Episode Status
As per NBC policy at the time, most episodes of the daytime version were destroyed. The pilot and finale both circulate among collectors, and a 1975 episode from the Warhol collection is held by The Paley Center for Media in New York, as well as two other episodes.
In addition, the last 30 seconds of the January 6, 1975 show exist on audio tape; this clip features Chuck Woolery promoting the show airing immediately after Sweepstakes that day – the first episode of Wheel Of Fortune.
The status of the syndicated versions is unknown, but possibly destroyed or otherwise deteriorated into an unviewable condition.

Famous quotes containing the words episode and/or status:
“Youth is the period in which a man can be hopeless. The end of every episode is the end of the world. But the power of hoping through everything, the knowledge that the soul survives its adventures, that great inspiration comes to the middle-aged.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
“Knowing how beleaguered working mothers truly are—knowing because I am one of them—I am still amazed at how one need only say “I work” to be forgiven all expectation, to be assigned almost a handicapped status that no decent human being would burden further with demands. “I work” has become the universally accepted excuse, invoked as an all-purpose explanation for bowing out, not participating, letting others down, or otherwise behaving inexcusably.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
