    • Trivia
      For this syndicated nighttime edition, Bob Eubanks, the host of the CBS daytime edition, was very busy hosting The New Newlywed Game (1984), and could not host it. Jim Perry, the host of the original NBC Card Sharks (1978) was considered, but was still hosting the NBC daytime Sale of the Century (1983) as well as a syndicated nighttime edition at the time. Ultimately the job was given to Bill Rafferty, who was best known for his role on Real People (1979) on NBC.
