Game show false memories
Jamey Greek:
I thought that USA's game shows also cane on on the weekends. I could have sworn that I saw a rerun of Hot Potato on Sunday afternoon followed by Pyramid. I remember wanting to watch Pyramid but I was at my grandmother's at the time and she had a "better idea" to take a nap. Boy was I upset!
PYLdude:
Wait, Scrabble reruns continued on WNBC? I sure as hell don’t remember that.
They still followed the network schedule on certain things; it aired the Scrabble/Scattergories hour at noon as per the schedule, and when Full House was picked up for reruns on NBC I know they carried it at 11 as per the schedule dictation.

Yep! Just verified this with NY Daily News. Up until "Joan Rivers" moved from WCBS to WNBC and took the 3pm slot in September 1990.

I am almost 100% sure that I saw an episode of Family Feud around '83-'84 where the families had played a triple round and their scores were tied at the end of the round, but neither had scored enough to win. Richard quickly signaled for another round and said that this would settle the tie. When the game board spun around, instead of another "TRIPLE" on each side of the board, it said "TIE". I don't know where the memory comes from (perhaps a dream?) but it seemed so real. Obviously, it makes no sense at all since they would just play another triple round.

I used to think that 5 Price Tags and Safe Crackers were played behind Door #1 on TPiR.
I also thought that I'd seen a $otC player with a negative score once.
