[quote name=\'saussage\' date=\'Apr 5 2005, 09:06 PM\']Heck. I hope I'm not wrong with this but did Rafferty Card Sharks last appeared in Dec 1999 during the Y2Play marathon?

I don't believe so - the CS that aired during Y2Play was the tearful Eubanks farewell.

P.S. Welcome to the group! Glad to have you!

I have to honestly agree with everybody, Man! Bill Rafferty should have did the daytime version because Eubanks has nothing on him. After seeing the first two syndicated episodes, I am convinced that he should have been the host of the daytime version. It was okay that he had to explain the rules because most new viewers couldn't catch the daytime version in certain areas. If there was a revival I would want Rafferty as my host. He doesn't attack the contestants like Eubanks did and talk bad about him. The daytime version was okay and deserved its 3-year run. But the syndicated version should have gotten a chance to run a bit longer. Don't ya think?

Is it just me or is are there more lights on compared to the CBS version? (Flashing $400 sign on Money Cards, Flashing red & blue on main board, etc...)

Enjoy lots and lots of backstage TPIR photos and other fun stuff here. And yes, I did park in Syd Vinnedge's parking spot at CBS

Since i'm not Zach...:)

The last Rafferty CS (before Monday) actually aired in the early morning hours of 10/10/97, as the "Dark Period" took effect at the stroke of midnight, 10/11/97, and was not over until 8am on 4/18/98 with "Child's Play".

They were always--they just may not have been noticeable.

Also, in the Eubanks "CS" shows that have been running lately, he most likely hasn't been giving the detailed explanation of the Money Cards that would require flashing the "$200" and "$400" signs.  It being the first week of the syndicated version, there is the obvious compulsion to explain things they don't need to explain anymore on the network version (although "Wheel" didn't dig out the old rules cue cards when they started their syndicated run--guess Merv thought the viewers would figure things out soon enough).

Did Lacey and Suzanna always wear the same silly toy soldier costumes throughout the series? Or is it just for the week?   Refresh my memory, did they change outfits on the Eubanks show?

That outfit seemed to be a favorite of theirs for most of the Eubanks/Rafferty CS, but I think there were SOME deviations from that.

Once they started playing for cars in both versions, they ditched the dealer outfits...

Same thing happened as the Perry version got underway...think Jim even referred to the changing outfits on air.

He did.  As I recall, it was based on a letter that was received.

Just when I think you can't do anything worse; you manage to top yourself. Congratulations. Now, Brandon Foster-Gray...what do we have for our winner?
