  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: Several episodes aired by GSN and/or Buzzr also circulate in their unedited forms (i.e., with original commercials), and can be found on some public-domain DVD compilations or among collectors. The two most often-seen episodes on these compilations are the January 3, 1955 episode with Salvador Dali, and the April 25, 1955 episode with Emmett Kelly.
  • Missing Episode: The first eight months, as the earliest episode both GSN and Buzzr have aired was from August 6, 1952. Several other episodes from 1952-55 appear to be missing as well. Here's a comprehensive list.
  • Real-Life Relative: Two examples back to back on April 18, 1955. First, Ray Goulding's son appeared as the first contestant, his card reading "Ray's Son (Bob had nothing to do with it)". Then that night's guest, Leo Durocher, had a "Secret Wish" that was guessed by his wife on the panel (Lorraine Day).
