I'm not too fond of the Monster Buzz block on Sunday night, but otherwise this is a very nice looking schedule!!  Can't wait to see what the Buzzr Time Machine will have to offer!!  That reminds me of Game Show Saturday Night on GSN.

Then don't watch. They can't program a schedule that everybody will love every minute.

Already planned on not watching it and if others like it good for them. However, I do have the right to express that I'm not interested or not too fond of them.  Now moving on...

Nobody is depriving you of the "right" to express yourself on a message board. My point is that it is beyond tedious for everybody to riffle through the schedule to point out the things that they don't like for the reasons I listed.

Now moving on...

Congratulations on your appointment as moderator, as well.

And judging by those listings, looks like the network "launches" at 7am on June 1. Out of curiosity, I checked the descriptions to see what hosts are for Feud, Match Game, and Card Sharks (on weekdays). I wouldn't hold much stock in that right now. Dawson is the only "Feud" host listed, MG is only Rayburn, and CS is only Perry. Additionally, according to the guide, LMAD is the hour-long Brady version (Tattletales is listed as a 1 hr. program as well).

I dunno...all he said was he doesn't like the block of programs. It's not like he's complaining about too much Feud or saying "Why can't they show Password+ instead?" Once we start seeing "Dream Schedules", then I say we start shaking our heads.

The TitanTV times are an hour later from what I was provided by Fremantle too. So that's a little odd. I've also heard that the network has "soft-launched" at least in Los Angeles with a Card Sharks marathon.

It also looks like BUZZR's website has been updated a bit - alas, no "official"  schedule. Just a little dropdown to where you can find it in your area and a newsletter option in the upper right hand corner.

[TLEberle]

Dog Tales is a bit of an odd choice: why would anyone want to watch the adventures of the richest duck in the world from the point of view of the Beagle Boys?

Took a peek at 6/7/15...No sign of any Buzzr TV affiliate or subchannel in my neighborhood...yet. 

Then again, we have had the Movies! diginet for over a year and Titan, TV Guide, nor our local newspaper have yet to acknowledge it's existence.

10A/10:30: Stanley on the Go (E/I)

I was thinking this was some sort of Thomas the Tank Engine spin-off but it's apparently a fella traveling the globe on Retirement Living TV.

The Buzzr Time Machine sounds cool if it cycles in some lesser-scheduled programs but I guess I was hoping for more variety for the two-day span, even though they are just starting to get going. I'm curious as to why, out of all of Fremantle's reality holdings, they felt the Monster block made the most sense to put on the network.

Probably because they were produced by (outgoing) Fremantle CEO Thom Beers.

So the times are eastern right?

Yes. Adjust for wherever you are.
