Plus, you're going to rerun episodes which are only 13 weeks old?

Granted, it's five years later, but didn't NBC pull that trick when SCRABBLE93 debuted (showing reruns like six or seven weeks in)?

They sure did. So did its companion program--Scattergories. There were two weeks of repeats from late March to early April. These repeated telecasts must've been a late decision as on the Scattergories show that played on April 15th, host Dick Clark mentioned that it was April Fools' Day. The last three weeks of those two series were repeats as well. Family Secrets also played reruns toward the end and I believe Caesar's Challenge was presenting encore telecasts early into its brief run.
