For the record, Robert Earle's comments about Eileen being a returning champion are true -- the production slate (not shown in this upload) lists the episode as "VTR #2". I doubt they'd do that without a "VTR #1".
Some shows will say they have a returning champion, even though its not true, on the NBC Card Shark Pilot they had a "Returning Champion" which really was a person who appeared on the pilot for the first time, they shows different people playing the game.
True that. Goodson-Todman and Bob Stewart, the last two holdouts, would be out of the Big Apple totally in six years, and it would be another 19 years before a broadcast-network game show was produced in New York again.
I really enjoyed seeing this pilot, and Bobby Earle wasn't that bad as a host. Although I do think Geoff Edwards would've been a better host for this type of show. :-)
