The tunes were repurposed for two other shows by different production companies: The Guinness Game, of course, but also Match Game used one of the themes as think music for a very short time (presumably somebody recognized it).

I love The Money Maze theme as well.  Oddly, this one is missing from TVPMM.  The one they have there is the theme to the pilot.  I believe the prize cue is correct thought.  Would love for this to surface.

I would love to hear a Concentration/Tattletales mashup.  It feels like one could seamlessly blend from one to the other.

Wow, also noticed the similarity - TheTT theme right before the bridge along with the Concentration head starts.

The game already moved at a fast clip with good players and they often had to pad for time after two games and two Double Plays. Why a rule change to speed the show up?

I think the bigger function of the rule change was to justify the show being on for so many years (i.e. look what we're doing NOW!!). But I also realized tonight (catching up on backlogged Concentration on the DVR) that speeding up one game of the two helps add the time necessary to play two pre-Double Play matching games to determine what prize the winner is playing for. I'd be willing to bet, if/when we get there, that the pre-Double Play matching game episodes have far fewer time filler segments (Money Game, $50 Double Play, etc.) than the ones Buzzr is showing now.
