On Tuesday, September 16, Game Show Network will pre-empt the Family Feud vertivision block and will run the All-Star Family Feud Special with the cast of \"Three's Company\" followed by episodes of Hollywood Squares with John Ritter on the panel. Each show will be preceded by a tribute message.

9am Family Feud Eps. N-01 SC04768-1
10am Hollywood Squares Eps. 4001 GS12990-1
10:30am Hollywood Squares Eps. 4003 GS12990-3
11am Hollywood Squares Eps. 4004 GS30001-1
11:30am The Dating Game Eps. 67-149 GS01260-1



I was hoping they would dig up his Dating Game ep.

Probably a good idea to avoid running that Get Rich Quick! pilot.

Tuesday, huh?  Would this be running up against an 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter tribute?

It's Tuesday *morning,* where the mini-marathon of \"Feud\" normally airs.

How many of the \"Whoopi\" H2's did John appear on? It seems that he was on the 2002-03 season of H2 more than that version.

 I remember that he was on a couple of times during the 01-02 season, right after they went to the \"Double or Nothing\" bonus round.

Brandon B., was he on at all during the College Tourney?

Now celebrating his 21st season on GSF!

 Per Steve-the-B, they did.  It's the grand finale at 11:30.

Was this All Star Feud from the '70s? I seem to remember them running one like that on the Friday night vertivision blocks last fall.

As a matter of fact, the episode in question was the VERY FIRST 'All-Star FF' they did on May 8, 1978.

John Ritter will be missed!

Cordially,

With Dawson's opening remark, \"I'm happy to say that this is one special where you will *not* hear 'You Light Up My Life.'\"

Those of us who lived through that period of time know where he's coming from.

Yes, that song was No. 1 on the Hot 100  for 10 weeks leading up to Christmas 1977.  At that time it tied the record for longest run at No. 1 - it has since been broken.

During the first couple of \"Feud\" specials they had just the stars of ABC shows of the time.  I guess they ran out pretty quickly, because soon stars of CBS and NBC shows started appearing.
