Jack Narz was a veteran host of many game shows (he was also the brother of Tom Kennedy another game show host). Mr. Narz even came to Canada to host a revised version of the classic "Beat the Clock"--he later hosted the new version of Concentration
Concentration ended in the early 1980’s Narz version a because Mark Goodson /Bill Todman had a lease from NBC for seven years(Narz version was syndicated),and NBC was afraid that CBS or ABC was going to steal Concentration from NBC and make it their own!! Jack Narz was approached by NBC in 1984 to host a restart of Concentration,but he was not interested and Orson Bean ended up getting a pilot that NBC hated and ABC wanted bigger income from advertisers for the Concentration reboot! Alex Trebec did a pilot,NBC loved it,and Concentration came back to life under the name Classic Concentration for over five years from 1985-1990!!
Although I do miss the elimination round from the previous season I do like how they changed the format for the championship game by eliminating the clock and giving the contestants the right to play to one hundred points
I could never understand why CBS cancelled this show in June 1975. They actually replaced it with Musical Chairs , different time slot. Musical Chairs was a bust.
It was a very busy studio. Except for The Price Is Right, which is so complicated they could only tape two episodes a day, game shows tape five shows a day. Carol Burnett only used stage 33 one day a week.
Unfortunately, Carly seems to have died a few years ago. Google "Carly Cady" - her obituary mentions she was a big winner on several game shows. I wonder what other shows she was on?
+Trevor Panno Not really. The show was revamped in the middle of the run, so that there was no elimination game. The semi final became the qualifying game, the final became the championship game. They played it to 50 and then after 50, they doubled the point value of the answers. 100 was the winning point

That should be on ABC along with Card Sharks,Press Your Luck and The Match Game!!
I agree that game show along with Double Dare should be in on ABC lineup in the Summer Fun & Games lineup.
@@christopherwilcox6825 You're talking about Nickelodeon's Double Dare, right? Because Nick already tried that, and it just recently went off the air.
@@wturner777 Not the Nickelodeon version, but the version in 1976-77 on CBS hosted by Alex Trebek.
@@christopherwilcox6825 Thought so, lol. I doubt they'll bring that back because of its short run. We never know.
I remember my first Lucy hug. Her name is Lucy Tanner. We met in Beverly Hills.

This format of NYSI was much better than the first.
I liked the first format much better than the later format.
This episode has been on TH-cam longer than 8 years...
Crying during victory is uncommon.
She won the equivalent of $56,000 in today's money. 😃
How did that one studio tape so many shows (?) Burnett,Price, Match.....

please increase volume not working well
The first round is sort of "Scrabble-esque".
April 22, 1975
Carly could get a late night text...if that was around in the 70s
Unfortunately, Carly seems to have died a few years ago. Google "Carly Cady" - her obituary mentions she was a big winner on several game shows. I wonder what other shows she was on?
I wonder if 100 is a record for the finals.

I like the way all five contestants would come down the stairs..
She cried, when she won $12,000.
Some contestants cry after winning big money on game shows.
Tears of joy. Nothing wrong with that though.
Yep.
Carly cried in victory.
Jack Narz gave her a paper towel for Carly, because she was crying.
I think $6200 is the most anyway went to the solo game with, isn't it?
So does Johnny Olsen do ALL the game shows
Gene Wood announced a week of episodes in 1975.
Not all of them. Many were announced by Gene Wood. But at this time, Johnny was announcing at least five different shows a week.
I knew the answer to the question which was balloon
