The Pyramid could have been a quick game show that came and went. In fact, the original "$10,000 Pyramid was cancelled after a short 13 weeks. However, with faith that the series had potential, the show went on and on. It became so popular, that in two eras, the show was actually aired twice, in two different runs! (In the late seventies, you could watch Dick Clark and his "$20,000" version on weekdays and catch Bill Cullen and his "$25,000" edition on the weekends. Plus, in the mid to late eighties, you could watch The $25,000 Pyramid with Dick Clark in the morning, and then during the night, you could watch his richest edition: The $100,000 Pyramid!)

It appears that the current version of Pyramid with host Donny Osmond is going to be renewed for a second season of episodes! Sony Pictures Television is supposedly very happy with the 2.0 they have been getting on the show as of late. More details on season 2 to come as they are known.

At SuperShow 8000, you can learn about the various eras of this infamous game show, read a fantastic article by "Pyramid Expert" William Padron, who has seen the Pyramid many times in person, and learn more about the very short lived "$50,000 Pyramid", which was the first time the show used a tournament format. Of course, you need rules to the game, and we have a picture archive. Plus, you'll be able to read various articles, as well as view some newspaper advertisements for various runs of The Pyramid! Also, you can now get information about the new rule changes for the current version of the show. Yes, while the maingame was made even harder, the Winner's Circle was made, even easier. Take a look!

You can watch the various versions of the seventies and the eighties episodes with host Dick Clark on Game Show Network. The $25,000 Pyramid airs weekends at 11:00am. The $100,000 Pyramid airs weekdays at 6:00pm and weekends at 5:00pm. Also, episodes from the $10,000, $20,000, $25,000 and $100,000 Pyramids air on a special block called "Pyramid Thursdays", which airs every Thursday night from 8pm to 10pm. (All EST).
