It's soft launched in Washington DC (I actually got an antenna for this- was thinking of getting one anyway, since they're not too expensive, but this sealed it)..

As for the Let's Make A Deal promo, is that Brian Cummings at the 19-second mark?

Yes that is Brian Cummings.

Someone on...I want to say Game Show Paradise?...said that Buzzr is what GSN was 15 years ago. Can't really say I disagree. :)


Except GSN 15 years ago had such gems as "Throut and Neck" and "Burt Luddin's Love Buffet" :p

BTW, we're only less than two hours from launch! I have to admit, this is pretty exciting.

More like 20. There was still some pretty questionable programming in 2000.

/They did get the CBS Joker's Wild a few months later though...

I kinda think the "Monster Buzz" block is a bit questionable.

Call this an unnecessary post, but it's now 8 PM EST. We now live in a world with BUZZR! Sorry, I'm excited too.

What I really want to know is if BUZZR is live in Phoenix yet.

Call the local station...we can't help you with that, because I'm pretty sure most of us don't live in Phoenix.

Just putting this on the record in case someone is looking this up in the archive a few years from now.  The very 1st show to ever air on BUZZR (outside of the soft launch) was the 1963 pilot of Let's Make A Deal.

Well, that's refreshing.  G-d knows how many times we've seen episode 1 of every series GSN ran (and would restart at episode 1 after removal).
