This was the SYNDICATED premiere. The actual premiere actually premiered on CBS a few months earlier, with the late Jay Stewart announcing & giving the famous tag line "From Television City in Hollywood" and it actually was off of CBS schedule by this time. Many say that this show like Let's Make a Deal (at least back in 1990) wasn't made for morning TV. But they were way popular in syndication.
Thinking it's a pilot...The dollar values are in much smaller fonts than the regular...plus they don't ask the audience to guess where the dragon is... If it's not a pilot, could be the network debut with them possibly choosing to carrying over Stephanie's winnings from a pilot or practice episode...
This may have been a pilot. And, it may have been taped earlier in 1978 than August, as it may have served as both the pilot for a daytime version that ran as a Summer replacement on CBS's daytime schedule that year as well as the long-running syndicated version that began in September, 1978.
Johnny did the end/closing credit announcements, when this show aired the first time. When this episode replayed several months later, they edited the ending/closing portion with Jay's voice. The rerun episodes only have both of their voices. If you are lucky, someone might have an original copy of the first run episode on tape to have only Johnny's voice during the entire show. This practice also applied to "The Joker's Wild".
What happened was the show premiered on September 18 in most markets, while some markets didn't start airing it until the 25th. In the markets that stared airing it on the 18th, this opening disclaimer did not air, while this episode was treated as the "premiere" in the remaining markets.
This "alternate" version is 100% likely the very first episode of the syndicated Tic Tac Dough that started late summer 1978. This was the version of Tic Tac Dough that spawned big winners for an unlimited amount of games played (until they were defeated, of course).
Yes and during that time, JEOPARDY! returned to NBC with the late Art Fleming as host after a 3 year absence and the show moved from NBC Studios in New York to the NBC Studios in Burbank, CA and this version had a Bonus Game called the Super JEOPARDY! Bonus Game and the object of the game is to get 5 in a row horizontally, vertically or diagonally before getting 3 strikes and you win and you earn boxes by giving out the correct response in the form of a question
Funny thing is, CBS cancelled the daytime version two months after its premiere (ran from June to August 1978), then by September 1978, the syndicated version ran for a full eight seasons. Wink hosted this thru 1985 and Jim Caldwell hosted the final season 1985-86. Jay Stewart was the announcer from 1978-1980.
The first season of TTD the contestants who tie doesn't get anything except for parting gifts they feel like they been cheated then during the second season and through out the seasons of the show that player gets $250 after each tie. Sounds like a good deal that probably includes the parting gifts they received
Steve is my step-dad. I'm one of the 7 kids (too many) 😄 We are in the front row. I remember we got a year supply of mac n cheese that took up a big portion of our garage.
I was thinking the same thing. Steve, who is my step-dad, congratulated his opponent with a kiss on the lips... while my mom is sitting in the front row! 😄 I guess it's a sign of the times.
Two questions. First, why do they still have the buzzers when they took out the jump in categories and didn't reintroduce them for another few years? And secondly did they take out the option to stop playing during the bonus game because I've never heard them ask if they want to stop in later years or not?
They didn't have time to change the sceneries until the start of the 2nd season. The buzzers were returned in the 1982-1983 season along with the additional 'orange' catagories.
Most likely there was some post-production that was done and Johnny wasn't available. So Jay (I think was the regular announcer for B&E) did the plugs. A similar thing happened in '85 for Nighttime TRiP. Johnny announced but the plugs were done by Gene Wood.
@@DAPalomares The plugs on the nighttime TPIR were likely done by Gene Wood on some shows because those occurred after Johnny Olsen had passed away in October of 1985. Wood, Rich Jeffries and Rod Roddy all took turns announcing before Roddy became the permanent replacement for Olsen.
jokerswildfan1972 I believe this episode was part of the summer repeats, and Wink intro must be for those who didn’t get the premiere of The New Tic Tac Dough due to it being pre-empted on some local stations, which can happen on a few occasions even in today’s standards
Wink Martindale is a game show legend
And Dj

Yes, but there was an official syndicated premiere episode that started with a game between two new contestants (Carla vs. Logan).

wink martindale was host and johnny gilbert announced.
I do remember seeing the 2nd Appearance of Ron La Scala, an Air Force Major from Colorado Springs, Colorado, on Tic Tac Dough.
I LOVE TIC TAC DOUGH.
I Remember Tic Tac Dough!
It’s coming up in August on gsn classic reboot tic tac dough
I LOVE THIS SHOW
I remember this! Thanks for posting!
Steve looks like, "dude i got seven kids, i NEED THIS"
Steve is my step dad. We actually got some good consolation prizes. Including a year supply of mac n cheese, Butterfingers, and peanut brittle 😄
Anybody notice when Wink started to come out, he was in a tan suit and then it cut to him in blue?
They probably used the intro of the premiere.
I always wondered why the numbers in the bonus round were so small? Love Wink Martindale and Tic Tac Dough!!!

50-150-250-350-400-500, interesting combination. Still adds up to the same, though dare I say slightly easier to win with 3 calls.
The way Ron came out looks like he's ready to play
This is way before Johnny was announcer on Jeopardy
Yes and during that time, JEOPARDY! returned to NBC with the late Art Fleming as host after a 3 year absence and the show moved from NBC Studios in New York to the NBC Studios in Burbank, CA and this version had a Bonus Game called the Super JEOPARDY!

Actually it was only 6 years away, Ironically during J!'s first season, Johnny would also substitute for Charlie O Donnell on TTD
@@thewipsportstalkfan3160 And also did his first Wheel of Fortune gig in 1988 on the daytime version.
@@tnawcwvictoria Merv Griffin hated that format which is why that version of Jeopardy, the last one Art Fleming hosted only lasted one season.
not to embarrass you but Johnny Gilbert's career goes back to the 1950s
This classic game show has went from CBS to Syndication.

It also means “the stone of the Franks.”

Strange how they are all kissing each other. I don't remember seeing that when I watched TV in the 1970s.
Ever watch Richard Dawson on Family Feud?
@@bigroy38 Oh yeah forgot about that but wasnt that more in the 80s?

What about the Price is Right and Bob and a female contestant?

I love Laurie, I wonder what became of her :)
Anybody know why Jay Stewart read the fee plugs at the end of Tic Tac Dough instead of Johnny Gilbert?

It also looks like a later rerun of the show because they usually new fee plugs to replace the old one originally aired.

What a goober for stopping in bonus game.

How is this considered the alternate premier? Interesting.

What's Wink doing with the Bob Barker mic?
On barry and Enright game show wink used the sony ecm51 microphone jack barry used it on jokers wild too
Kevin Jackson and Jim Caldwell used it too
And think filmed at CBS Television City too.
