Oh I'm so sad. I remember watching this with my mom and I idolized Shelly Smith! I've always vowed be just like her! She was beautiful, intelligent, sophisticated and sexy. I've never seen anyone like her since. Not even me! Shelly you are 1 of a kind and such a beautiful inspiration! Thank you for being such a beautiful role model to us impressionable girls! God bless you. Of coarse, I'm older now and thought of Shelly throughout the years - growing up. I'd sometimes think to myself "that's not acting sophisticated and smart like Ms. Shelly Smith". I'm tearing up. I Dont even know if she knew she was such a great role model 😢 RIP!
Also the color seems really bright on the $100,000 pyramid. Maybe thats just because of the way im watching it from my computer but i think its a little bright. I really wish i could get gametv just to see the $100,000 pyramid running again. As much as i like the michael strahan version no one tops the DC. I think this episode originally had a ticket or a contestant plug that wasnt shown here along with the fees.
@@jwgreek8606 i dont know if the fee plugs were shown here on the gametv airing or if blanquepage cut them out because based on what ive seen through credit crunches, the first two fee plugs (playtex living gloves and riunite natural peach) would guaranteed be hit with a copyright strike if posted to youtube.
I'll be honest, I never liked Pyramid. I always viewed it as a show that was more about the money rather than the actual game itself, because looking at the show's gameplay, it's just Password but instead of being limited to one word you're limited to a time limit and you have to answer a bunch of words in a category. The music was god awful, the set they used in the 70s was one of the biggest eyesores i've ever seen, and all and all it's a perfect example as to why I believe Bob Stewart is an overrated hack who couldn't make a good game as an independent producer, which is why outside of Pyramid every other game show he made as an independent producer flopped and only lasted a few months before getting cancelled since all of his game shows were either "answer words with Celebrity Partners" or "compete with a team for a week"..
@@JohnathanWilliamson849 well Pyramid was a spinoff of password just meant to be a high stakes version of it i guess. Three on a match and Jackpot lasted a few years though. Chain Reaction lasted 5 years and didnt have celebrities (originally it did.)
@@GarryGriffy The whole high stakes spinoff just seems lazy and a way to avoid creating your own game. It's also why I don't like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire as looking at the format it's a pretty bland format that is basically the $64,000 question's money tree but with more money and no isolation booths. But back to the topic at hand Three on a Match quickly became forgotten after it was on the air, Jackpot only lasted a year in the US in the 70s, had to move to Canada where it aired for 3 years in the 80s and then moved back to the US where it aired for just the 89-90 season before getting cancelled again, and the Bob Stewart version of Chain Reaction only lasted a few months in the US before it got cancelled due to David Letterman's show and had to move over to Canada like Jackpot to continue airing. I mean even looking at the Dick Clark-hosted version of the $100,000 Pyramid, it only lasted 3 years before getting cancelled, and it mainly aired on independent stations in it's biggest markets even at it's peak.
One of the all-time BEST players ever. Smart dresser, sophisticated and brilliant mind. RIP Shelley.
Whoever said blondes were dumb hasn't met Shelley Smith!! #RIP 😔

RIP one of the best Pyramid players ever, Shelley Smith!!!
Thanks so much for putting this together. Shelly was a magnificent Pyramid player AND a hell of a good human being.
Joel's clue for *"Out of Africa"* was brilliant!!
R.I.P. Shelley Smith... One of the *GREATEST "Pyramid-ers" EVER.*
100K is, assuming guide references are correct, 10/9/86.
And that has to be one of the most madcap endings to a front game that I've seen.
RIP shelly you will be missed 😢
To this date, that 26 second record remains, 46yrs later
10:07 - RIP Rebecca Schaeffer & Shelley Smith
18:03 masterful clues Ms. Smith.

This was why Shelley had to get an extra point after the win.

Me too they are like USA. Show the credits in full, unedit the ads,, show ticket and Contestant plugs etc.

Ironically i am watching this on a Sunday
18:35 YES!!!! 29 seconds
Awww, Shelley Smith died?
Do you have any episodes of The $1 Million Chance of a Lifetime?
Why did this happen
Or an afternoon movie and they could have used Football as a clue
I can't believe GAMEtv can air Clark $100,000 Pyramid, but GSN can't?
gsn can, but they just won't it isn't a cheap original or harvey
Would it be too much to ask to put Shelley Smith in the thumbnail?
I didn't know she died
Peggy Cass should have stuck to panel shows.
When did she pass?😢
late last year:(
16:00 wrong Stewart show
*"Double Talk!"*
