effect, continuing throughout the current version with Wayne Brady. Subverted in the 1990 version as a [[Stock Sound Effects|stock foghorn]] was usually heard instead.
* Losing the "nine keys" version of the [[Bonus Round]] on the Bergeron version of ''[[The Hollywood Squares]]''.
