 Chuck Barris had acquired the rights to both this show and another Jan Murray series, "Treasure Hunt".“Second” was produced by veteran producer Willie Stein and Barris producer David M. Greenfield, who had worked with Eubanks on “The Newlywed Game”.Had "Dollar a Second" been sold, it would have most likely been partnered with the revamped "Hunt" in five-a-week syndication.
