On 9/21-22, it will air Saturday 6-8pm and Sunday 8:30am. On 9/28-29, it will air Saturday 11am-12pm, Saturday 6-7pm, and Sunday 8:30am. Interesting that the distributor allows this approach, though I suppose any exposure is good exposure and the stacking of it has already shown dividends for GSN.

20-something years ago, WPXI in Pittsburgh scattered "Pictionary" around the Saturday/Sunday schedule wherever they had space. (There were many weekends where they didn't manage to air all five episodes.)

The America Says second-run syndicated episode will be the first-run one from the previous week starting September 23rd.

From 2013-2016, WPHL (MyTV) aired Celebrity Name Game as a preemption to its MyTV schedule on two nights each week, usually Tuesdays and Thursdays; later Thursdays and Fridays. The Friday episode woudl air at some point on the weekend.)

I'll add Exhibit B to this discussion: WTXF airing TNPIR 94 irregularly on Sunday afternoons to fill time.
