Through email I've received a theory that GSN marked the game as June 1985, but it was the rerunning of the game and not the original airing where he thinks Michael's run may have been 11/2-11/7/84 due to clues from the ending credits. Is that possible? There is no complete S1 rerun list anywhere, right? My memory is SSgt. Paul's games were shown again for one set.
Okay, Cathy Pentecost can make sense. It's harder to turn up old news stories about contestants when they are from bigger-type cities in the west.
