There have been several incarnations of the Pyramid game show with the first one dating all the way back to March 1973. The $100,000 Pyramid version has run in syndication but hasn’t been in primetime. Will this game show be a winner in the ratings for ABC? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.

Love this show. They should show it all year. Michael Strahan is a fantastic emcee. Please keep it on.
Great game show, challenging, entertaining and wonderful to see the wholesome banter and fun had by all involved. Thanks. Very refreshing and entertaining
Excited about the new $100,000 Pyramid with Michael Strahan. I also enjoy the original with Dick Clark.
