How did I do?  :) [/quote]
 I don't quite know if this is correct.  If by a "roll along slide," you mean six
TV monitors, then yes.  

Also refer to the rest of the thread.

The reruns could have been called "Classic Classic Concentration."  I read that blurb in USA Today as well, apparently the reruns did just as well or better than the show in first run.  Why make new ones when the reruns still hold up?

Putting a symbol on the last item in a category had been done by the Chyron operators going back to the ABC days (when you could see a dot in the corner of the screen on the last item).  It may've not been noticeable from the TV City Chyrons until the second "$100,000 Pyramid."

 The reruns were ment to be a temporary thing but the ratings told a different story. They were stull pulling a 5.7 to 8.3 every day, so they were kept permanent until they were pulling about 1.6 ratings, and by then we were also ready to revamp our daytime sched.
