4:30 -Family Feud '03 #160
5PM - Family Feud '03 - #165

According to their FB page, 60 episodes from Price's premiere season in 1972 will be streaming wherever the Barker Era channel can be watched. New episodes will air every weeknight starting at 8p ET from Mon., Nov. 27 to Sun., Jan. 7.

I can already hear the complaints now.  WHY 1972?  WHERE'S THE ROD RODDY EPISODES? WHAT ABOUT DENNIS JAMES?  WHY ONLY 60 EPS???

The fur episodes *will* be skipped.

As unhappy as that may make some folks, it makes sense--it would be in pretty poor taste to "celebrate Bob's legacy" and then completely undermine his animal rights activism.

That being said, part of me hopes that some fur episodes could quietly enter the rotation later on down the road, possibly even with a disclaimer at the beginning.

For those keeping tabs on weekends, $ale will be given a breath of fresh episodes from the syndicated run starting 12/2. It looks like the airing order is off though, with #213 airing before #212 and Sunday shows 215 before 214.

On that note, I just checked my email and discovered that three of my YouTube uploads have been blocked by Fremantle (spoiler-tagged for reasons I'll get to in a bit):
* "The New Price Is Right (October 19, 1972)" (content used: "TPIR_EP0074_SR1972_YR1972_BB.mp4")
* "The New Price Is Right (January 25, 1973)" (content used: "TPIR_EP0214_SR1973_YR1973_BB.mp4")
* "The New Price Is Right (January 29, 1973)" (content used: "TPIR_EP0221_SR1973_YR1973_BB.mp4")


These blocks line up with Fremantle's blocks of Seasons 11-14 uploads prior to new batches debuting on The Barker Era, so it's a good bet we'll be seeing #0074D, #0214D, and #0221D in this special programming. (I wasn't 100% sure whether to spoiler-tag this or not, but decided to err on the side of caution for those who'd prefer to not know what to expect.)

Saw a promo on Buzzr that there will be "8 Days of Bob Barker" starting December 4, including TPIR. Well well well . . .

The exact quote from the promo (https://twitter.com/BUZZRtv/status/1728156614257979478) is "Buzzr honors Bob Barker over eight days. With lots of Bob, including The Price Is Right: A Tribute to Bob Barker." I.e., the hour-long clip show special that aired shortly after his death.

There are one or two very brief TPIR clips in the promo that appear to come from episodes that have aired on Pluto TV's Barker Era channel, but that may simply be a case of cross-pollination within Fremantle's promotions department.

So far, only a handful of Family Feud episodes. They're airing one of those TPIR vs. Y&R weeks from the early 90s.

The weekend of 12/16 looks like a hodgepodge during the day. Black and white classics including Make the Connection, TTTT, and even The Match Game are scheduled along with episodes 21-25 of Body Language. No idea if it's a stunt or a new regular thing.

I was curious what Buzzr would be airing during the Barker tribute, so I looked to see what I could find so far. I'm going by the source code from the "schedule_by_date" pages, and I'm confused by some of what I'm seeing.

December 4

10:30 a.m. Eastern / 7:30 a.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1993; presumably The Price Is Right vs. The Young and the Restless)
11:00 a.m. Eastern / 8:00 a.m. Pacific - Tattletales (1975; Bob and Dorothy Jo compete)
11:30 a.m. Eastern / 8:30 a.m. Pacific - Tattletales (1975; Bob and Dorothy Jo compete)

12:30 p.m. Eastern / 9:30 a.m. Pacific - Match Game 75 (Barker on the panel)

December 9
10:30 a.m. Eastern / 7:30 a.m. Pacific - To Tell the Truth (1991; I'm confused -- this isn't what normally airs in this slot, but Barker never did To Tell the Truth, right?)
11:00 a.m. Eastern / 8:00 a.m. Pacific - Match Game 75 (Barker on the panel)
11:30 a.m. Eastern / 8:30 a.m. Pacific - Match Game 75 (Barker on the panel, but Buzzr lists the exact same episode number as the prior half hour)
12:00 p.m. Eastern / 9:00 a.m. Pacific - Match Game 75 (the episode after Barker was on the panel?)
12:30 p.m. Eastern / 9:30 a.m. Pacific - Match Game PM (1978; Barker on the panel)

Title: Re: BUZZR Q4 2023
Post by: Chelsea Thrasher on November 29, 2023, 03:24:13 AM
Buzzr's listings show episode 149 for Truth '90. Marshall Akers' site shows the following three subjects during that episode, which has a panel of Orson Bean, Dana Hill, David Niven Jr., and Kitty Carlisle

Harold Wilkins - Game show fan and date for Kitty Carlisle
Eddie Benales - Former gang member, author: "From Gangs To Grace"
Mark Wayland - Head bump doctor/Owner of traffic school

I have to assume Barker or Price may have some tangential connection to the first subject (at least unless Barker was in a gang, had a concussion, or needed to clear a parking ticket).  Either that or Buzzr just really needed to fill a 30 minute hole that day and went with Truth (tangent about this below the line)

And as far as I know Barker never did a walk-on (and NBC probably wouldn't be in a massive hurry to promote the star of their competitor's top daytime game)
=======
(tangent: honestly I am shocked that they've never put the 1980, 1990, or 2000 reboots on the regular schedule - the 1990 version in particular feels like it'd be a great daily fixture for the channel, or 2000 for something more "contemporary", meanwhile 1980 has a really fascinating list of guests)

I haven't been catching many of the episodes -- with nothing especially revelatory, I forgot it was going on (plus I'm usually asleep during the 7:00 and 8:00 a.m. Pacific hours). But even though I had forgotten about the tribute, my downstairs neighbor woke me up at 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday, so I turned on Buzzr. I was very confused why Dawson Feud had been replaced by a Combs episode featuring two teams of comedians -- it wasn't until the following TPIR vs. Y&R episode that I realized it was because one of the surveys had "Bob Barker" as a number one answer.

Might as well finish the list for the sake of completion. December 10 only features episodes that aired during prior days. It looks like we get a couple of new-to-Buzzr episodes on December 12.

December 10
10:30 a.m. Eastern / 7:30 a.m. Pacific - The Price Is Right: A Tribute to Bob Barker
11:30 a.m. Eastern / 8:30 a.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1993; TPIR vs. Y&R)
12:00 p.m. Eastern / 9:00 a.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1993; TPIR vs. Y&R)
12:30 p.m. Eastern / 9:30 a.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1993; TPIR vs. Y&R)
1:00 p.m. Eastern / 10:00 a.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1993; TPIR vs. Y&R)
1:30 p.m. Eastern / 10:30 a.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1993; TPIR vs. Y&R)

December 11
10:00 a.m. Eastern / 7:00 a.m. Pacific - Tattletales (1975; Bob and Dorothy Jo compete)
10:30 a.m. Eastern / 7:30 a.m. Pacific - Match Game 77 (Barker on the panel)

December 12
10:00 a.m. Eastern / 7:00 a.m. Pacific - To Tell the Truth (1991; the same "game show fan" episode from before)
10:30 a.m. Eastern / 7:30 a.m. Pacific - I've Got a Secret (1972; Barker is the special guest)

1:30 p.m. Eastern / 10:30 a.m. Pacific - Tattletales (1976; the episode number doesn't align with the wiki on fandom.com for a Barker week)
2:00 p.m. Eastern / 11:00 a.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1982; an ordinary episode in which presumably "Bob Barker" will be a correct answer)
2:30 p.m. Eastern / 11:30 a.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1976; an ordinary episode in which "Bob Barker" is a correct answer)
3:00 p.m. Eastern / 12:00 p.m. Pacific - Family Feud (1978; the episode I cross-referenced this with didn't have Barker in a survey)

The 70s Feud episodes, as utterly tangential as their inclusion here comes off, have actually wound up being my favorite part of this stunt. Buzzr has, for whatever reason(s), almost entirely avoided any Feud produced before 1980 for as long as the network has been around, which is a shame as for me it's when the show was at it's most enjoyable and most relaxed. There's a leisureliness to the pacing of the 200 point shows that's just delightful, and Dawson's temperament is far more relaxed and jovial in the first half of the run.

I agree with that.  The last half of the run you could tell his attitude was different, and for fans like us who know the backstory, it's not as much fun to watch.

It's a joy watching those initial episodes before that started.  I know that GSN ran all of the '76 episodes decades ago but I don't think I saw all of them.  I'm not sure exactly when it started.  My recollection is that by Christmas he was kissing some of the female contestants, but it didn't become a habit until a little later, IIRC.

ISTR that Dawson was probably getting complaints early on about picking and choosing who he wanted to kiss (and the comment he made on air about getting aroused), so his answer was to kiss virtually every female (with consent, of course). Times are not that different...

Anyone have any idea why the 6/3/63 episode of To Tell the Truth was included in Betty White Christmas today? Betty wasn't in the episode.

Betty was in a couple of Garry Moore TTTT eps that aired on 12/17. She sat next to hubby Allen Ludden. I had never seen these eps before.

Cool!  Did you get a sense they were from earlier in the run?  The mod set, maybe?  I think historically, GSN didn't run too many of those earlier episodes, much like they rarely ran the first season of Bruner and WML?

NOT the mod set, the one after. So it was from 1974 and after.

Buzzr has aired this week of shows in the past. This isn't the episode that BillCullen1 saw specifically, but probably from that same week. April of 74. I remember catching it the first time around and being delighted that they had guested together on the panel. It's felt like Buzzr's been quietly blazing through this mid-era run of Moore TTTT and I don't know how much of that GSN has previously rerun, but there's been some gems in there when I've caught it and I need to watch it more.

A mistake has aired on Buzzr. During "This week in Game Show History" we hear the announcer say that in 1956 To Tell The Truth debuts with host John Charles Daly. OOPS

Hah! I'll never forget the one that recalled how Allen Ludden adjourned The Liar's Club for the last time in 1989.
Whoever's approving these isn't at the right level of "fan" ;D
(Then again, at least these little bits are easy to make disappear and forgotten.)

Ed dug himself pretty damn deep.
Sidenote : When they showed Johnny, there wasn't much of a audience

If I'm imagining how that is staged, the stage-left part of the audience would not get to see much. The charades would be partially from the rear at best, and likely most of the action would be obscured by the oversized projection display. The middle and stage-right sections of 33 were probably used which still gives for a sizable enough audience and just left those seats adjacent to Johnny's podium empty. (That said, a pickup shot with some audience members filling the seats wouldn't be too much to ask.)

ETA -- Those seats were filled for the series finale. 🤷‍♂️
