Some interesting shows in this one!

A quick google search reveals He Said She Said aired in 2000 for Game of the Week and a mini-marathon in 1997.
Aside from those, was this ever on the regular schedule?

He Said She Said never had a berth on the regular schedule IIRC.

I remember it airing on one of the last Sunday Nights in Black & White, too, sometime in spring '01. Only time I've ever seen it. I don't even remember it well enough to say whether I liked it.

You're correct. GSN has only aired about 8-10 episodes of the show - a couple on "Game of the Week", and the others on a marathon of the show in the late '90s. That marathon featured episodes with Sally Field (likely the one they're re-airing in this marathon) and a whole week with Dick Clark on the panel.
I don't even remember it well enough to say whether I liked it.
I don't really care for it. It was sort of a fore-runner of "Tattletales", and I much prefer "Tattletales" to this.
-
GSN has aired an Oscars marathon before and have aired two different He Said She Said episodes with Sally Field. It'd be good to keep for sake of rarity, but that's one boring show. It'd also been Game of the Week more than once.
The whole marathon sounds great though!

It also aired in 2003, when GSN threw us a bone for the change back to standard time (the other part of that hour was a 1973 TTTT with William Hanna [as in Hanna-Barbera] as a central character).
Doug -- and the countdown to 1800 continues (but won't anymore after this message go into the books)

Coolness! My only complaint is this: Some quick research leads me to believe that Johnny Carson only made one appearance on Password, which means they're airing that show two nights in a row--in the same time slot. I hope I'm wrong.
As I think about it, every host that I can remember post-Carson has appeared on a game show.
Billy Crystal - record-holder on Pyramid
David Letterman - also on 20KP,P+
Whoopi Goldberg - H2
Steve Martin - (don't know about GSN rights or even existence of the complete episode) The Dating Game
-
Steve Martin - (don't know about GSN rights or even existence of the complete episode) The Dating Game
It exists and GSN has aired it before (with Richard Dawson in the first segment.)

There was actually a period of five years between Carson's last hosting gig and Crystal's first, but since Billy started in 1990 (for the 1989 films), your list is complete with the exception of last year's host Chris Rock, who may have broken the streak.

Announcer to TV audience: The password is "black."
Chris Rock: n(bleep)

Has Jon Stewart been on one? (He'll be doing this year's Oscarcast.)
Folks, you've just read or ignored my 1800th post. Vote now.

I remember watching He Said, She Said when GSN aired it in 2003. I was disappointed that the theme wasn't the same verion used for Who's Who in WML. Good show other than that.

Sounded like it came out of the same music bed to me (I'd say the "Who's Who" theme started at the beginning of the piece, while the HSSS theme started at a later point).
Count me among those that thought TT was better, though (once they went to the all-quickie format).

Grazi. I forgot all about that (as if that wasn't obvious). :)

I know that there are a few of us here who actually prefer the first format of "Tattletales" to the "all-quickie" format. For me it just adds a bit more variety - even if the game was sometimes out of reach by the last question.

I know. I just found the "one or two-word phrase" format to be akin to watching paint dry. YMMV, that's why there's vanilla and that's why there's chocolate.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but in the first format, if the wrong person buzzed in after hearing the phrase, they could justify it all they want but still got nothing, yes?

And an ep. of Win Ben Stein's Money, as well.

Mr. Stewart did very well on Celebrity Jeopardy!, too.

That's correct. The only person that could score would be the one who's spouse buzzed in. Most of the time that occured, but there were some instances where the wrong person buzzed...and usually the audience's reaction let them know they were the wrong person.
There were also a couple of times where the right person buzzed - but gave the wrong story. Those scored nothing as well.

I thought I had seen that, but I wasn't sure. It just confirms further in my mind that having the wrong person buzz in and tell a story to try to justify it would be nothing more than a time-waster (I could live with the right person buzzing in but telling the wrong story). And perhaps producers sensed that, leading towards the all-quickie format.

Count me among the Wrong And Proud, then. Tattletales with the "pot div right answers" scoring system was little more than Celebrity Newlywed Game. They already ran TNG how many times a day? It was nice to see what I thought was a clever game mechanic used, wasted stories or not.
-
Seconded on this end...the first format was a nice deviation from what otherwise was indeed "Celebrity Newlywed Game".
I'm surprised Barris didn't sue--I seem to recall reading they prevented Perfect Match from having a second season.
