Title: Other shows possibly coming to BUZZR?
Post by: jimlangefan on January 06, 2016, 06:47:54 PM
Being the 75th anniversary of the TV Game Show, BUZZR seems to be planning either a one off event, or permanently bringing some other shows to the lineup.  A post to BUZZR's FB page was asking if The Joker's Wild or Tic Tac Dough was ever going to be added and Buzzr directly answered saying to watch for new announcements in the early part of this year.

As exciting it sounds, remember that this is coming from the same social media team that highlights their new Sale episodes with a YouTube screen grab from 1983.

Um...this person is aware that there is no connection between B&E and Fremantle, right?

Even Scrabble & Time Machine won't help some people...

I don't think that was a good idea.

I submitted it to demonstrate how people are taking this too seriously and have gone beyond the point of rationality. There's two or three people that seem to have taken on the role of "Unofficial BUZZR Spokespeople" and comment on lots of people's posts about why things won't happen the way that the people want them to.

Also, the less than 500 people who could see it here dwarf the 85000+ people who "like" the BUZZR Facebook page.

I understand that, but I might've chosen an example that can't be potentially misconstrued as dumping on the guy just because. Certainly, as we saw when you-know-who jumped the gun on Dave's Card Sharks goof, there's easier examples. :)

Well there's a statement filled with no useful information whatsoever.

"Motorists may or may not encounter marked or unmarked patrol vehicles that may be manned or unmanned during the special enforcement period."

That was a direct quote from the press conference of a joint speed enforcement task force that I got stuck with. We chuckled at the looks of the reporters trying to wrap their heads around that non-statement.

No. Not a Fremantle show.
