Unsold Pilots Collection

CROSSWORD (George Fenneman) - The pilot for what became the Cross-Wits. * Pilot; Tippi Hedrin and Hank vs. Paul Lynde and Polly (KIN, TMS2.3)

DOLLAR A SECOND (Bob Eubanks) - One of the stupidest game show ideas I've ever heard of. * 1981 Pilot; first contestant: Lori; mediocre commercial edits (GSN, NJ1A.1)

LUCKY NUMBERS (Alex Trebek, Debbie Sue Maffett) - A pilot for a dice game with similarities and differences to "High Rollers", which was revived 2 years later with the same music, though the same host by then already had two hosting jobs. * 1985 Pilot #1; Vicki vs. Jeryl; announcer: John Harlan (SM, CJC2.5) * 1985 Pilot #2; Michael vs. Vicki (SM, JD2F.5)

MONDAY NIGHT QUARTERBACK (Jerry Kramer) - Football play prediction game that would've worked better in the ESPN era. * 1972 Pilot; Dick Martin & John Hadl vs. Peter Lawford & Myron Pottios; mediocre commercial edits (GSN, NJ1A.2)

THE RIDDLERS (David Letterman) - Letterman would've been a great game show host... * 1977 Pilot for NBC; Jo Anne Worley, Robert Urich, Joyce Bulifant, Michael McKean, Debralee Scott vs. Dance Instructors; announcer: Jack Clark (GSN, JP3.2)

THE $10,000 SWEEP (Jack Clark) - The prize actually would've predated the Pyramid. * 1972 Pilot for ABC; first game: Tom and Coleman vs. Cindy and Sue; announcer: Don Pardo (GSN, JP3.5)

TWISTERS (Jim Perry) - A neat game that somehow didn't sit well with the networks. I would think otherwise... But at least its rejection opened the door to $ale of the Century for Jim Perry. * 1982 Pilot for NBC; first King of the Hill: Meme (GSN, NJ1A.5)
