I'm sure someone will post the promo for it soon enough, but on March 19th, Buzzr will air a marathon of game shows featuring hilarious bloopers and antics during Let's Laugh Day. Analyzing the spot, it looks like we'll see TV's Funniest Game Show Moments 2 (A special that I believe hasn't been seen since its original broadcast) and Password Plus fans...we're finally going to see the Buzzr debut of "The French Episode".

I think the Laugh Day marathon lineups are great. But as a college basketball fan, I wish they’d schedule them sometime besides the first weekend of the Tournament.

I always enjoy the French incident, if only for just how even a consummate pro like Tom Kennedy can have a bad day. Just tripping over himself every few seconds.
I don’t mean that in a bad way, for the record. :)

It's not Buzzr's fault that whoever created National Let's Laugh Day picked March 19th.

Let's Laugh Day has been around since the 70s, always on March 19.

Wonder if they just use the NBC edit, or the one from Tom Kennedy's collection that made its way through TVPMM and YouTube?

I realize that. But there are other laughter/comedy-related holidays—for instance, National Laughter Day on May 6 (https://www.thereisadayforthat.com/holidays/usa/national-laughter-day)—and for us college hoops fans, it would be nice for them to spread it out a little.
Oh well. I can’t fault them for counterprogramming.

May 6 is the Kentucky Oaks this year.

Do they honestly have a choice? I'm not sure that Fremantle has a copy of anything but the NBC edit (has the uncut version ever popped up on GSN, for instance?)

Nope. It was always presumably what was seen on air.
Honestly, I agree it will probably be that. But you never know...
It wouldn't be too groundbreaking if we did see the Kennedy copy on the 19th, anyway. The only differences are, a bit more blooper footage, including Betty guessing "Tinker" to Dick's "Ulysses S!" when Tom says they could not GRANT him control. It also explains the usage of "inadmissable" in Tom and Dick's dialogue. I think the master tape just goes to that segment without the explanation before it too, and Tom's explanation is seen later amongst the footage for some reason.

I didn't want to pull a thread necromancy move with the Betty White ABC Password thread from 2020, so I'll add my thought here.
Completely random epiphany, after hearing Dick's "lady sailors" comment after guessing "waves" and Tom quickly avoiding any further remarks on it, it hit me what Paul Williams' silenced clue for "Wave" is in Betty's ABC Password episode:
He gave a coined word, "Sailorette", in a rather suggestive way.
Well. I'm sure others that have seen Betty's episode figured that out already.
But hey, I can get a goodnight's sleep again :P

Plus, Tom said some Js and Cs as he pretended to punch the wall, which is dubbed out on the aired version.
