Title: When Did This Air?
Post by: gamed121683 on April 17, 2009, 11:14:12 PM

To those who are taping and archiving The $25,000 Pyramid reruns presently airing on GSN, you might be able to help with out with the following. I'm trying to figure out the exact date this one episode aired. All I know is that the guests are Patty Duke & Nipsey Russell, it aired b/w Sept. 9th-Sept 13, 1985 (Thanks, xanfan.com) and the quatrain Nipsey gives at the start of show went like this:

"Pyramid is the best show on TV,
Dick Clark is surely the best MC
They won the Emmy, they pay a high fee
How about a few bucks for the audience and me?"

I hope someone out there can help me figure out what date this show aired. Also, is it just me or did they skip an episode or two from this Duke/Russell week?

Thanks!

Yep, they only skipped two installments of that Patty/Nipsey week.

I thought Nipsey should have ended his poem this way: How about 25 grand each for Patty and me?

Cordially,
Tammy

P.S. Don't some of you think that a few of Nipsey's poems sound as timely today as when he first said them? Especially the ones having to do with the ecomony.....
