It was never called "The All New Jeopardy"

[beeperaxis]

I've been slowly organizing all of the Jeopardy episodes I can get my hands on and ran across The All-New Jeopardy! when organizing the episodes I have from Fleming. The issue is, the short lived 1978 reboot was never called The All-New Jeopardy, it was just called Jeopardy.

I'm not exactly sure where this error originated, but if you watch every episode available of this reboot, comb through newspaper listings and even the copyright registration, not once is the "all-new" title ever used officially. My only guess as to how this mistake was made is because when the show was brought back many TV-schedules in newspapers referred to it as "the all-new Jeopardy!", not as a title, but simply stating it's new. They used the same phrasing when the show was rebooted again in 1984 with Trebek. When Fleming died, newspapers did use this name for its 1978 iteration, but this is likely just coming from the misunderstanding of how the show was described when it first aired.

The All-New Jeopardy! was never officially called that any time when it aired. The damage is probably too far done to fix this, but I figured I'd post this somewhere for prosperity.

The CBS run of Card SHarks was called New Card SHarks in TV Guide early in its run, but only once was it called "The New" on air.
