Gameplay: Same as the 1978 version, with one difference. Each of the two players plays their own set of numbers, on two different colored monitors (pink for the champion, sky blue for the challenger). In addition, one of the numbers is a "Bonus Prize Number", which if knocked off, earns the player a really good prize, such as a home entertainment center, a shopping spree, a vacation, maybe even a new car. Once again, knocking all nine numbers off wins the game. Two out of three moves on to the Big Numbers.
The Big Numbers bonus round is the exact same bonus round used in 1978 and 1987. This time, if you knock all nine off, you win a jackpot starting at $15,000 and rises up by $1,000 when not won.
Set: Similar to the 1987 set, with lights made to look like numbers (this time in Arial font), but kinda similar to the Aussie WoF's current set (dark purple gradient background and lights on weirdly shaped arches)
Host: Since Alex Trebek is too busy doing Jeopardy!, I could try Wink Martindale again. If not, Ken Ober of "Remote Control" would be decent enough.
Hostess: Someone like Lee Menning, the second hostess of "$ale of the Century". There would also be models to show off the prizes.
Announcer: I could hear John Moschitta going "And now, a game of high stakes, where every decision is a gamble, and every roll can be your last, Hiiiiiiiiiiigh Rollerrrrrrrrs! And here's the man with all the action, Wink Martindale (or "Ken Ober!")
Music: A synth-techno remix of the 1978 theme
Where to put it: NBC daytime would work.
