unknown what the third stunt involved. If there was extra time at the end of the show, there would be team stunts to allow a team to catch up on points. The four children on the winning team won grand prizes of bicycles for the studio contestants and cameras for the home partners. The other team received a sportsmanship award of ice skates for both the studio contestants and home partners. Pilot On April 23, 2005 and November 27, 2007, GSN aired the 1953 pilot produced for CBS with Bob Kennedy as host. The teams were called the "Space Rangers" and the "Cowboys", with each team having a large bleacher of children on its side. A child from each team competed in stunts, and then gained points on a ring-toss board with each peg marked with a number of points. The child who won the stunt would throw two rings for their team and the child who lost would throw one. The show had three "magic numbers" each show, which if the team's point total match would win them 10 extra points, and a special prize for the child who tossed the ring. The process repeated with different children from each team until the show ran out of time. All children on both teams received a "sportsmanship prize", such as a camera, and the members of the winning team, along with several home viewers chosen from a pool of write-ins, won a grand prize, such as a watch. Stunts The stunts used throughout the run were devised by Bob Howard and Frank Wayne; the same two men also did the stunts for Beat the Clock, which was still on the air at the time. Episode status The series may or may not be destroyed; this is uncertain because, although Goodson-Todman usually kept its shows, NBC would usually destroy anything it didn't think was worth keeping. Children's shows were no exception, unless companies dictated otherwise. GSN aired the pilot and the first five episodes in the past. On September 11, 2017, Buzzr aired the first episode as part of their "Lost and Found" event. It eventually aired the pilot, on January 16, 2023.
