Quick heads-up, looks like Buzzr is "previewing" Combs Feud & MG75 in the 8PM ET slot this week.

That's their "Buzzr Bowl" promotion tying into the Super Bowl. Feud is the Bengals vs 49ers week from 1989 and Match Game is a week with Alex Karras on the panel.

I enjoyed the shift to Match Game 75, where they've found their groove as a silly party and no one's gotten tired of the format yet. I was especially amused at the fact that they played a whopping four questions over the course of the half hour (not even time for an Audience Match) and gave away a grand total of $0, as the game ended in a tie. If Mark Goodson saw this episode, I bet he would have thrown a fit.

Having been in the hospital for much of the last week (leg injury, recovering nicely), I can definitely say I prefer Buzzr to GSN at this point.  The latter pretty much is down to Harvey Feud and a bunch of originals that don't interest me.  I can imagine if Buzzr doesn't have a huge number of episodes available it could get pretty tiring to the hardcore audience (read:  us), but we're not really who they're trying to reach.

Has anyone determined whether the Tattletales episodes are from the 1980s run?  Otherwise, it looks like they're trying to push the '80s nostalgia buttons with the rest of the picks.

I don't have a buzzr station in my market, but you can date the Tattletales eps by the theme music.
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

And by the tote boards. They are brown in the '70s version and green in the '80s version.

They haven't run any past the first few months of the series from 1974.

That's funny...I always considered them red in the '70s version!

Looking at BUZZR's schedule for next Tuesday February 7th, I don't know if it's a one off or a permanent thing, but an episode of Family Feud from 1977 will air at 7 PM EST.  I hope it's permanent.  Since BUZZR is airing different eras of Feud it would be nice to see some regularly from the first or second season.

That was one of the random episodes that aired in a marathon.

For those interested, Match Game '75 started from the first episode of 1975 (Thursday of that week) and Family Feud with Ray Combs started from the CBS premiere.

Family Feud at 7 ET tonight finished off the Walk Of Fame week from '85, as opposed to the '77 episode previously listed. Maybe they're keeping the same block of episodes, and adding a similar number of Combs episodes to spread things out a bit.

Meanwhile, it appears that Password Plus is going from the beginning (I don't know how much of it Buzzr has carried) while Sale picked right up where the last new eps left off, which was Helaine's first championship defense.

Noticed also, skipping ahead a bit, that we're also going to be getting a Saturday morning Sale block. Wonder if those are going to be the eps that were airing Sunday nights.

They're repeats from earlier in the week, which is what all their weekend programming is except for the Sunday night block.

Nice new graphics package by the way.
