I don't get to see NBC's actual feeds anymore, but I'm 99% sure they're still doing this.
Not that this has much to do with game shows, but I might as well get this firsthand knowledge out of my brain: as of late 1998, the overnight feed times were "Sunset Beach" at 3:00 A.M., "Another World" at 4:00, "DOOL" at 5:00, and "Leeza" at 6:00 (in reverse order of their airtimes on the "official" NBC daytime schedule). There were also feeds at certain times during the day for stations that wanted to take them "live"...if I recall correctly, for example, "Leeza" was also fed at 10:00, 11:00, 1:00, and 3:00 Eastern.
Incidentally, at the time, same-day "Sunset Beach" reruns were airing at 3:04 A.M....I wondered if any affiliates ever got confused about which feed they should be taking and ended up showing the wrong day's "Sunset Beach" at some point.
