Nice challenge for Google. As it happens, a pretty page answers number fourteen. Sorry, but I'm too lazy to track down other questions that haven't been answered yet...or to knock over the Davidson setup.

Not to push too hard, but any question involving the immortal JD probably won't get too many serious answers on this board.

[This is to the best of my recollection]
Well, the Davidson Squares opened with nothing but an announcement of the stars, and Shadoe saying "They are, the [New] Hollywood Squares! and here's the star of the show, John Davidson!

The 1991 100K Pyramid with John "You were great entertainment!" Davidson, I'm pretty sure, started "Keep your eye on this spot" just like the 1973 one did.

Corrections, comments, flames, roastings, certainly welcome!

With the end game "doot--doot--doot" in the background instead of the cue used in the original opening."

The version I downloaded also has Shadoe saying "and if our two contestants aren't as stupid as they look, then they might be able to play for one of these five crappy automobiles!"

Early on it started with a close-up of the WC, with Johnny G. saying "This is the WC. This is where someone is guaranteed to win $100K. From TV City in Hollywood, this is the $100K Pyramid". Then the celeb guests would be introduced and JD would make his entrance. Later on, the opening spiel changed to "If someone gets to the top of the Pyramid in less than (time needed to beat to get into tourney) seconds, they will return to play for $100K", or words to that effect. The rest remained the same.

How times have changed. Jack Paar was censored for saying WC on The Tonight Show.

And during the tournaments, the 3 finalists would stand behind the WC during the opening, w/Johnny's spiel going "The first one of these players to make it up to the top of the Pyramid in less than 60 secs. will walk away w/$100K in cash".

You don't need to post your question again. No one answered the first time, so either no one knows, or just don't care to answer.
