For me, the biggest attention-getters are Double Dare and the Cullen Truth.

Did Bill Cullen do a whole show? I remember one where he and Garry Moore traded seats because they knew going in that Bill would have had to disqualify himself.

Some time ago when GSN aired TTTT on a regular weekday basis, they aired Bill's entire 4 week fill-in as host. Definitely a nice treat.

Just transferred NYSI episodes two and three over from a tape to DVD in the transfer of my collection...pretty neat little show that could use a weekend run I would think!

The marathon schedule looks intresting especially when 4 Alex Trebek-hosterd DD episodes are aired March 3.  I'll bet it'll start with the premiere & wrap it up with its finale.  The other 2 episodes should hopefully bring back my childhood memories.

I'll eventually get a new VCR soon to go with my new 26" LCD TV so that I can tape that Now You See It episode on Jan 21

Shatner was shown prominently during this fun episode (still kills me to get used to Gene on-camera as host)
and as for when this episode was, Gene had hosted the show between 1972-1974, don't have the exact date but in that year range is when the episode was. Had to be in a healthy part of that period with the long hair and mutton chops and all.

Yes, I noticed too. It reminds me of an ep of FF where Richard signed off insisting that there was no nepotism on the show, and then every staffer's name was either Dawson or something-hyphenated-Dawson.

I originally watched the show via CKLW-TV in Windsor, so it's nice to see that GSN leaves in the "made-for-Canada" audience segment. At least I think that was just for Canada.

Can't speak for the Gene Wood years, but we often saw the beginning of it in the Jack Narz years.

Which leads me to assume that GSN's using the American cuts, only because the fade to black is always abrupt.  When they originally aired in Canada, was there a third break or did they go right from the audience game to the wrapup?  If there wasn't a break, then I'm sure that these are the American cuts, since I suspect the GSN intern only logged break time code on the G-T shows if it was a fade to black, a hard commercial lead-in or a fee or ticket/contestant plug.

And that whole "boss" thing had to be an inside joke between Wood and Phil Rossi.  (By this point, Phil's dad had gone west to supervise a little thing called "The Price is Right"--what became of that show?)

Having finally seen it last night, I'm leaning closer to '72 with those hairstyles and such.  I'm sure Shatner wishes this ep had been burned.

This is the first time I've ever been able to get a Gene Wood Beat the Clock recorded and I'm very happy about it.  When I was a kid this was actually my first exposure to both BtB and Wood, and I remember watching this on WTCG, Channel 17, the Atlanta indy station that evolved into TBS.  I believe WBMG, Channel 42, the Birmingham CBS affiliate also carried this version.

Post by: mbc793 on January 11, 2007, 02:02:20 AM
Well I got a few Collyer episodes of Beat The Clock and the Gene Wood version of it was icing on the cake. I would guess 1972 as well, though I thought it was earlier with the hairstyle.

Here's a novel idea for GSN: The Network for Games.
Simucast Super Bowl XLI with CBS.  Instead of commercial breaks, infuse game shows during the breaks.  A Combs "Feud" here, a Narz "NYSI" there, heck, throw in some B&W goodies.
They are The Network for Games, it'd fit perfectly in the system.

Great opening in-joke: when the name Now You See It appears on the board, the puzzle is filled with other words referring to Goodson-Todman shows: "Truth," "Line," "Password," "Tattle," "Price" and "Match."

What a great treat, another trip back in time for me.

The jackpot on this episode was $16,000, so I wonder if this one aired a few days before the lady on Jamie's site...she won $19,000 I believe.

Oh, and surprisingly GSN squished the credits for this AND WML? Usually they at least leave the B&W shows alone.

I listed them that way because on the $11,000 episode, a GSN graphic said "aired Oct 1974"; and on the $12,000 episode it said "aired Nov 1974".  So I put 2 & 2 together....although we all know those graphics weren't always 100% accurate.  Still, I always like to know exactly when these shows originally aired if possible!
