Just saw a promo/commercial for it on Buzzr. Let the Barker fans rejoice.

I posted a few more details in the “Rumor Confirmed” thread on the GSN/BUZZR board, but I’ll repost here so it’s not missed. (Mods, please do what you need to do to keep the discussion organized):

According to this Facebook post (also shared by BUZZR), episodes shown will start from season 11 (1982), the first year that furs were no longer offered as prizes:

Also on a BUZZR-related note: Pluto will be moving BUZZR back into the Entertainment section of its program guide, which is also where the new TPIR channel will be located.

From 1982 will have Barker's Beauties and the legendary Johnny O saying "Come on down." Plus all those grandfather clocks and dinette sets.

There's a transparent "Plinko chip" as the lower-right corner bug. Cute!

Golly—this could make things like sleep, writing trivia questions and personal hygiene take a back seat for a minute.

They kept the consolation prize plugs before the 2nd showcase showdown, though they cut the ticket plug before the 1st showdown (it's the same address, though they likely don't accept snail mail requests anymore).

EDIT: They also aired full screen credits, too. Yay!

They’ve also added a few classic sitcom channels like “Happy Days” and “Family Ties”. That plus TPiR basically guarantees I’m only leaving the house for work for the next couple weeks. :P

We now have no less than 5 24 hour game show channels, something unimaginable 5-10 years ago. Exciting times for sure.

What's the fifth? (I know of GSN, Buzzr, Game Show Central and now the TPIR channel)

STIRR has an all-Deal Or No Deal channel.

So CBS obviously. 

Wonders if said sitcom channels have: 1) Entire run and/or what's been released to DVD.  2) Is it the DVD copies with CBS's signature music butchering?

A grandfather clock was literally the first IUFB I saw when I checked it out this morning.
