They were similar to that of Match Game, the show that gave us Family Feud, and the unplayed panels were tan with a pale blue circle in them. The number sides of the flip panels had the numbers sandwiched between 2 triangles.

Under the board were three little boxes which were used to display the strikes. For most of the series, the digital board in neutral title mode was displayed in yellow on black, but in the pilot and in the early episodes of the Combs run, the board displayed black on yellow.Īll Versions: In the 1975 pilot, the trilon board was housed in a box-like shape, with all three numerical displays (the bank & family's scores) up top. This was not used for the closing of the 1988-1994 series (except for Christmas episodes, which alternated between the show's title and 'MERRY XMAS' with stars on both sides of 'XMAS'), but was used for the closing of the 1994-1995 series. During the opening and sometimes closing of the show, the digital board had an animated light pattern: The original Dawson series had its board light up/turn off one row at a time, while the 1988-1994 series had their board light up/turn off in a 'four square-like' manner. Two sides of the board had twelve flip panels (six in each column) used for revealing answers during the main game (though no question ever had 11 or 12 answers, the most was 10), one of those sides was covered up by the show's logo during the opening and was taken down backstage when the opening was finished, and the words 'DOUBLE' & 'TRIPLE' were placed on both sides of the main game board to indicate that the values were either doubled or tripled, and the third was a digital board which displayed the show's title and was used for Fast Money.
