BUZZR Q1 2025

[BillCullen1]

A regular slot would be great. I know I'm in the minority here but (most likely stemming from the fact that I couldn't watch it during its original run) MG90 was a favorite.

I enjoyed it then and I still enjoy it. I think, when it comes down to the format, that’s the best attempt that was made. Sure, the original 7x format works well too, but the addition of Match Up was a good touch.

Agreed, it's good to see these again. I thought Ross eventually grew into his hosting role and did a good job.

Match Game '90 block continues the week of 1/27 with episodes 51-75.

Watching the first week of MG '90, and it's interesting to me that after two episodes and a taping break, they tweaked the tiebreaker into something more workable and repositioned the first break of the episode. It speaks to me of someone with a careful eye noting what could work better.

I like the idea of splitting the pie like they did but there’s too much host language to keep up the suspense.

On MG 90, it's so easy to cheat on Match - Up. Just keep picking either the first or last choice over and over. Eventually the celebrity will pick that up and do it too! Another reason why Match-up was such a bad idea.

The computer would randomly display some answers in the opposite order.

I wish they would have explained that more, since I thought the same thing until someone pointed this out a few weeks ago.

Schedule for next week isn't up, but Valentine's Week is. Some notable points:

- Match Game '90 moves to fill in the weekday afternoon MG block, and a medley of Card Sharks with episodes from all 3 classic versions moves into the morning
- The FF hour will feature the ex-spouses week of Combs Feud and Valentine's Week from '85
- The Perry CS finale will air on 2/12, and the Eubanks finale on 2/14

An interesting shift on the weekdays; no Rayburn MG, CC whittled down to an hour, and going heavy on Card Sharks with 10 episodes a day.
I'm assuming that something similar is happening on the prior week...? We'll see on that one.

Noon to 3PM that week are all Valentine's related. Two Eubanks Card Sharks weeks with appropriate polling groups in the 1PM hour (one week is men who placed personal ads in the newspaper, not sure what the other is) and the Classic Concentration hour at 2PM is two different editions of "Love Week," one from 1989 and one from 1991. The 1989 week is new-to-Buzzr.
