They appeared to get the rights to it a few years ago, and even offered 20 episodes on Prime for a bit, late 2019 I think?
This'll be the first time it's aired on the actual network.

Think Fremantle has the format.

My guess is it had something to do with Fremantle keeping Strike it Lucky in production for many years in the UK after Kline & Friends ceased to be a thing.

Winner Take All '51, Choose Up Sides, It's News to Me (seriously, did someone at BUZZR get this idea from my prior post? :P)

Hey, I’ve been part of several online fan groups where industry insiders would lurk and occasionally even join in the conversation. While I don’t have any knowledge thereof, it wouldn’t surprise me a bit that there are some BUZZR staff eyeballs here.
So you may be more influential that you realized. ;)

4 episodes of Beat the Clock '72! It's showing episodes 11-14, were those still with Jack?
EDIT: some quick-on-the-draw episode guide memorizers in another forum say that it's with Gene Wood and guest Gisele MacKenzie

Nice. I’ve never been a huge BtC guy, but I took a liking to Gene’s version for some reason. Glad to see it getting a little attention.

Looks like another day of gimmickry on 1/27/23 (12N - 4PM ET). A 1981 syndie MG (ep 252), two WML? (one from 1968, the other from 1971), the "Rip rips his toupee off" ep of SP, and a 1983 FF syndie ep (non-celebs), plus a TT from 1974, a BL from 1985 and a MG76 that I believe have all aired before.
Not sure what the common thread is (normally I'd say it's a "Let's Laugh Day" marathon, but that day isn't until March).
