Title: Million Dollar Password to Return in December
Post by: chad1m on November 13, 2008, 04:55:37 PM
From TV Week (http://\"http://www.tvweek.com/news/2008/11/philbinhosted_password_returns.php\"):

  The Regis Philbin-hosted game show will return to the Eye’s lineup Sunday, Dec. 21, at 8 p.m., the network announced Thursday. It replaces “The Amazing Race,” which will have concluded its current season by then.
William Shatner and Aisha Tyler are set to appear as guests on the first episode of the show’s second season. The “Password” revival debuted on CBS over the summer and did well enough in the ratings to convince the network to order six more episodes.

I believe Shatner/Tyler was the third filmed of the six, so it's not airing in production order. I'm sure Sodboy and I will let you know when to catch us when we find out.

Airing the Sunday after one side of the family's Christmas;  I'll need it.

I'd assume that Amazing Race ends the week before?

No, "Survivor: Gabon" ends the week before the second season premiere of "Million Dollar Password".

I'm actually thinking TAR ends 12/7, and the Survivor Finale would be on 12/14 (unless they move it from Sunday for the first time in a long while..).

Will we see Shatner grab Regis' chair and toss it across the set?

While neither the host, contestants or celebrities have chairs on set, I'm pretty sure the 2 answer displays used in the front game are not tied down.

Incidentally, I was at Borders yesterday and saw the Million Dollar Password board game with Regis on the cover.
