Thank you for this.  Wow, 25 years already?!?!  I have fond memories of the Narz syndie version too, and at best very very vague memories of the original on NBC.  I think I was only 6 when it went off the air back in 1973, when it was still in New York.

I definitely miss this show and am amazed that it's not been tried again.  Seems it went off around 1991, with reruns being aired til around '94 or so.  Regular network daytime game shows are a dying breed, just as soap operas are.  You can watch "Let's Make A Deal" from 10-11am est, "The Price is Right" from 11 til noon, and "Millionaire" at 12:30, which provides 2.5 hours of game show entertainment during the day.

And one of those isn't a network game show.

Ah yes, Millionaire is syndie, and not just seen on ABC stations.  My bad!
