Episode Status
Despite running for five seasons, the series is believed to be destroyed. Although the status of the KTLA versions remain unknown, the ABC tapes are believed to have been either destroyed or reused as per network practices at the time.
Only three episodes are known to exist among collectors – Episode #9 of the original KTLA version (September 22, 1960), an ABC episode from July 12, 1962, and a second episode from KTLA. A complete ABC episode from May 24, 1963 was discovered on audio tape in March 2010.
The UCLA Film and Television Archive holds two episodes along with a clip from a KTLA blooper reel (described as "a box is stuck from the game show Seven Keys").

Famous quotes containing the words episode and/or status:
“The press is no substitute for institutions. It is like the beam of a searchlight that moves restlessly about, bringing one episode and then another out of darkness into vision. Men cannot do the work of the world by this light alone. They cannot govern society by episodes, incidents, and eruptions. It is only when they work by a steady light of their own, that the press, when it is turned upon them, reveals a situation intelligible enough for a popular decision.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
“As a work of art it has the same status as a long conversation between two not very bright drunks.”
—Clive James (b. 1939)
