Password, the Goodson-Todman-created war of the words, wrapped up a sensational 6-year, 1,555-episode run on CBS Daytime. Celebrities on the final edition were Betty White Ludden & Frank Gifford and the game contained a "Stars vs. Civilians" final game between Ed vs. Meryl and the celebs.
Allen Ludden, ever the cool and collected emcee, thanked the nation for its support over the six years of Password; his final words on the series finale were: "I'll see you soon, I hope!" As soon as four years, actually; in 1971, ABC would add a new version of Password to its daytime schedule. [/quote]
Not to burst your bubble, Aaron, but Allen did see viewers(however few it may have been) on WIn With the Stars c. 1969, two years before ABC's Password revival.
