* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gF3Cq1btV0 The 1980s soundtrack]].
* ReplacementScrappy: Monty Hall, generally because he wasn't nearly as fast as Tom Kennedy (and on a show called ''Split Second'', you want '''fast'''). Robb Weller, on the other hand, just couldn't compete with a pair of legends.
** Another strike against Monty: He would occasionally slip up and inadvertently give an answer to at least one part of a question before all three contestants had the opportunity to answer.
* ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs: ''Series/{{Jeopardy}}'' on speed, at least during the Creator/{{ABC}} run.
* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: Both versions had sets and logos that matched their decades: the 70s was brown, beige and orange, while the 80s was blue, pink, and white.
