Title: PYL on GSN ?
Post by: ITSBRY on November 30, 2003, 01:30:34 PM

Has GSN acquired rights to more than the original group of episodes that it began airing in 2001?

I noticed today that the episode had a 1985 copyright and whammy cartoons that I didn't recall seeing on GSN-aired episodes.  I thought the only episodes GSN had acquired were from 1984.

Thanks,

Yep, they started airing them during the Summer Vertivision Morning Blocks.

Awesome...I wasn't aware of this!!  Do we know how many additional episodes they acquired?

 At least 118(they aired 108 unseen-on-GSN episodes during the PYL Wednesday mornings from June-October, plus 10 more unseen episodes over the past five weekends)

It's been rumoured that there's 150 episodes in this package, which would give GSN 350 total.

They've now aired everything from Feb. 1984 to May 1985.
