To paraphrase Smuckers, "Haggis Baggis" had to be good.
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

 While Erik may be annoying, perhaps I should take the time out to remind everyone that it's highly likely he is mentally handicapped. [links to ATGS archives available upon request]

 I think he might well be mentally handicapped, though there was some question on ATGS as to just how handicapped he is. He's annoying at worst.

 Since no one really got around to answer your query (some questions can get lost in a thread with a lot of responses--wish *my* threads sparked that kind of interest), P+ was moved to the 12N ET "death slot" on 10/26/81 (BATTLESTARS took P+'s old slot, and Perry CS was jettisoned), where it remained until cancellation the following March.

Well, I'll name my favorite NBC ones in one post:

Assuming it's a game show (I don't see why it isn't), G.E. College Bowl would be first, then Celebrity Sweepstakes, followed by (not necessarily in order) Jeopardy! (the original version), Concentration (both versions), Sale of the Century (both of the three-player versions; I didn't like the couples one that much), High Rollers, Jackpot! (before they got rid of the riddles and the target number), Password Plus, Super Password, and Baffle (before it got incredibly easy - once a team got four puzzles in under ten seconds, that was pretty much it).

-- Don  (I always hate making lists like this as I invariably leave a few off - then again, that's what editing is for)

 If one is intelligent enough to read a message board, and also to set up a discussion site (even if Proboards does most of the work for you), one should be able to make reasonable posts.  The "Rainman" or "Chris Farley Show" ("you remember Romper Room?  That was awesome...") act seems unnecessary.

(Is it "talking behind someone's back" when they're watching everything being said?)

 Replace "worst" with "best", and that, my friends, is irony writ large.

 Brandon, just be glad he hasn't mentioned "Emmy" or Dragontales yet.

Complete deadlock between Super Password, Password Plus, Scrabble, and Blockbusters; I just can't decide.

That's why I picked my Top 5 & the 3 Honorable Mentions earlier.

In regards to the KYW block, it started at 3pm.  It lasted for 2 hours I believe.  I know $ale of the Century, Scrabble & the syndicated TPIR was on each day.  Not sure what was the forth one was.

 The KYW afternoon GS block from 1984-89 was originally LMAD and Lange NTT which began in 9/84. From 1/85-9/85 it was $otC/Daytime WOF/LMAD/NTT/Syndie Feud. From 9/85-1/86 it was Scrabble/Super Password/WHeel/80s Newlywed, in 1/86 Kennedy TPIR was added to the afternoon block when moved from 7PM to 4:30PM EST. 9/86 saw TPIR replaced with Davidson HS. The Scrab/SP/Wheel/HS/Newlywed block lasted through March 1988, when $100K Pyramid moved from late nights to 4:30PM on KYW(Newlywed went to late nights at that point). September 1988-December 1988 had Scrabble/Wheel/Squares in the afternoon block. From December 1988-June 1989, it was Scrabble and Wheel only, then Scrabble and Squares from June-September 1989. Finally, Jackpot and 3rd Degree aired from 3-4PM from September 1989-January 1990, then the afternoon KYW GS block died.
