Title: Pyramid on ABC tonight!
Post by: familyfeudfan on February 10, 2004, 08:58:37 PM

Pyramid was mentioned on ABC's I'm With Her tonight as the $100,000 Pyramid even though when they went to a shot of Brooke Shields on the set it was the current version. Let's hope that all of this primetime exposure helps pyramids ratings

 Even if Friends and I'm With Her's Pyramid-based scenes do increase Pyramid's ratings, the show is still not coming back for season three.

This thread has got me thinking:

Since both I'm With Her and Robert Bianco's Critic's Corner in USA Today on the day of the Friends episode both called the show The $100,000 Pyramid, would it be feasible for Sony to relaunch the show in the 2005-06 season under the title The $100,000 Pyramid?  After all, in the public consciousness, the Pyramid has always had a five-to-six-figure dollar amount attached to it.

Would it be feasible? Absolutely.

But I'm not entirely sure that you meant to use that particular word.

How so?  Just curious.

 Semantics for $10, Art.

"Feasible" simply means "capable of being done".  Sony is certainly capable of launching a new version of Pyramid any time they want, simply by virtue of holding the rights to it.  But is it practical?  Likely?  Wise?  Prudent?  Probably not.

It's feasible that I'll replace Bob Barker on TPIR.  It's not feasible that Bill Cullen will.
