I sometimes dream about taking an announcer's position on a show like this. If I was sited, I'd take over for that guy on TPiR or this one if it was still existing. Jay Stewart, in my opinion, is my favorite announcer.
On one hand, you've got to wonder how Kevin got passed the contestant coordinator(s). On the other hand, Jim handled that situation extremely well. (Can you imagine Kevin on Rossi Morreale's "Temptation"? Oy!)
This must be from Monday 7/7/86 given he mentions the 4th of July weekend(network daytime game shows outside of Super Password and PYL were preempted for Statue of Liberty 100th birthday coverage on 7/4/86)
Got to be from from late June or July, given the expiration date of the Sweepstakes is July 31st. Also, NBC mentions Summer fun in its game show promo during the credits. I remember Jim Perry plugging the home game that SUmmer, and commercials for the $otC home game aired on TPIR and PYL.
The ultimate game show irony: a chance to win a trip back home!

This was also right around the time when NBC redesigned it's Peacock logo.
