Cullen TPIR on Buzzr?

Apparently Game TV in Canada re-ran some Drew episodes a few years ago.

In unrelated news to this, CC continues to at least the week before Xmas 1987 (151 on 3/15, OAD supposedly 12/18/87).  TATTLETALES goes back in time from 252 to 202 on 3/12.

We'll get into 1988 on 3/22.

Anyone have any knowledge about when the TAKE cards make their first appearance? It should be soon, right?

Episode 120 on Nov 4th 87

I think Bzzr aired it last week.

According to this episode guide, the Green TAKE made its debut on 11/4/1987 and Buzzr reran that episode back on 2/22. The Children's Week episodes that made much of this week's Buzzr episodes already had them in play.

Thanks. I am a couple weeks behind, probably should have asked that AFTER I watched those!

Curiosity question about Classic Concentration: at what point in the run did they let the contestants start explaining the puzzles?

1989? I have shows I recorded in late 1988 when casual Alex is hosting and he still explains the puzzles.

The latest show I could find on YouTube from 1988 still has Alex explaining the puzzles, but by January 1989, the contestants were.

The FF eps are all from 1994 (half hour versions--104 is first, then 96, 97 and 98).

Anybody have any idea what could be special about these episodes? Judging by the high episode numbers and the fact that they're 30 minutes, I'd guess that they're from Ray Combs' last season and not the season with Dawson's return.

I got a press release from Buzzr that includes a few video clips, one of which is of the Burnett/White matchup from the 94-95 season with Dawson, so that answers that.

Now they are at the point on CC where they are displaying the puzzle solution on the screen after the contestant solves it.

The first episode with that aired on Tuesday, so it should rerun this weekend if you want to catch it. Alex acknowledged the change after the first puzzle that day, saying it was in response to the letters from hard-of-hearing viewers.

Yep, and thanks for the clarification on which day it was! I watched it but didn't remember.

For some reason, I thought that came a couple years later. Maybe I’m thinking of when they started displaying the solution during Gene’s intro?

Awesome, these will be new to me!
