Yes, finally, something USEFUL on this forum shows up.

Now, I didn't say that. There is lots of useful information on this forum. There is also a lot of posting designed to make episodes of shows seem important because of asinine bits of minutae.

What an amazing treat this is! (no pun intended).

I couldn't believe it when I changed the channel to GSN and there was Feud 94; I spit my coffee out (literally). And rushed to find a blank DVD. Thanks GSN!

Anyone want to explain that?

Acually when Nick-At-Nite had the Jeffersons in '99, I recall, they first only had rights to maybe six and a half seasons (out of I think ten).

On Superbowl Sunday night in '00 they ran a night of sports-related shows. For 'Jeffersons' the network ran a baseall-themed episode from the last season. I remeber thinking that they must have licesend that one show just for the mini-marathon.

Perhaps that explains todays show. Being biased since 'Feud' is my favorite and Dawson my favorite host, I would love for that version to be on every Sunday afternoon.

It's back? That's good! That's one Halloween treat that GSN viewers rarely get.

No one has said yet that "It's back".

There was Halloweenie stuff around the set and the music mix was too low. One family won, blew Fast Money, beat the defending champs, and blew it again.

The second of the two WBSM episodes that followed was far more interesting, IMO. At least in terms of gameplay.

They didn't beat the defending champs. The champs beat them, but failed to win fast money.

Was it just me shaking my head when Richard handed a cardboard sign to the Davis family in the first half hour?

Winnings on the sign:$765.

lol

Richard's custom was to hand a winning family the sign when they were about to leave the show as undefeated champions(on the nighttime show always, and when they hit the network limit on the ABC run), but to do it when they were just starting out as champs is unusual. The Combs era Feud rarely saw a family holding a sign, only times I remember were after a TofC win.
