- Here's another rarity - a full episode (albeit the audio only) of Jeopardy!, back when Art Fleming was the host and Don Pardo was the announcer, as aired over WMAQ Channel 5. This episode is not known to exist in any form until now.
The contestants on this show are Mrs. Jean Hoyda(?), housewife from Danboro, PA; Mr. Bill Pemble(?), information specialist (with the Department of Agriculture) from Arlington, VA; and reigning champion Mrs. Joan Wiesman(?), housewife from Kew Gardens, NY (who had won $400 so far)
Includes:
Station ID (voiceover by ??), followed by brief top-of-hour ~750 Hz time tone and 1962 "Laramie Peacock" animated opening (voiceover by Mel Brandt)
Jeopardy! opening, with Don introducing contestants, Art coming out and speaking with his contestants

[Commercial cut?]
First round, categories are Relatives, Transportation, Hodgepodge, Animals, Singers and Dancers, and Fairytales; Art explains rules. Joan selects Singers and Dancers, then Relatives, then returns to Singers and Dancers, then goes to Fairytales again, then to Transportation; at that point Bill picks Transportation entries. With Joan ahead of Bill and Jean now in the minus column.

Round 2, with Bill starting off selecting Transportation, then Hodgepodge, at which point Joan selects Fairytales, then Relatives and Hodgepodge which Bill continues, all the way to the Daily Double, then passes to Relatives and Animals.
Commercial: Eureka 240 vacuum cleaner
Plug for Grolier's Encyclopedia International (voiceover by Don Pardo)
Back to the game, with the "Double Jeopardy" round; categories are Journalism, Silly Songs, Business and Industry, Military History, Words and World Geography; two Daily Doubles are concealed among them. Jean starts off with Words, then Silly Songs, which Joan answers and then picks Military History, after which Bill picks Journalism, then after Jean answers with a question she picks Silly Songs, Words, and Business and Industry; then Bill goes for Journalism (again), after which Joan selects Silly Songs, and is way in the lead over Bill and Jean when Art segues to next break
(Eureka commercial, which is cut out of this recording).
Art then comes back to Double Jeopardy, whereby Joan starts off by selecting Business and Industry, then Jean carries on in that category, which Bill "asks" and then picks Journalism followed by World Geography and then Business and Industry and Military History, the latter of which Joan carries on. The bell signals the end of the Double Jeopardy round, then Art previews the Final Jeopardy round to come. At this point, Joan leads with $460, Bill $170 and Jean $150.
Commercial: Imperial Margarine
Commercial: Cold Water All laundry detergent (ending voiceover by Jackson Beck)
Final Jeopardy category is Famous Names: "The new vice president of the Oakland Athletics baseball team"; Art then signals for final break.

The final tally: Jean, $200 and Bill, $290 (plus the latest Encyclopedia International); and Joan, $800 and returning for a third time next day. With that, Art closes the show.

3:40 I love the music used when the curtains are pulled back to reveal the game board.
Love that classy fast-stepping beat to the intro music sadly lost in the more modern version. My mother had this on in mornings when I was knee high to a grasshopper in those late 1960's.
This aired on my 9th birthday.
I'm 24 years old, and love these old game shows, with or without video. I'm also here because of Weird Al's "I Lost on Jeopardy"
Nobody won a total of $1,000 on Jeopardy on that show in 1968. The country was still recuperating from the tragic death of Martin Luther King, and soon thereafter, another tragedy: Robert Kennedy (President John Kennedy's brother)---all would die before they turned 50. Old Jeopardy, whose categories never went higher than $100 per selection, often didn't have anyone win $1,000 on a single show as contestants do now on Jeopardy with assorted hosts (after Alex passed away).
23.25...that famed think music would make it to the current run of Jeopardy! starting in 1984 and going to about 1996 or 97.
Actually it was 1997 when Jeopardy stopped using the 1960s FJ think music when the show switched to a new theme.
mbclev Which had 2 permutations. In the first 2 weeks (I think so), the theme was entirely played on Piano. But, since then it was changed to a trumpet lead at the end. It was used all the way until Season 25, when yet another version was introduced, but you should find that.
@@LEGOGames1000YT Interesting thing too...the version of that tune that was used from 84 to 97, was actually slightly different from the original, as it was a little higher pitched. Not sure how many have ever noticed that, but if you play them back to back you can hear the difference.
ajk You're right! But maybe it was higher pitched in the original series as well, but lower pitched due to the recorders. I dunno, you decide it.
@@LEGOGames1000YT Hmm could be......hard to know for sure I suppose.
I want more of these!
0:13 now entering the studio...

@D Heine - One wonders what Lin Bolen would have thought of this turn of events. Remember, as head of daytime programming for NBC in the early to mid '70's, she oversaw the cancellation of the Bob Clayton "Concentration" and "Jeopardy!," considering Fleming on the latter another "dinosaur," while propping up the likes of Trebek and Geoff Edwards. Who would've thought that Trebek is not only older than Fleming was when the original "Jeopardy!" was cancelled in 1975, but the syndie version he has helmed has lasted more than three times as long.
@@wmbrown6 Requiescat in pace Alex, Geoff and Lin!!! :) :) :)
@@wmbrown6Fleming did Jeopardy better imo.
@@Delivery_Boy_Roy - Certainly the Fleming "Jeopardy!" is preferential to all that came afterwards . . .
Thanks for posting this. I'm pretty sure that's the voice of William Schallert starting at 24:50 for Carnation Instant Breakfast.
Yes
This is what Jeopardy should be, a nice formal show with a good amount of light hearted banter. Art Fleming truly did this show best. :)
There's an audio from an August 1968 show on you tube too!
that was so 50 years ago today
Is it safe to assume this was recorded by the family of one of the contestants? Otherwise it's a random thing to have saved, but great to have either way. Thanks for sharing.
Fascinating to listen to! The ending was a little awkward: It sounded like at the 26:30 mark, there was trouble playing the closing theme music, and then the audience wasn’t sure whether to applaud or not. Sounds like the show must have gone “live to tape” for that to happen!
When the closing theme resumes, it is the clearest on nearly any of the episodes on RUclips. Finding a full run of the closing theme that is clear has been an ongoing dream for me, still unmet.
But now met because it is preserved on the pilot episode from 1964 that has a full credits run and the best quality of the Take Ten theme I have heard since the show went off the air in 1975. PS: Based on the length of time hearing the closing theme without any voiceover, I am guessing that this would have been one of the rare times Jeopardy! ran the full credits. The show was perennially rushed at the end, leading to the omission of credits and the omission of the playing of Take Ten! in many episodes. That is probably why in 1998 when Game Show Themes was a category on Jeopardy!, the last answer, the original Jeopardy! theme, none of the contestants could identify it.
26:36 Oops...somebody didn't rack the closing music up correctly...hence the dead silence...THEN the theme music starts....
It's too bad this doesn't go a few more minutes to capture the opening of EYE GUESS or a full half-hour to get the whole show.
Fun Fact, Mel Gibson's father was the Grand Champion of the game this year.
I hope someone needs to reconstruct this game show with just the slideshow of the host, the title sequence and the contestants along with the game board with text on screen. This might be a great idea for this lost episode.
Didnt hollywood squares come on before this
Joe DiMaggio a VP of the Oakland A's? I associate him with the New York Yankees. Was he ever involved with the Athletics, either in Philadelphia or Kansas City, the cites the A's were in before Oakland?
He grew up in San Francisco
Just curious was the nbc version of jeopardy live
No. It was pre-recorded
23:25
11:32 50/50 chance and 14:49 1-in-3 chance of guessig the right answer? The Jeopardy format has evolved since then.
Those events still happen even in the modern Jeopardy.
