A Betty White Christmas to air on Christmas Day

[quote name=\'Pyramid80\' date=\'Sep 26 2005, 10:45 AM\']I hit a firewall at work because his site is considered gambling.  Sounds great thought!

Perfesser's site, of all places, is considered gambling. Now THAT'S irony.

I was positive they aired this circa 2001.

I was questioning those 2 shows myself.  I didn't remember seeing Betty on Body Language, and sure don't remember her and Allen on Tattletales.

As per a few episode guides on the internet, Betty appeared on Body Language during the weeks of July 2, 1984 and August 27, 1984.  She and Allen appeared on four weeks of Tattletales in 1974 alone... not sure about the rest of the run.

There were no Xmas themed $100K shows. It won't be an Xmas themed show unless they pull out a $20K or CBS $25K episode, and somehow I don't see them doing that.

I don't think they featured a marathon of shows that had Betty as a guest (not to be confused with the "12 Games" marathon that she hosted).

This is NOT a marathon of Christmas-themed episodes.  It is merely a marathon of Betty White appearances.

That'll last, what, all of four weekends?

Question is rhetorical, Zach.  Look that up in your Funk & Wagnall's (tips go in the mayonnaise jar left on their porch since noon today).

Yep, that's right. And I assume the reason GSN will be showing Betty White episodes is for the little pun in the title of the marathon: a (Betty) White Christmas.

I'm looking forward to the marathon.

I like $20,000 Pyramid and $25,000 Pyramid (hosted by Dick Clark not Bill Cullen). GSN should put those on the weekday schedule with $10,000 Pyramid on the weekend schedule.

W/only 3 wks of the $10K known to exist, that'd barely last 2 mos...GSN already ran through what they had on a GS Saturday Night marathon that aired back in fall 00 and those Pyramid Thursday primetime blocks they used to have in 02.

And they don't have the rights to the Cullen version, anyway, which is in Viacom's hands.

I think GSN can only air the 1986-87 season of $100K Pyramid, and no other Pyramids at this point. Those in the know can correct me on that if I'm mistaken. However, the only week of $100K Pyramid Betty did was the second week of the third season(9/14/87-9/18/87)

And, as asked over on the GSN boards:
Why should (in your own words) they do that?  I see absolutely 0 benefit to GSN.

[Brakus]

Chances are that they may air the "Richard, give us a smile!" episode as one of the two Match Game episodes in the afternoon during the Betty White marathon.

But what are the chances that they'll air the final segment without any interruption or interference from GSN? (that is, if they decide to air that episode at all?)
