I would understand were they Body Language and Double Dare or Treasure Hunt and The $20,000 Pyramid but honestly, that's a little excessive and over the top. Brandon is right. Ever since Fremantle started monetizing videos I imagine they've shown more leeway but I do know one channel got absolutely potatoed this week.

Fair enough. Point taken.

Outrage is an extreme reaction, but it's all a matter of perspective. I just now double-checked that Super Password would be completely off the schedule by the end of the month -- for a while a year or so ago, it felt like every time I turned on Buzzr, I'd see an episode of Super Password. So that show I personally won't miss.

Recently, Buzzr had been quietly airing "new" episodes of Press Your Luck on the weekends, which I had been enjoying. I didn't have GSN during its run there, so I haven't seen these later episodes since the USA Network days. I like seeing them intact and crystal clear, and I have no real interest in scouring YouTube for the VHS transfers and GSN'ed videos that have been uploaded.

I'm a little bummed that the show is taking a break, but this isn't the first time Buzzr has taken Press Your Luck off the schedule entirely, and I hope it'll be back soon enough.

Why the outrage? It's two shows that have aired more than enough times over the years, and have plenty of episodes on Youtube. I think it's okay to give them a bit of a break.

With all the reruns, I'd argue PYL could use an even longer break given it never really left the air since 1986.

To make room, Buzzr is dropping PYL, Super Password, Temptation, and 1 hour of Classic Concentration. Split Second and Let's Make a Deal run one hour earlier and $ale of the Century takes the 2pm slot before Price. They all run 7 days a week going forward.

On the first two, I say BOOOOO!!!!!

Cordially,

Randy West noted in his fb group that 100k is not renewed nor cancelled. Another poster replied no new shows were taped this year. Given Strahans nfl gig, I doubt we see anything new til at least mid 2025

I'm surprised they're not running these episodes in prime time. They will attract viewers. But I guess we should be thankful that Buzzr is airing these at all.

I hadn't thought about that, but it's a very good point. I'd definitely be tuning in for 8pm Price.

Because there have been some crossed wires between the Buzzr and Pluto announcements, I checked Buzzr's schedule for Tuesday, May 28 (it is so weird to finally see Barker Price on there), and Buzzr will be starting at the beginning of season 13 with episode 5391D (originally aired September 10, 1983) at 3:00 p.m. Eastern/12:00 noon Pacific. 5392D airs at 4:00 p.m. Eastern/1:00 p.m. Pacific, and so on for those two hours every weekday. As is Buzzr tradition, the weekend airings simply repeat episodes that aired during the preceding weekdays.

Note that the new-to-Pluto episodes will be airing at 2:00 p.m. Eastern/11:00 a.m. Pacific and 3:00 p.m. Eastern/12:00 noon Pacific, creating overlap. Of course, if you know how to access the Pluto channel, then you've probably already seen the episodes that are airing on Buzzr.
