- Most of the problems from part 1 should be fixed here since this time I used my other video editing software, which makes the video appear more "stable".
Anyway, we go onward to game 2, where Shirley has yet to win her $20,000. Can she do it here? Oh, and a certain blooper happens in the Winner's Circle.
DISCLAIMER: Nothing you see here is my property.
I was fortunate to be in the studio audience when this was taped at the ABC studio on West 58th St, so I saw the chair tossing and what followed off air.
Do tell, Brickyard Hill Studios! What happened off air and such?
The audience and production staff were stunned. Shatner apologized to
the contestant ("I'm sooo sorry"). During the break between episodes, an
audience member asked announcer Bob Clayton if the incident would be
edited out, and he said no, it would air as it happened. And I think
Shatner may have have addressed it in the next episode. It was a great
memory.
Dick did bring it up on the next show. Sometimes I wonder if Shatner ever actually won in the Winner's Circle... but one thing's for sure, they really wanted their contestant partner to win, and hated when they were the cause for messing it up.
Probably would have been just another win, and we wouldn't be having these sorts of discussions.
It was Dick who brought it up the next day: czcams.com/video/-UyxR9g7xi4/video.html
The blessed...KHAAAAAAAAAN!!
LOL
8:11 He almost had it!
@millenniumman75 His name is Bob Clayton. He was best known for replacing Hugh Downs as the host of Concentration from 1969 until the end of its run in 1973. Since Concentration ended and Pyramid began the following Monday, he was the announcer of almost all Bob Stewart game shows in New York unti his death in 1979. The only two he didn't announce were Jackpot and Winning Streak which were both announced by Don Pardo.
Finally, after seeing that old video clip of the incident for over 10 years, the entire thing finally emerges
they need to restore this in HD quality...too priceless lol
That reaction in the winners circle is an all time great! Poor Bill Shatner.
I hadn't seen that since I was a kid. When he lost it & threw the chair, so irritated with himself, it was Great then & was just as great today. Awesome Mr. Shatner.
The "bad" Kirk from "The Enemy Within" was revealed with that flub.
Roflmao 😂😅🤣. Poor William Shatner. Rip Dick Clark and Rip Leonard Nimoy. Thanks for posting this.
Earlier that day, contestant, Yolanda Bowserly "gave her ALL," so to speak, to Bob Barker on CBS' "The Price is Right!" A *WILD* day in the world of TV game shows, indeed! ;-)
#Shecameondown #TheycameonOUT
Oh my gosh Shatner made it so entertaining , thanks for posting !
the best goof-up ever in the Winner's Circle :D
haha XD
+JEM Queen He HAD to have felt like shit after that one! IJS!
i bet even after William pulled a stunt back in 1975 when he was playing by himself in the winners circle, that was funny when he did the last 2 subjects when time was already up XD
If Pyramid was from Goodson/Todman, judges would've added TPiR's "Losing Horns" to the final buzzer in the Winner's Circle.
I Saw This Clip From This Episode 10 Years Ago To This Day! WOW!
William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy are the stars of the Original Star Trek series
The Voice Over On The End Credits Is ABC Senior Announcer George Ansbro.
Shatner for president!! Most epic game show moment!
He unfortunately wouldn't qualify for that, as he's from Montreal, Canada. He'd make a great prime minister up here though.
I bet Shatner has the chair base at his house...
Look at Nimoy over there laughing!
Errors/excitment like this keeps the shows going!
The judges/producers write those subjects in a way that they are READY for you to walk into a trap!
🥰
William Shatner said “ I WAS GOING TO SAY THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY!” He was angry at Dick Clark for that blaring alarm.
In the opening game the categories are cardboard pieces of paper.
This was changed to rotating mini pyramids in future versions.
Wow!! The answer to the mike toss - the Chair TOSS!!!
This should have happened on Halloween night on the $20,000 Pyramid
8:12 Capt Kirk loses command of the ship to Khan!
William Shatner said “I WAS GOING TO SAY THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY!” He is mad at Dick Clark for being embarrassed by the alarm.
After “THE BLESSED?” He started to throw a tantrum by throwing the chair out of the corner of the circle to Dick Clark. How can it be that difficult to win the jackpot?🎰
They JUST HAD that exact same category on tonight's $100,000 Pyramid. The contestant gave the clue without blowing it. I got it right away, but her celebrity partner didn't.
William must of been mortified at this on the very last question you could tell how annoyed he was with himself for this.
"But like a poor marksman, you Keep. Missing. The target."
The announcer sounds like a shady salesman LOL.
I knew there was a 70s version of this show, but never heard the theme again until the Internet came around.
Was that a moment that Goldilocks would have loved, or maybe even Bobby Knight--inasfar as the chair toss-and-break (lol) on a TV game show (at 8:40)? Let history speak for itself.
RIP Leonard Nimoy 1931-2015
He also yelled at Dick Clark THE VIRGIN!
Awww SHUCKS. He was so mad at himself.
Someone pay William Shatner $10,000 for that chair throw!
I don't know what Shatner's "crazy" funniest moment was: The winner's circle or his hilarious, neurotic Buck Murdock character in "Airplane 2!". Or his recording of Mr. Tambourine Man in the late 60's.
7:20 A prime example of a good sportsman in action.
Leorand Nimoy was hosting the second season on In Search Of... at the time though Dick Clark would never mention anything about it that week.
He went full Will Smith! Awesome!!
8:10 - and this is how he deserved to be on Rescue 911.
6:30 or so... He could've said, "Bob from *The Price is Right*." I'm sure that would've gotten it.
KHAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!
#epicfail
For acting like that in the winner’s circle throwing out the other chair.
By any small chance do you happen to have the following day's episode?
After that week on "THE $20,000 PYRAMID's" Popular celebrity guest star William Shatner was dropped from his role as a favorite guest when he screamed and threw a chair out of the winners circle in disgust when he lost the bonus round for a contestant (The Returning Winner.)
It's too bad he was not invited back after that week.
And for his trouble, William Alan Shatner was _never invited back._
He actually made a couple of appearances on the nighttime version during its final two seasons, but that was it.
Yeah, I know. Very mopey.
I’ve never seen this in pyramid a chair toss as a foot in the mouth!
Bill Shatner at his finest!
Just watched a horrible VHS degraded recording but it's all worth it for Shatner's outburst...well it would've been worth it anyway. Honestly, despite him being a massive narcissist, I don't blame him. If I was that woman I would've throw the chair AT him for losing me 2 grand lol
Sadly, this is the only copy from that episode known to exist as a majority of the masters no longer exist prior to 1978.
THE BLESSED? AGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!
Bill should get an award for hamming. LOL I think my favorite part was the announcements at the end about "Welcome Back, Kotter," "Barney Miller," and "Carter Country". Wow, did that take me back to elementary school days! I used to love "Carter Country". Used to watch it with my parents...
THE BLESSED? AAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!
Did Nimoy continue to appear on Pyramid after Bill was banned?
8:11 said it all
Didn't he mean that Pyramid was moving to 11:00am? I checked and the show was already at 2:00pm at this time.
that was probably for the Channel 7 viewers
It must have been for viewers in New York or New Jersey or any other state on the East Coast.
@Austin7298 I'm sure it was simply a local thing.
Thumbs down was parshal to Nimoy...C'mon. Nimoy kicks ass I know but you win some you lose some.
THE BLESSED?! AAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH😓!!!!!
He gave William Shatner the foot in the mouth.
Thanks to some unknown Trekker with a Betamax, we get to see William Shatner's biggest gameshow meltdown in perpetuity. I believe he was banned from Pyramid for a time after this outburst.
He's still banned from Pyramid.
8:12 Oh, no!!!!!
Golden harvest shag carpet
OUCH
