Given the International Women's Day angle and Arlene Francis subbing, I'm starting to wonder if a lot of these episodes airing beforehand fit that theme. I guess we'll see when the full schedule comes out.
/ I'm getting that at least one of those MG's has Betty or Brett hosting a question and that two of those TTTT episodes are when Kitty and Peggy each hosted half a show because they knew a subject.

Somehow, parsing links from the Google carcass that once was DejaNews just doesn't work here. The address is below, if that doesn't work just copy and paste.

Reading through that only makes me not miss 1997 by any means.
/ That lineup, save TPiR and Feud, would make a great Sony-owned reaction to Buzzr.
// Yes, Ruckus included.

Since it's been confirmed by Buzzr that most of the episodes that day are related to Int'l Women's Day, I will play a hunch and say one (Dawson) episode will likely be the episode where Richard was a bit laryngitical and had producer Cathy Hughart host about half the show. IIRC, she did a decent job as she did some of the runthroughs before taping. I wouldn't be surprised if a few Celebrity Feuds from the Dawson and Combs years show up with the Men v. Women teams playing.
Betty White.hosted a week of Password in the 70's, (however those eps are, sadly, long gone) did she host any of the other incarnations for a day or week?
SRIV94:
Shows are released.
The 9AM TTTT and 9:30 WML are continuations of their current run (IOW, nothing new).
The 10AM and 10:30 BL's are the 12/27-28/84 eps with Lucy, Isabel Sanford, Robert Morse and Richard Simmons. The other two BL's (1PM and 1:30) are Lucy and Charles Nelson Reilly (9/10 and 9/13/84).
The 11AM MGPM is actually a rerun from two nights earlier. The 11:30 MG is labeled as from 1980, but the guide says ep 352 (which actually was the second show of the 1981-82 season).
The 12N TTTT is from the current run but had been skipped (ep 1572--second show of the 1973-74 season). The 12:30 WML was taped in 1970 (ep 733).
The P+ eps are all from the week with Carol Burnett, Vicki Lawrence, Joanna Gleason and McLean Stevenson (in character and as themselves)--week of 3/10-14/80. The Thursday and Friday eps are airing first, the Monday and Tuesday eps later.
The SP eps are from 11/10-11/88 (Lucy, Carol Channing, Betty White and Dick Martin).
The 4PM TTTT is a 1980 ep (number 19). The 4:30 WML is from 1970-71 (ep 922).
The FF eps are all from 1994 (half hour versions--104 is first, then 96, 97 and 98).
As confirmed earlier, the TPIR is from 1961 with Arlene subbing for Uncle Bill. IGAS is from 1960. WML from 1953 (Eleanor Roosevelt).
And that should do it.
In unrelated news to this, CC continues to at least the week before Xmas 1987 (151 on 3/15, OAD supposedly 12/18/87). TATTLETALES goes back in time from 252 to 202 on 3/12.
Sodboy13:
Perhaps Buzzr was tipping its hand a little on this lineup of shows with its tweet from a few days ago.

Hey, that was me that posted that! :) I incorrectly stated that the new schedule would begin on Monday the 13th - proved to be wrong, as at the stroke of midnight, when October 10 turned into 11, most of the G-T shows hibernated for a long winter's nap.
