I loved watching this show in the 70’s as a yoot. I remember when Tom Kennedy and Elaine Joyce were guests on Password Plus for a week. Seemed like a genuine good guy. Thanks for airing!
Tom Kennedy also later hosted Password Plus.
"What is a yoot?"
(Couldn't resist.)
@@DLCOrganization excuse me your honor, when I was a yoooth- lol
@@jaredjlinden Not to mention Whew! .
RIP Tom Kennedy, John Harlan and Ralph Edwards
When did John Harlan pass away?
Thank you for th the memories!
Monica Burress was a backup singer for Barry Manilow in the 1970's.
Casey's "This is NBC" led into a episode of "Here's Boomer", which was followed by that fledging hit, "The Facts of Life."
"Here's Boomer" did not last long. And it looked like "The Facts of Life" might follow suit. But a rearranging of the cast, trimming it down to four main girls, and one of them a new one as a street-wise lady named "Jo" turned the series around.
@@cdelano81 Yeah but, as I recall, they got rid of the best looking girls. I was 14 years old at the time. When they trimmed the cast, they didn't give us quantity or quality.
Do you had one from them airing the syndicated Price Is Right as that was one of the shows aired during the week along with Name That Tune and syndicated Family Feud and $1.98 Beauty Show
$4.99 for sizzler steak and lobster! 😞
sign me up!
Wish we could go back to that
I never get this line of thinking...
Cost of living differences between 1980 and 2020s makes $5 then $18.50 now... you can get a center cut sirloin at logans roadhouse down the street from me for 18.39, that's about the quality of steak a sizzler was.
So ... what are you "harkening back for?"... yes it was a $5 steak then, but the median us income was $17k in 1980... it was $75k in 2023.
@@davidcarlson6981 In my gentrificatied town $18.50 gets you a ceasar salad.
Today a house is $1M. 20 years ago that same house was $20.000. 20 years ago middle class job made about $75k to $100k today middle class job makes about the same. I was able to buy a house 20 years ago. There’s no fricken way I could today. At least here in California.
Whoa! Sandy Foley won a car and $3,500, but yet, she didn't win the show, still, it's nothing to cry over.
Ralph Edwards must have been a multi millionaire so that he can afford to gave away all that loot than Sandy Frank later on.
@@meyerj75 This is Your Life and Truth or Consequences may have made him that way.
Hi,@jnadle1, I hope you enjoyed the show. The studio audience thought I had been first to have a chance naming the tie-breaker tune, "Come Saturday Morning" I knew this tune immediately as it was a long-time favorite. Anyway, the entire experience was still a dream come true and everyone was wonderful. Kindest Regards, Sandy Foley
The NYC airing venue for this would've been WABC Channel 7.
someone named OK sounds odd
I like the cubbie cuddlers shoes commercial. 3 ladies show their shoes.

I don't really remember the Tom Kennedy era. on Name That Tune. Very very little of it remember Kathy Lee on it that's it. But I do remember, the Jim Lange one.
the guy doing the singing sounds tone deaf
Fuzzy: In the description: It's $100,000 - not $1,000,000!
Corrected thanks
I know Ralph Edwards is rich, but I don't think he's THAT rich. Besides, I don't think the country was ready for a game show with a $1M prize. Not until 1986, that is, when Jim Lange (who hosted the NTT remake in 1984) hosted the $1M Chance of a Lifetime.
I've never seen this version. I think I liked it better when it was instrumental.
Um, was a polar bear touching himself?
To see if anyone else wondered that is exactly why I opened the comments. lol
Might've just had an itch, though, I guess. 😆
Seems like they gave away far too much cash and prizes on Tom Kennedy's version than the 1984 reboot with Jim Lange, who was still hosting The Dating Game when this aired.
That's because the Kennedy version only aired once a week. Many syndicated prime time game shows were weekly a la $25k pyramid (Cullen), New Treasure Hunt and several others, and could afford to give away more. Lange's version aired five days a week and could NOT be able to give them away as freely.
