Late night and game show connection

[ChuckNet]

Jay also appeared on Battlestars and the MG/HS Hour, IIRC.

Tattletales, as well...he seemed to be all over the GS circuit in 1983. Did he ever do Just Men?

Dave was also on a couple of weeks of "The Love Experts" in 1978. 


Wouldn't those be a hoot to see again? Or, for me, for the first time. Next time Dave goes on vacation, CBS could unearth these shows (which they own) for campy late-show filler.

I imagine Dave would shoot himself in the head or do anything else to convince CBS not to air them. As it is the reruns of his NBC show are airing very much against his will, and, save for a 10-second clip of the premiere and 4 seconds of the finale, Dave is refusing to let his daytime show (which he owns) see the light of day.

And given Les Moonves' attitude toward game shows, I'm sure he's all for letting "The Love Experts" stay in the vault.

 I'm surprised he didn't try to keep GSN from running his Password Plus and $20K Pyramid appearances and the Riddlers pilot.

Unless they've just been sold, Sony owns Love Experts, as part of the Bob Stewart library.

While it is part of the Bob Stewart library, I don't think Sony owns it.  I'm pretty sure it falls under the same senario as Bill Cullen's "$25,000 Pyramid" - that the syndicator still owns part of it.  That's probably why we've never seen either show on GSN.

According to previous rumours, Letterman originally didn't sign the waiver clearing their airings, that's why it took almost three years before GSN aired any of his episodes.

Doesn't anyone remember the Pat Sajak show?

And we know what he does now.

 Personally, I'm trying to forget it.
