Super Password will be new again for two weeks starting February 29th.  They should pick up from where they left off in the tournament.

Wait, they didn't finish it? I was under the impression that they showed the whole thing

Nope they cut off at the last semi-final match I believe.

And next week, you'll see the Grand Finals of the Super Password tournament and with the additional 20 episodes coming up, it's getting close to where GSN stopped at in September 1999 when it preceded Extreme Gong.

Okay, noticing something in tonight's Sale episodes. I noted an error in the feed when the first episode when it aired the first time...looks like they kept it in.

Second, they also appear to have skipped an episode...did they do that when these eps first aired? Don't seem to remember them doing so.

(One more thing: wasn't one half of this week's carryover champion team on Beat the Clock on Press Your Luck? Seem to remember seeing Suanne being on during the most recent Casino block of PYL eps.)

Buzzr only skips one episode; episode 8, originally aired Jan. 16, 1985.

You are indeed correct! The last name's different, but it's definitely her.

1) muchas  gracias, sir.

2) nice to know my eyes weren't playing tricks on me. :)

According to Buzzr's online schedule. Next Monday March 7th, Card Sharks will be new for the next two weeks.  This now makes LMAD the only show on the schedule to have not been refreshed yet.

Did LMAD start with a larger initial stockpile of episodes? I feel like I've seen fewer repeats of it than some other shows.

That, plus they don't seem to run it as often by comparison (i.e. it doesn't get too much play outside of weeknights and Sunday morning).

I had to go to my in-car computer twice tonight to make sure that I was looking for the correct person, and you have the ability to remember people appearing on different game shows?

I need you as a ridealong.

I recognize faces fairly well...so chances are if I've seen you before, I'll likely recognize you. Even if it was only from watching TV.

Don't know how much help I'd be to ya though.  ;)

Zap2It shows a slightly altered schedule for Buzzr beginning on Tuesday March 22.  From 8-10pm, it lists an episode each of LMAD, He Said She Said, Password Plus and Super Password.  Only Wednesday 3/23, the same block pre-empts the afternoon black-and-white shows, except that Beat the Clock airs in place of the LMAD airing.  And at 8pm that night, Tattle Tales airs.  The schedule stops there, for now.  I'm guessing this has something to do with their March Madness event.

Buzzr is airing episodes of To Tell the Truth that are new to the network this week.

Buzzr has skipped about as many episodes of TTTT as they've aired! I do hope they eventually edit and air all those cigarette-sponsored TTTT episodes. They have edited out the occasional cigarette ad on episodes that they do air.
