What share was Letterman getting when he was cancelled? I still have all that ratings data but would have to turn my apartment upside down to find it.

The first three weeks are here: https://www.gameshowforum.org/index.php/topic,35131.msg407714.html#msg407714. Another thread here had him at 2.8 in early August.

I can’t imagine the ratings the last few weeks were any better; by that point most of the people who would have been his biggest fans (high school/college students?) were back in school.

The Big Board / Re: Treasure Hunt question

This happened on a recently posted episode. I'm guessing they have the audience leave while the second check is placed. I wonder what they sacrifice to hide the second check, maybe a klunk, or a prize that's not part of the announced prizes offered on the show. Geoff told me for the 1980s run, that some boxes were duplicates, since there were 66 on that version. I wonder if they had duplicates also for this version.
no need to have them leave—pull a curtain or flat around that part of the stage and go to work. Also you would replace the check with the check and shuffle around whatever needs to happen.

My guess was always that there was a brief stopdown during which the packages were removed from the set, a new $25k check placed, and the packages brought back out.

Although a curtain makes more sense.

I would think they have a curtain they could use to hide the boxes from the audience while the second check is placed. Geoff said there has to be a top prize every time they play the game.

Sorry if this as been covered earlier, but if someone finds the $25,000 in the first game, is another check hidden for the second game?

Yep.

Yes it is.
