The kids get a week of great house parties."

        The article notes: "Second Honeymoon, with Wayne Cox as host, is a show where kids of all ages spill the goods on their parents while trying to win them a second honeymoon.

      2. Bentley, Rick. (1987-08-31). "In a 'Wink': Martindale riding wave" (pages 1, 2, and 3). The Town Talk. Archived from the original (pages 1, 2), and 3 on 2022-05-27. Retrieved 2022-05-27.

        The article notes: "Martindale ... has partnered with Jerry Gilden to form a production company responsible for "Second Honeymoon," the first-run game show on the Christian Broadcasting Network. ... Her idea was to have children win second honeymoons for their parents. They win the prize by answering questions based on information about their parents.

      3. "Personal mention". Houston Chronicle. 1987-07-27. Archived from the original on 2022-05-28. Retrieved 2022-05-28.

        The article notes: "The Christian Broadcast Network is all set to unveil its first game show, but it may need to work out a few wrinkles. "Second Honeymoon," hosted by veteran game-show emcee Wink Martindale, gives kids a chance to win a second honeymoon for their parents by coming up with the right answers about their family's lifestyle. The concept is modeled after the often-risque "Newlywed Game" but CBN officials insist that their show is good, clean family viewing with no double-entendre jokes. So let's hear one of the questions on the premiere show: "Kids, what would your dad do if he woke up one morning and discovered that he didn't have any clean underwear?" The multiple-choice answers include: He would put on a dirty pair; he wouldn't wear any underwear at all; or he would put on a pair of mom's underwear."

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Second Honeymoon to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".
