« on: December 18, 2007, 05:45:54 PM »
Zap2it only has the weekday morning/afternoon schedule at this point, but its shaping up very nicely.  Mostly the same, but a few big additions:

ALL TIMES EASTERN
9AM Newlywed Game
9:30 Love Connection
10AM Let's Make a Deal
10:30 Press Your Luck
11AM WHEEL OF FORTUNE
11:30 TIC TAC DOUGH
12PM Super Password
12:30 Family Feud (Combs)
1PM Match Game
1:30 Card Sharks
2PM Jeopardy
2:30 Password Plus
3PM Family Feud (Dawson)
3:30 To Tell the Truth
4PM That's the Question
4:30 Family Feud (Karn)
5PM Family Feud (Karn)
5:30 Chain Reaction
6PM Lingo
6:30 Whammy

Also the weekend overnight schedule a little different:

Saturday:

12AM Millionaire
1AM Twenty-One
2AM Body Language
2:30 Beat the Clock (Hall)


Sunday:

12AM Super Password
12:30 Super Password
1AM Double Dare
1:30 Double Dare
2AM Body Language
2:30 Beat the Clock (Hall)

Would that make it Quadruple Dare?  *ducks*

But seriously, that is one sweet schedule.

Holy crap Wheel and Tic Tac are back. Still too much Karn Feud, though.

It's nice to see they're finally going back into the Barry-Enright library.  Hopefully there'll be more to come eventually!

Just one thought: All we mostly know for sure regarding post-7 PM is that WWTBAM will probably air at 8, the Poker Shows will air Mondays, and WML/IGAS air at 3 AM.  The rest of weekdays are still up in the air.  For all we know they're replacing the Random 2 AM Poker Show Rerun with TJW and Bullseye. (24 hours ago I would have said no way in hell.  But....TTD man.

(And while they're at it, since Weakest Link is expiring, just go on right ahead and stick Match Game PM and $100,000 Pyramid there in that vacant 7 PM hour. Thanks.)

Let's not get excited just yet; they never said it wasn't Wayne's TTD. ;)

Seriously though, I'm very excited to see WOF and TTD come back. When was the last time TTD was on the regular schedule, 2000?

They could show it once at 3:30AM on a Sunday night/Monday morning and it would *still* be too much. :)

Surprising that Tic Tac is back without Joker.

And I would like to start two Vegas-esque items:

ODDS WOF IS THE OFT-REPEATED SEASON (isn't it 88-89?):  3:1
OVER/UNDER ON HOW MANY REPEATS:  6

Probably in the minority here but I would have liked to see 'Pyramid' back instead of TTD.

3PM to 6PM is the same. I wonder if the promotion it has been receiving has been paying off.

I'll take that bet.  GSN's leases for seasons of Sony-leased shows were always for 4 years.  GSN started rerunning it in 2001, meaning a lease expiry of 2005.   *My* money, if they've only leased one season, is for 1996-97.  Of the 11 episodes of Wheel seen on GSN this year, 3 were from it. Of course, I'm not even entirely sure that they've only leased 1 year this time.

I just hope they're leasing that one season of Jeopardy! again.  Adam Kleist may not have recorded all of the episodes yet.

Here's a question for the old timers.

When did we STOP in the TTD run the last time it was regularly on the schedule? Something tells me late Caldwell...? It would be interesting to start from the beginning if those eps exist.

And this is just about the best schedule that GSN has ever had, I think. Except for the absence of Pyramid, but I don't mind if it means seeing less of the same wretched seasons over and over.

GSN took off TTD at the end of August, 2001. At the time, they were around February 1986 or so.

I'm not prepared to say this is the best schedule ever, at least in my opinion - there are a few key shows missing (TPiR, TJW, a couple of the Pyramids), and a bit too much of the Flannel Feud and 2nd-rate originals *cough*Chain Reaction*cough* for my taste, but it's certainly better than anything they've offered in several years for sure, IMO.

Hey, some good changes there... and glad to see BTC and Double Dare aren't leaving... those alone are worth the price of admission!  It will be interesting to see where they start on WOF and TTD.
