10000 pyramid

[@diamonddog13]

Wow, they sure were lenient in that bonus round. She did not get the key words on either of the last two subjects. The game had not yet been perfected.

[@cg0825]

He used his hands a lot and said "Sammy Davis Jr sometimes" which I thought for sure was illegal

[@kelperdude]

Both of you took the words out of my mouth.

[@michaelfalkner1186]

Last one should not have been given. "A button" would also have applied.

Dick Clark RIP. Dick. We miss you at Times Square!

The gameplay of the original run of the series could be incredibly brutal.

[@user-sk1nw4td8k]

The lady who didn't win the big money seemed very nervous and anxious, unlucky...

[@richmiller8615]

Love seeing the legendary Ed Asner on here! Who would've thought that decades later he would still be working? He has been assuming the role of "Sid", Johnny's nasty stepfather on Cobra Kai.

[@AuroraMeansDawn27]

I love it when the stars are SO EXCITED LOL

[@justin271995]

This version was too lenient.

[@c-c-c-c]

I guess so

Judge made up for it years late

And they wanted 10 subjects in 60...

[@chapter7thomas]

Yes...the rules were far too lenient whereby arms and hands were used in the Winners Circle. If Ed had used his hands in later versions for THINGS THAT GO UP he would have been buzzed for sure.

[@dimidomo7946]

One of the worst episodes. Both contestants and celebrities were air headed and unsmart. Absolutely slow witted.

[@Tre404]

Absolutely love the show, but this is the worst-played one I've ever seen, by the guest stars and the contestants!

[@Chainsawslots]

Rest in peace Ed Asner

[@Chainsawslots]

These players and celebrities are brutal game players

[@chapter7thomas]

I still find that shocking thatbthe judge accepted Things you Iron for THINGS YOU PRESS.😮😮

Dolores oldest child, a 20 years old in 1973, is now 70 years old in 2023. Amazing thinking about that.

[@caverlystringer2222]

Hysterical. A minute or two in, something funny happens, and Dick Clark, standing on the set with lights and camera and etc all around him, comments "I wish we recordsome of these snaswers and play it back for you"??????WTF was he thinking?

[@ChrisBakerauthor]

I can not believe they gave her the money.

[@christopherangel6690]

RIP Ed Asner

[@damienchance2622]

Wow Gene looks a little bit like Paul Lynde

[@garrygriffy1866]

thats what i was thinking and Dolores looks like Brett Sommers

[@williambone7724]

Dick, Michael Strahan does you justice with the new $100,000 Pyramid!

[@Danmark30]

She never said the word PRESS, yet they gave it to her. This must be a very early incarnation!

[@thomasmagnum3588]

She never said “dressing” only “salad”, and she never said “legal” either!

[@chapter7thomas]

This game was within it's first year. And so for some reason they were allowed to use their hands. This woukd never be allowed in later versions of this game. Righly so.

[@nancyericson4263]

this show used to seem to move along so fast but now, the guy takes forever just to pick a category. That would never work now.

Never seen 11 points win as the preliminary game score after 3 rounds

[@ChrisBakerauthor]

There is an episode of $50,000 Pyramid with a game score of 10.

[@chapter7thomas]

....plus back then...the giver was allowed to use their hands ✋️ 🙌 to describe the subjects...

“Stay tuned for Gambit next over most of these CBS stations.”

[@thomasmagnum3588]

63 years old, grew up with Dick Clark and wow, I love this show ! BUT this episode was one of the worst I’ve ever seen! Not only were the players quite slow and dense, but the producers must have really wanted to give away $10,000 that day! I have never seen more lenient judging. Maybe in the early days of the show, they needed more winners to build water cooler buzz and ratings, I guess.

[@alisha82]

Do you have any episodes from late 1976?

The rules were much looser during this incarnation of The Pyramid. What a shame that most of the 70's run was wiped.

Notice that Dick does not mention that you can't use your hands to demonstrate the category.
