Take for instance Packard Bell, which I associate with computers.

I associate it with crap. But I think we repeat ourselves. :)

Well, I wasn't gonna go there but now that you mention it...:)

(First internet-capable PC I had was a PB 486 running Windows 3.1 and a 14.4 modem...
Our first was also a PB "special" that got purchased at Sam's Club.  Had a 25mhz processor, 4MB of Ram, a fancy brand-spanking new 1x CD-ROM drive, and a color monitor!

Ah, NetZero. How I wondered if you still existed.   :-)

Buzzr showed the premiere episode of MG73 tonight, and a '74 episode that I think is from Charles' debut week, since he's not in his usual seat. Are these new in the rotation?

Not quite. Charles was on the 3rd week of the run in July 1973.  That was also Brett's first week on the panel.

The premiere aired during Lost and Found week and the 74 episode aired during the 4th of July marathon.

Buzzr's site says two 1971 eps will air.

And it's the two episodes left off when Buzzr ran the two weeks from the 1970-71 season when Mark Goodson sat on the panel.

Buzzr's schedule has now been posted for most of June.  Of special note (in addition to the June 1 festivities), the following TTTT (Collyer) marathon is slated for Sunday June 12, from noon to midnight. It includes an airing of the pilot. 

Would someone please note which of these episodes are new to Buzzr?  I'm guessing they are the episodes airing from 8p-midnight.

The 5 episode block beginning with the pilot are new to BUZZR for sure.  The first two episodes of the marathon might be new as well.  I don't remember BUZZR airing shows from that early in 1961.  I think everything outside of those 5, possibly 7,  have aired on BUZZR before.

Looking at the lineup, there could be a daytime episode in there given dates of 6/18/62, 11/19/62, and 11/8/65 (emphasis on "could").

The first two episodes of the marathon might be new as well. I don't remember BUZZR airing shows from that early in 1961.
They've definitely aired at least the 1/2/61 show.

The first episode aired did air during the Mark Goodson birthday tribute a few months back (with the wedding dress subject).  Think only the 2nd 1971 episode was new to Buzzr.

The one thing I noticed in watching those episodes is how little the Ed Sullivan Theater's orchestra section changed over the years. If I didn't know any better I could've swore I was watching a Late Show episode from Letterman's time. (Well, I'm exaggerating quite a bit, but it was certainly a familiar sight. :))

What, if anything, caused the show and WML? to pack up and move to 30 Rock? Did they get a better offer from NBC on studio space or something? (Or has that already been asked and answered?)

Chuckles abound with this "Almost At Restraining Order Level" level of posts to BUZZR's Facebook page...



It took Jermaine less than nine hours to answer his own question and then post that answer to himself.
