They finally got Emile in the end! For probably the last 20 episodes they tried to get him to crack. My friend and I were watching reruns every night at about 2AM around 85 and it was the best storyline on TV.
I am an acquaintance of Mr. Autouri's nephew and I am pleased to report that according to him, he is alive and well to this day and living in the Los Angeles area.
@setheriah There were two more episodes of Treasure Hunt after this one. There was the $21,000 check episode. And then the $22,000 check episode, which was presumably the last show (it was all klunks). I hope some posts this episode soon.
For some reason, I had a feeling she was going to be clunked. Also, If she ended up going to Hawaii, she could find out the Hawaiian words for "give me your grass skirt" are.
Emile has passed away. Jan made a couple of cameos in movies in the early 80s. There was a contestant named Jan Speck on Classic Concentration in 1987, but it is not the same person.
Yes. I remember seeing Jan in the Chevy Chase movie Modern Problems and see appeared in an episode of Three's Company toward the end of the series run.
Emile, Jan, and the klunk noise were hilarious, and the late Geoff Edwards was a very underrated game show host.
Geoff Edwards was the perfect host for this show. I loved the crazy skits they did on here.
RIP, Geoff. Those KMPC reunions are getting tougher and tougher to schedule.

In the 70s, WAVE 3 in Louisville was the best place to catch The New Treasure Hunt.

He left us in 2017.

@Lupton2000 so there was no 20k episode just a 21k ep and a 22k ep ....
