Pyramid "sneak peek" on GSN

[clemon79]

Wasn't it always Dick saying "I see Charlie has the screen, do you want to keep it that way?" or a similar ad-lib.

Yes, which is why I was specifically commenting on the give/receive decision in the Winner's Circle and not the who-gives-in-round-three one.

[JMFabiano]

Ditto for the WC.

Mike commented on it the second WC, I believe. And it wasn't like it was ever asked specifically on the Clark show either.

Seriously, folks, you guys are reaching.

He did but didn't formally ask which way the team wanted to play it.  

I remember $10K episodes where Dick asks the team that won about "the $10,000 decision" (about giving/receiving) before they walked to the WC.  Maybe some Cullen $25K's too.  These moments became scarcer by the time they got up to $20K.  

I said it was a nitpick, it didn't hurt the entertainment value of the show for me.

But even with the latter, Dick would come to ask "Do you want to give or receive?" all the time.

You have a really interesting definition of "all the time".

OK, most of the time.

[clemon79]

OK, most of the time.

You are talking about a "custom" that by your own admission was quickly going the way of the dodo by the mid-late 1970s.

Try again.

No, I meant the question re: WC became extinct.  It remained prevalent in the main game.

[clemon79]

No, I meant the question re: WC became extinct.

...which is what I've been speaking to this entire time.

Sorry, got a bit mixed up, obviously...

I was away and forgot to tape the first "official" episode Monday night, But GSN will probably repeat it often enough. They always do.

I made the same mistake (forgot about the time zone issues), and according to Tivo's listings it looks like they are running two hours on Friday at 5:00P (PDT, dammit) that I would bet a nickel are repeats of Monday-Thursday, especially since the guests are still Yvette Nicole Brown and Danny Pudi. (And this looks like a regular thing at least for a little while, as the same thing is happening the following Friday.)

I thought I noticed straps in the preview clip Chad uploaded, but then again I also watched on my phone.

Just for the record, on the Tuesday 9/4 show, we have definitive proof of the existence of straps.

[BillCullen1]

Saw the Tuesday 9/5 show. In the first WC round, I wonder if for "Things that are tender" they could've gotten with "Elvis Presley's Love" as a clue.

[Marc412]

Maybe, but I thought of "loving care".  (BUZZ!)  Tender and loving are synonyms, it turns out.
