I see from the ep. guide on Supershow 8000 that the week of "Airwolf" celebrities was in late Dec. 1985. Was the set decorated for Xmas? It's been so long since Clark Pyramid was regularly run, I can't remember. Anyhow, they are up to the Anita Gilette/Dick Cavett week with 4 shows only.

The set was indeed decorated for Christmas, but USA also skipped this week when they reran the series years ago. Maybe a Jean Bruce Scott veto...?

I'll take your post over Beverly's idea, his email was saying that GSN was leasing "blocks" of shows. I doubt that, they've run everything in the current season thus far.

That's Professor Beverly to you, whelp.
As for Jean Bruce Scott, if she truly is responsible for this loss of content, then to blazes with her. Yet another reason to loathe her. I couldn't stand her on Days Of Our Lives, Airwolf, St. Elsewhere and everything else she was in. She can take her unfounded ego and pitch it to the four winds for all I care. And the same with Fern Fitzgerald and every other so-called "star" who thinks they can dictate our game show enjoyment. Shouldn't have done the show in the first place if you were so ashamed.

She really wouldn't have anything to be ashamed of, if she did indeed veto her appearance. She wasn't a terrific player, but she did have three trips to the Winner's Circle. Heck, that's more than Ed Begley Jr. and Henry Polic II had when each of them played the game for the first time.

Who did they each play against their first time, and how many times did they make it to the bonus? The only time I noticed a celeb come up less than stellar was when Soupy went against Shelley Smith on the 100k Pyramid and had 6/7 round after 6/7 round, only getting to the Winner's Circle a handful of times.

Add Betty Thomas, James Sikking, Valerie Bertinelli, Anitra Ford, David Leisure, and Bob Barker to that list.
Ok you lost me here, are you talking about egos in general, or people that played on Pyramid? I sure dont remember Barker appearing on there.

In each of their first two visits to the show, Henry and Ed only won 2 out of their 10 games. Henry played against Patty Duke and Vicki Lawrence his first two times, and Ed played against Betty White and Martha Smith. They both did very well their third times out, though: Henry hit for $10,000 three times, and Ed won $10,000 twice in the receiving chair.

Oh, but the clues and responses could get quite humorous if he did.

"And this is something I did with Dian just the other day..."
"Fondle?"
*DING!*
