After only a year on CBS, Child's Play ended its run hosted by Bill Cullen and this was his last show he hosted for CBS. The opening featured all the kids who were on Child's Play from the past year were in attendance with their siblings and parents. The final 2 players in the finale were Pam who won $11,000 from the Turnabout bonus game a day earlier and her new challenger, Patricia. Patricia became the last ever champion as Pam leaves with $11,000.
Before the final Turnabout bonus game is played, a small tribute to Bill Cullen was profiled from the video interviews. On this final week of Child's Play, the kids for the bonus round were Debbie from California, Ronald from California, Sascha from New York, Juile Ann from California, and Cathy from New York. Patricia ended the show with a bang as she was the last person to win $5,000 with 11 seconds left and the kids on the panel shares $7,600 between them.
In the closing moments, Bill Cullen thanked the parents who let their kids be a part of Child's Play, including the staff who made it possible and the credits rolled as the kids who were on Child's Play were seen on camera one last time.
The following Monday, September 19th, CBS debuts a new show Press Your Luck with Peter Tomarken who hosted Hit Man from January to April of 1983.
