"What's My Line?" - Number of episodes

The "What's My Line?" title page states there are 877 episodes. However, the episode list shows only 876: - one season (1) with 15 episodes; - one season (18) with 48 episodes; - two seasons (10, 11) with 49 episodes; - seven seasons (2, 12-17) with 50 episodes; - one season (6) with 51 episodes; - four seasons (4, 5, 7, 8) with 52 episodes; and - two seasons (3, 9) with 53 episodes. So where's the 877th episode?

Hi, Jim: Actually... - Season 5 has 53 episodes, not 52 (note T5.E0 ∙ Special Community Chest Edition) [+1] - Season 16 has 51 episodes, not 50 [+1] - Season 17 has 49 episodes, not 50 [-1]. So, two episodes that had not been counted, minus one that had been overcounted... there's the missing one. Cheers!
