March 7 to 14 is up on the schedule page...

* Now You See It is still fresh.
* The 1pm hour of Classic Concentration continues onward, and hits the start of 1990.
* Not sure when, but Ludden Password Plus loops back to November 1979.

1.  Last fresh NYSI is 3/18 (#165), cycles back to 88 on 3/21.
2.  Last fresh CC is 3/17 (12N ET, #680), cycles back to 618 at 12:30 ET.
3.  P+ loops back tomorrow.  The Sunday run we get the first day of Betty White/Dick Martin (the week that would culminate with France/French) at 8PM ET on 3/13, then we loop back to 480 (first Kennedy civilian ep).  However, France/French will air on 3/19 as part of Buzzr's "Let's Laugh Day" short marathon (also, the SP where Bert first breaks the Magic Toaster will air immediately following).

Brilliant detective work! Keep it up!

So did we completely miss it?  Doesn't appear any ep was skipped, and they're full-tilt into the celebrity run now with Didi Conn and John Schuck.

No skips, but no Stephen either.

I was wrong about my guess as to when Stephen would appear so it's all good. 

As I said someone apparently remembered Stephen being told he would play with a celebrity partner if he lost the Gauntlet. 
I'm a pacifist, and even I would like to see a little more action.

I know I saw Stephen's return to the Gauntlet while at home on Christmas break (or an off chance we had a snow day or two when it aired). What is the airdate we are up to now?  We gotta be getting close.

Day after December 5th (and I'm wording it that way since at the end of 12/5, Tom never said anything about being preempted for December Magazine, so I don't know if today was Thursday 12/6 or Friday 12/7). Celebs are Didi Conn and John Schuck.

It was 12/7. Magazine aired every first Thursday throughout Whew's run, confirmed by contemporary TV Guides.

The Schuck/Conn week started on a Wednesday and the Mandan/Young week will end on a Friday, normalizing the show to a M-F week for each pair of celebs?

New to BUZZR Concentrations start on March 28 with #1315, skipping 3 episodes since the last fresh show.

If Stephen Matthews' return to Whew! happened during Christmastime 1979, his show should air in the next two weeks; there are no skipped episodes coming up and today's show is from Monday 12/17/79, which sounds like a good time to start a winter break from school.

Actually it starts at #1312, with no skips.

Unless the schedule got changed near the dead of night, my old eyes must be playing tricks on me.  That is correct.

Complete speculation on my part, but I'd be willing to bet that Stephen shows up in the next segment following a contestant losing their fifth and final Gauntlet, so as not to "interrupt" someone else's run. And considering that tomorrow's show starts with current champion Leonard Bernstein going into his fifth match, if my theory is right, we ought to be seeing Stephen either tomorrow in Act 4, or at the top of episode 163 (assuming Leonard wins the match and ends up joining Alan Emrich and Raymond Frear as a five-time turkey).

Or after someone wins the Gauntlet.
