Trivia
On Monday, 23 December 1974, ABC's "$10,000 Pyramid" welcomed a new time-slot (2:00pm Mondays-Fridays [Eastern]) and a new feature called "The Big 7", which if a team picked a category where a special designated card was hidden beneath somewhere on the mini pyramid game board during the main game, the civilian contestant would be eligible to win a bonus prize if he or she was able to get a perfect score of seven points within a round.

Faltering ratings prompted CBS to prematurely cancel the show on Friday, March 29, 1974 with celebrity guests Carol Channing and Soupy Sales. After a mere absence of just five weeks, the show returned on ABC-TV Monday, May 6, 1974 at 4:00pm (Eastern) with celebrity guests Anne Meara and Soupy Sales. That same fall, a once-a-week night-time "$25,000 Pyramid" version for syndication in the prime-access time slot debuted with host Bill Cullen and celebrity guests Anne Meara and William Shatner.

The first celebrity guests on the premiere were June Lockhart and Rob Reiner; Rob Reiner went on to become the first celebrity with his civilian partner to successfully climb to the top of the big pyramid (his winning clue for "Things With A Hole" was "Doughnuts").
