I got a question for you Don, out of all the weeks with the celebrity guests listed, what week of episodes did GSN stop at before they added "Family Feud '94",  the Bob Stewart packet shows and the children's game show block(aka acquiring QKC, Joker, Joker, Joker, Jep!, and Wheel 2000) to their lineup?

I don't know. I didn't have access to the channel at the time.

While I don't know the exact airdate or contestants/celebrities involved, I can say this much:

*The episode was probably hosted by Monty Hall.
*More than likely Jack Narz announced.  
*More than likely, Whew! was the beneficiary of a colorful pronunciation.
*It's probable that the game's participants raced against time to compete stunts for cash.
*The episode was most likely during the CBS portion of the run.
*The program in question would have been produced during the part of the series produced by Goodson-Todman.

*And I watched Perry CS opposite it when it aired originally.

Which apparently quite a few people did, which seemingly was why BtC didn't last much past the first month of 1980.

*Paul Alter, of TPIR fame both before and after this run of BTC, directed these episodes in studio 31 at CBS Television City.
*Music was by Arthur B. Rubinstein, looking rather Beethovenesque in this photo:

Cool.  I saw 'Ralna Hovis' and then 'Guy Hovis' and I had no idea who those people were.  YOU say 'Guy and Ralna' and I immediately remember!

You start bringing that "Hovis" into the mix, then you start associating them with the King of Channel Islands, CA, Larry Hovis.
