Can someone with access to the details tell me which two these are?  Buzzr has occasionally aired some shows that GSN has skipped, and I don't want to miss anything.

Fairly confident that #67_0002 is with guest Pearl Bailey, and #66_0027 with Wilt Chamberlain.

Chelsea Thrasher:
Even though the Wilt Chamberlain episode would seemingly make more sense, the '66 episode is actually the 10/17/66 show with guest Lucille Ball. One of the earlier segments has a jazz musician named Rufus Harley who brought bagpipes into jazz and had put out a couple of albums. Buzzr's rerun the show before (last February).

(I hate the way the CBS-era panel shows are numbered in their scheduling system. Essentially just the episodes they have, taped in that year, numbered sequentially. Except for when they DO skip a number.)

67_002 should be the Pearl Bailey episode, however.

Yeah, for that to have been the Wilt Chamberlain episode would have been pretty remarkable, since that's one of the ones that's never been replayed.

Fortunately I've not needed to refer to their numbering system much because yeah, that would drive me up a wall.

Of course, that numbering tells me that they must not possess the episode that aired January 2, 1967, which is another one we've never gotten.

/Seriously, I'm into this stuff.

The Super Passwords airing on Feb. 11 are Apr. 25-29, 1988, with Susan Ruttan and Scoey Mitchell.

They're skipping over #919, 4/27/88, almost certainly because one of the passwords that day was "Oriental".

Interesting, because there was a January 1986 episode with Orson Bean that they aired this week - the password was "Chinese," and "Oriental" was given as a clue. There weren't any dated jokes surrounding the clue, so maybe it passed muster.
