He already said he doesn't remember her being on Pyramid. OK, do you know then Vahan?

Nope. I don't. I might have confused Pyramid with Match Game from 1981.
And I also must have confused her with Lisa, who was on August 3, 1984.

I noticed, on last Friday's airing of Super Password (from early May 1985, please clarify date?), there was a contestant named Debbie, who reminds me of the Debbie who would be the first champion on Bill Rafferty's Blockbusters two years later. Was this the same person? Hilly Lichtenstein was on a few weeks after Shannon, and Chou Chou Grant was on the Clark $100K in 1986. And Chou Chou would also appear on $ale of the Century in October 1988.

Debbie Carlson was indeed on the Rafferty "Blockbusters" premiere, after she had appeared on "Super Password" on May 2 and 3 of 1985. Her opponent on the premiere, Stacy Turner, had also been on "Super Password" -- during the first full week of January 1985 -- and was on the premiere of "The Match Game/Hollywood Squares Hour."
"Blockbusters" mined the "Super Password" files for a good deal of their early contestants. In all, four players from the premiere week of "Blockbusters" had been on "Super Password."

Joyce Weiss Stevens was the contestant coordinator for both SP and BB87. Joyce often got mentioned by first name on Super Password, and sometimes her co-coordinator, Ginger(Johnson) did as well.

He was asked the question about Madonna as to whether people over 60 thought she was cute or not. Risha played against Maury on Rafferty CS and also won seven games on Perry CS. Amy ALbani Schultz was on JOker's WIld CBS, Scrabble(won nine Sprint rounds), and on Double Talk a couple of times, brought back due to a technical problem. Speaking of Maury, I just noticed he was on Match Game/Hollywood Squares Hour last night (aired Oct 21st on Buzzr as I'm trying to catch up). He was the same age (75 at the time) as panelist Nedra Volz but didn't win his game.

I have another one for you, Trista, in the Family Face-Off episode of Season 3 Idiotest won 1 game of Classic Concentration in 1991, I said that because she said she won a car on her first attempt to play for the cars(it was at the time where for instance a player failed to win a car with 45 seconds but then a new champion came in later in the same episode with a base time of 35 seconds and won the car).

Someone we haven't mentioned all this time, Emilie Kong, she had the distinctive honor of being the first Body Language contestant to continue her championship reign after exceeding $25,000 in total winnings(after the new winnings limit of $50,000 was inaugurated), she was last partnered with Joanne Worley on November 9, 1984 and supposed to have lost her 2nd episode but returned on January 30, 1985 and was partnered with Ed Nelson. She later appeared on Super Password in the first week of January 1986, the $100,000 Pyramid on the week where Keif had to wait the whole week(that week began with 2 new players for some reason) and the ABC remake of Match Game.

Keif Ferrandini's has to sit out a week of $100K because her husband was a stuntman and knew celebrity guest Terry Lester from his work. Tonight's $otC from 9/9/1988 will have Damon Jones, who won $9048 on PYL on 5/15/85

Speaking of Rafferty's "Blockbusters", I discovered another future Blockbusters contestant on today's Buzzr airing of "Super Password". The female contestant Laurel, who would appear on Rafferty's "Blockbusters" later in January 1987, was a contestant on "Super Password" on at least May 7 and 8, 1985, as I saw her May 8, 1985 episode yesterday.

Two contestants named Val and Kim competed together on both Super Password and Blockbusters 1987, as per a post in alt.tv.game-shows.

Does anyone know what portion of the MGHSH premiere Stacy Turner played?
Based strictly on the BUZZR airings of MGHSH, which began with episode 2, the only known contestant name (out of three) from the premiere (episode 1) is Laurie Gauze, who was in the champion seat for the HS portion of episode 2, after having won the HS portion of the premiere. So on the premiere Laurie Gauze was able to play HS by either winning MG, or had been designated to sit in the champion seat for HS. No way to tell how Stacy Turner fits in.

Does anyone know what portion of the MGHSH premiere Stacy Turner played? She was the designated HS champion. Laurie and David Bantley played MG that day.
David was also one of the early contestants when Tom Kennedy took over "Password Plus" in 1980. He was partnered with Audrey Landers and Jack Jones.
