If you’re missing any of the old TV shows, check out this list to see if any of them have been converted into TV-themed slots. When the best of reality, animated and sitcom TV shows meet online slots, you can be sure that the result is sheer entertainment.

Family Guy

The dysfunctional Griffin family is rendered in IGT’s superior graphics in what has already become a very popular TV-themed slot machine. Although it has a low RTP of 92.5%, there are six kinds of progressive jackpots and frequent payouts. 

Your favorite characters, Peter, his wife Lois and weird kid Stewie, not to mention the giant chicken, are all here and feature in the various bonus rounds. When the Peter symbol appears, players win bonuses in payouts or multipliers. When Peter shows up as a wild symbol, he does what he does worst: woo his wife to win credit points. Luckily the game is kinder than Lois when it comes to Peter’s successes at romance. As for the destructive Stewie, he’s on a mission to destroy the world. Anyone who’s missing this TV show will love the slots version.

Narcos

The massively successful crime drama series based on the story of Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar is brought to life in this slot by NetEnt. With realistically drawn pictures of the main characters from the show, dusty Colombian streets and backdrops that change into gun battles and drive-by shootings, the graphics draw players right into the set. Symbols to look out for include the police badge, which acts as a wild and the special mugshot of the master criminal himself, which, if it lands in three places, activates a bonus game. With 243 ways to win, a medium to high volatility and 96.23% RTP, this explosive game will have you on the edge of your seat. 

Peaky Blinders

Who better to be represented in an online gambling game than the master racketeers themselves — the Shelby family, led by Tommy. This is a high-volatility, five-reel game with 20 paylines, a top win of 5000x your wager and an above-average RTP of 96.5%. It scores high on graphics, including the backdrop of the industrial streets where the show is set. The soundtrack echoes the Irish vibe of the family.

There’s lots to play for with wilds, free spins and respins but no progressive jackpot. Features include the Shelby Betting Shop and By Order of the Peaky Blinders free spins. This is another great game brought to you by Pragmatic Play.

Baywatch

From the show that brought us Pamela Anderson in a red bathing suit and made a hero out of the Hoff, be prepared to be saved from scoring a zero win by this courageous team of surf lifesavers in IGT’s Baywatch slots game. With a sun-kissed beach setting, this 5-reel format, 15-payline, 96.25% RTP game is safer than the waters off Malibu.

With features including Tidal Wave and TeamWork (it’s all about teamwork, Mitch,) this slot is pure escapist fun. But if running down a beach in slow-mo isn’t your fantasy, there are plenty of other online slots out there that will save you from drowning.

Wheel of Fortune

Like the TV show of the same name, this game relies on some skill and a certain amount of luck. This slot harks back to the classic fruit-machine look, with the bottom half designed to resemble an arcade game, with big reels and fruit symbols, and a top half that features a big wheel activated by special symbols.

The two separate games have the same three reels in play with 27 paylines. You can play just the basic game or mix the two. Of course, the Wheel of Fortune itself is the symbol you want to land since it unlocks a special bonus game with the chance to win 100x your wager. This is yet another online casino slot in the classic style brought to you by IGT.

The $100,000 Pyramid

This game show slot machine has a retro feel, which makes sense for a game based on a show launched in 1973. The entire Pyramid series was wildly successful, winning nine daytime Emmys — second only to Jeopardy. This IGT game has high volatility and a 95% RTP, but a maximum payout of 100 000x your wager. Graphics feature all the symbols you see on the show. You’ll spot the $100,000 Pyramid Logo (the wild), Winner’s Circle (the scatter), Contestants, Celebrity Stars and more. Three or more Celebrity Circle symbols activate the bonus feature, which naturally is a pyramid you have to scale to reach more free spins and multipliers.

Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen

A celebrity chef that needs no introduction, we wonder what Gordon Ramsay makes of this video slot version of his notorious TV series. Whatever it is, we’re pretty sure it’s unrepeatable! Although the game itself is low-volatility, that description doesn’t apply to Ramsay — so expect lots of flying utensils, which, if well aimed, transform into wilds. 

As is to be expected from any game produced by NetEnt, the graphics earn a Michelin star. Ramsay’s signature dishes make up the symbols, from Beef Wellington with a payout of 200x to lower reward burgers and brownies. The Hell’s Kitchen logo is the wild. There’s a team challenge feature in which the player must choose sides, but regardless of whether red or blue wins, there’s still a reward. If you pick the winning team, you can go on to play Ramsay’s bonus game.

The graphics in this game are mouthwatering, and the rewards will satisfy any slot fan’s appetite. This is definitely a favorite among TV-themed jackpot slots

Deal or No Deal

This Gamesys slot completely recreates the tension and excitement of this popular game and features briefcases and models. Even the music and sounds are authentically Deal or No Deal. This is a three-reel game with a twist: when it comes to the bonus game and you have the opportunity to play Deal or No Deal, the reels are eliminated and you’re left to simply pay to spin the wheel. 

The main objective is to land one of the game’s iconic briefcases, with the fixed amount being determined by the amount staked on the spin. This is among the most flexible of slots and as much fun as watching Howie Mandel.

The Price Is Right

With its iconic catchphrase, “Come on down!” The Price Is Right has been named the greatest game show of all time — and rightly so. IGT, which has made a specialty out of converting TV shows into winning online slots, is behind the graphics — so it’s no surprise that this game is so much fun. With a 96.2% RTP and a maximum payout of 1000x, there’s an exciting Cliff Hanger bonus round to be discovered. Apart from the models, this game has pretty much all the excitement of the TV show. 

Beavis and Butt-Head

These two inherently unappealing good-for-nothing teenagers defied all odds to become the heroes of a popular cult adult animation series. But their lack of intelligence isn’t reflected in this BluePrint-developed slots game. The graphics cleverly incorporate the reels into the TV screen that Beavis and Butt-Head sit on their couch staring at. Occasionally, one of them will change the reels with a fly swat, fishing rod or even the TV remote. In the history of slots, this game has pretty much more bonuses than any other, all with crazy names such as Cornholio Wilds, Colossal Couch Fishing and Die, Fly, Die. The game has 8-reel modifiers and six bonus rounds, with a top prize payout of up to 10,000x your triggering stake and a 95.49% RTP.
