GSN Acquires Meredith Viera's Millionaire
« on: October 07, 2008, 09:12:36 PM »
GSN is freshening up it's schedule and adding Meredith's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire to the schedule. It will replace most of Regis' slots. It will air Weekdays at 8:00pm and 12:00am for a full hour. It will also air on Saturdays at 12:00am. And it will air Sundays at 2:00pm for another hour.

Another little change is The All New Beat The Clock with Monty Hall will be airing on Wednesday, November 12th at 2:00am. No idea if it will be replacing Trivia Trap altogether or if it will air just one night a week.

Cool. Don't get me wrong, Regis is the man, but his show has been run enough. I'll tune in for these without a doubt.

So, what are they doing with the 5pm run on the weekends? Keeping a few Regis shows around just for chits and giggles?

Very nice.  Hopefully they'll finish where they left off, by airing the final 4 episodes of the series.

Sorry, some info was mixed up.  GSN sent me the Excel file of the schedule right now.  It looks like Beat the Clock replaces Trivia Trap, as it's on for the rest of that week, and Millionaire only airs once, at 2:00PM, just replacing Camouflage.  Sorry about the confusion, the new email I got just a moment ago clarified things.

So the "new" episodes only air once a week?

(just a little confused)

Just a quick question: did GSN license this run from Sony or Disney?

Well, my prediction on when they'd get these was off.  I predicted they'd have the Vierra eps by the end of 2004.  Better late than never, though.

AFIAK, he was correcting the fact that he said Viera Millionaire would be an hour on weekends; it will only be one episode.

Anyone know where in the run they are starting? I know that GSN is probably only going to license that season.

And just to clarify, since I don't think Mike's hope was ever answered here--the PDFs on Buzzerblog indicate Hall BtC is starting from the beginning, so we'll have to wait awhile to get the final four eps not aired in the weekend run.

Schedules at Buzzerblog show it starting at "1001", so I'd assume the first season.

Where in that would the last million dollar winner fall?
