The Big Board / Re: "Woman of the Hour" movie to air October 18 on Netflix

Maybe Jim Lange's estate is overly protective of his image and/or didn't approve of the subject matter?

A follow-up, involving a "special screening," of the PYL true-story film, to occur on October 26!

The Wikipedia entry for the movie is now listing "Tony Hale as Ed Burke (based on Jim Lange)."

It doesn't make sense at all, to me!  This isn't Dragnet!

Cash Can being the seedy cousin of Cash Cab - where users of the secret stall can earn dough while pinching a loaf.

Actually, it's what Ben Bailey keeps the money in.  :P

Are there any rare or previously unseen photos of game show sets or behind-the-scenes you'd like to see? I'd be interested in seeing the back of the Concentration board and, if it exists, The $10,000 Pyramid before the bottom four boxes were covered up.

One of the few memories I have of watching Bob Clayton's Concentration as a snot-nosed kid was that one time Bob and a camera went behind the board for a look-see.  I don't remember what the occasion was for or why they did it, or for how long they spent behind the board, but I will say with 90% certainty they did some sort of "peek" behind the board at least once.

I hope that episode exists somewhere out there

I saw Card Sharks at 9 pm then Chase: USA edition: ABC edition at 10 p. Tivo had the update, Comcast did not.

Mr. Holland: You should pitch Cash Can at NATPE. It could scarcely be worse than some of what is already extant.

Has there ever been a photo released of what the board looked like from the contestant's POV during the Scrabble Sprint round?

Sometimes as the big cube is spinning in the commercial intro/outro you can see the Sprint side come into place. Looks like the line of letters is on the top and the two shuffle letters right below it; makes sense since the contestants are always looking in generally the same place as they call out the letters to place. Don't know where the clock display is, if it's even on this board at all.
