Game TV April 4 - Nice additions!
« on: March 03, 2023, 02:35:50 PM »
Oh, how sweet this lineup looks. Look at 1PM & 4:30 ;D

One of the programming staff mentioned some time ago that they were looking to acquire Wink's TTD, but it looks like they're even diving into more of the B&E library!
It doesn't say "S8" for TTD like it used to, but we'll see. BTB is enough to for me be excited about, frankly.

I'd like Barry too alongside it, but....oh what the hey why nitpick?  This is awesome news!!

Moreso if the Buzzr/GameTV deal is in play, as there's always a slight chance to get BTB on there. 

BTC '79?  Perhaps we'll finally get closure on the series finale...if you know, you know...
I'm a pacifist, and even I would like to see a little more action.

They've been airing BTC79 for a few months now and they've only shown the ones converted for Buzzr. In fact, they've never shown any classic Fremantle shows that hadn't already been converted for Buzzr. Probably cheaper that way.

I imagine Baldwin's MG at 2:30pm is an error because of 1) Alec's legal situation and 2) GameTV listing it as a half-hour show.

Break the Bank?  Wow - this is surprising news.  Hopefully they'll get to episodes that never aired on GSN.  Some of their leases have been quite small, but I can't wait to see this one!

I do remember that the last time somebody (GSN?) aired it, it stopped on the Monday of the final week.

I emailed GameTV and they replied saying it will be season 2 of Tic Tac Dough (1979-80) which means they'll eventually get to Thom McKee.

Not immediately obviously, even with a VPN, near as I can tell.

I'm playing the old "Let's pray some of our Canadian friends will record Break The Bank & post those episodes on a video-sharing site" game myself.

Not legally. There are a few paid IPTV services that include GameTV in their offerings, but I'm not going to risk linking to any here.
