Jim occasionally mentioned TV stations that had joined the NBC network. This time he mentioned me and my hometown NBC affiliate KPRC

  • Hey, Mitt. Do you have a clean copy of the 1988 theme song on mp3?

  • sorry, I do not.

  • Wait a second...I thought that $ale was ALWAYS aired on KPRC, without any preemptions (I live in Houston also, and I remember watching it when I was between 2 and 3 years old).

    When did it first get preempted on KPRC, and how long did that last Mitt?

  • I thought the same thing when I dug up this tape. I wish I could remember the circumstances, because I too recall it was already on Ch2. When I worked for KPRC in 1983 and 84, they were privately owned. I can only guess that might have been when Post Newsweek bought them and they renewed their agreement with NBC, but I don't know.

  • Well, it's a shame your family couldn't see you in Houston until the final season.

    BTW, are there any plans for an SOTC or Scrabble DVD set?

  • I don't know for sure what the plans are for Sale and Scrabble, but in my opinion, Fremantle would better serve the shows to make a deal to have the shows streamed over the net than selling them as a DVD set...streaming is the future.

  • The sound quality of this tape is superb. I love the revamped cues of this show and also I noticed, this is one of the rowdiest $otC crowds ever!

  • Hmm...a question I have: That stoppage of the clock was AWFULLY close to the double 0 showing on the clock. I personally think that the judges should've at least let him try to answer and then check the tapes if he answered correctly at that point. Probably wouldn't have made a difference, and I might not be correct that it wasn't that clear that his stop came after the 00, but do you know why they didn't even make sure? I would've let him try and then review the time if I was the judge.

  • Wasn't Vicki on $100,000 Pyramid in 1986?

  • one more thing, Mitt, the speedround is what I remember about watching SOTC!

  • It's pretty cool that they mentioned u and ur tv station, Mitt! SOTC in my area was on WHO-TV Channel 13 in Des Moines, IA, and it came on at 9 am after the Today show, because I remember my mom taping it for me while I was at school. I was living in the Madrid, IA area at the time, now I live in Perry, IA. Thanx 4 the upload!

  • 8:22-8:37 - Long Live Vincent Price RIP

  • Mitt, that would probably be the wise thing for Fremantle to do at this point, not only for the U.S. Reg Grundy games, but for those outside the U.S. as well.

  • Yes. Rani White won the $50,000 - and did so with one second left.

  • I read up on the net somewhere that only one person did achieve that goal, but it seems as if no one has the clip. a rare find. there's a clip somewhere on youtube that someone attempted for the $50k but failed.
