Ten years ago today, on Sunday, May 7, 2000 during the 11:00pm Eastern hour (with a later replay during the early morning hour of 3:00am Eastern on Monday, May 8, 2000), Game Show Network [GSN] presented on its Game of the Week series a fall 1973 episode from the original CBS-TV version of The $10,000 Pyramid. Many game show fans and the channel's regular viewers were probably surprised to see this then rare, "lost" gem of a find that was last seen on its original broadcast back during thr third week of November 1973.
This $10K episode featured celebrity guests Anita Gillette, David Spielberg, Loretta Swit and McLean Stevenson. It should be noted that it was the twelfth of the fifteen produced episodes done from CBS Television City's Studio 31 in Los Angeles, not from its then original home of the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City. That same episode would be shown again, along with seven other shows from the series, in a GSN Game Show Saturday Night marathon airing on Saturday, September 23, 2000.
