Premiere Dates?
« on: August 29, 2004, 05:04:23 PM »
Is there is listing somewhere of the syndicated game shows for the fall and their premiere dates?  I'm getting ready to plan out my fall TV viewing and would like this info so I can plan accordingly.

Thanks!

I'll get you started.
Wheel Of Fortune, with its 1.5 million colors of light!!!!! starts syndicated season twenty-two on September 6.
Likewise, JENNINGS!: The All-New Jeopardy! begins airing new shows on Sep 6.
Family Feud begins its third year under Richard Karn's tenure (two more than psychic Louie Anderson estimated it would run) on September 13.
Consult your local listings for time and channel.

 Millionaire's new season bows on 9/13, TPIR's bows on 9/20, and Street Smarts bows on 9/27.

Now that we know what shows' season debuts are, let me organize a chronological order of these series as follows:

9/6:
Whee Of Fortune-Season 22
Jeopardy!-Season 21 marking the return of 38-day champ Ken Jennings

9/13:
Family Feud-Season 5 or 6(I think it's 6)
Syndie WWTBAM?-Season 3 with the new Question Swap lifeline & AOL's sponsorship of Ask The Audience & incorporating its AIM feature

9/20:
The Price Is Right-Season 33

9/27:
Street Smarts-Season 5

 Yes, folks, you read it right - the name of the show has been changed. Now, right after contestants spin the wheel, they will jump on top as it's spinning - how fun!!

WHEE!!!!!!!!!! of Fortune. :)

Hopefully, we'll get some kind of word in New York as to where Feud will be this season.  FOX tends to confuse us with bouncing the show back and forth between stations every year.

 Isn't the first week a teen week or something like that?

 I think it is, and everyone (including Da Perf) keeps saying that he'll be back next Monday.

Not going to waste my time correcting Perf - why would I? All he'd do is make the correction and never acknowledge he was wrong.

Alex said towards the end of season 20, that the new season would start with a back to school kids week, but we'll have to wait and see if that is indeed the case.

The show's own promos were saying that as well.  My local station is shifting J! to its sister station on that date (so we wouldn't miss it due to Jerry Lewis).  I don't think they'd care as much if it weren't KJ's return.

I also heard the Kids' Week remarks, but I think it's being delayed until KJ is out.  It wouldn't make much to extend the wait another week for Kids' Week when you've got a well known champion making a zillion bucks ready to roar back after summer reruns.

 Makes perfect sense. Why whizz away an almost guaranteed 10 rating? I hate those %&$# Kids' Weeks anyway.
"Oh, they're so cute. You have to see these darling children". I don't have to see anything. I'd rather get drunk with my teddy bear.

Whatever it is, Sony's keeping quiet--the web site's promoting the Power Players week rerun this week, the Brain Bus and "Clue Crew Adventures."  I can imagine that a "He's Back" promo has already been fed to the stations.

Well, they were originally intended as "Back to School" weeks, meaning within the first couple of weeks of September. (This year's was taped not too long ago.) That said, I don't believe they've released word on when it'll air.

Besides, last season didn't air the back to school episodes until a few weeks into the season. I would assume that wouldn't change this season.
