Trivia:

During the first season, original Pyramid host Dick Clark was a guest player along with game show queen Betty White during a week, called the "Dick Clark Challenge". It was the first time Dick was on the show since 1988 and the first time he was a Pyramid player since 1978. While Clark hosted the daytime version back then, he was a frequent player on the syndicated version of the '70s with Bill Cullen as host.

Quite possibly the best revival ever.

Pyramid is the best revival game show in years, it's way better than that godawful card sharks 2 years ago, it had cool computer generated effects, Great music theme and a smooth set, (nice black marble), and bigger money, I Hope more game shows follow suit, Forget the jerry springers and the stupid reality tv shows on the air right now, this is the best to be.
