Title: I just now noticed...

"New Quiz Kids".  Is this the 1981-82 CBS Cable entry; and if so; what library did this come from?

GSN has aired the Jonathan Prince version in the past, although the Jim McKrell version in the late '70's was syndicated by Columbia Pictures.  Columbia got the Norman Lear sitcom library when they absorbed Embassy, so the Lear version is a remote possibility, but I think it must be the Jonathan Prince version. Whichever one it is, it's not going to get into the festival, so it really is a moot point.  Wouldn't you love to be an archivist at GSN?

 Actually, they have "Quiz Kids Challenge" listed separately.
