I'm gonna split hairs and say Bob is correct when he says he hosted Card Sharks five years. The show started airing on 1/6/86 and went off in March of 89. They may have started taping or rehearsing during the last weeks of 1985. So 85 would be one year, 86-2, 87-3, 88-4 and 89-5. So, I conclude Bob hosted Card Sharks in five different years in Studio 33.

I've noticed that too - and it's not the first time Bob has said that. Despite the fact it may have been in five different calendar years, it was still a three-year-and-a-bit run, nowhere near five (unless there was a syndie version or something we didn't know about...)

The first week or two of Eubanks CS shows were copyrighted 1985.

Yup. TV years are just different than calendar years. Kind of like how TV days are different than calendar days =)

And while that's a valid conclusion to the argument you are making, Bob's still flat wrong. Here, we'll spot you that rehearsals started, say, November of 1985:
November '85 to November '86: 1 year
November '86 to November '87: 1 year
November '87 to November '88: 1 year
November '85 to March '89: 5 months. Tops.
That's not five years. That's three and a half. At the most. Prolly closer to three and a third.
