GSN is very easy: LESS FEUD.

For your Buzzr schedule, a few things.
First: Very unrealistic. I hate to sound like some specific annoying people on Facebook, but if the show is not property of Freemantle Media, it's not going to be on the network in the foreseeable. So many of your shows like The Joker's Wild, Wheel of Fortune (all versions), and Pyramid wouldn't work.
Second: As much as I loathe the education shows on weekend mornings, they're required to be there. They have to show a specific amount of those shows per week in order to stay on (and it looks like they already do the bare minimum anyways).
Third: Personally, I would not be a good fan of that schedule. You've already removed Password Plus, Beat the Clock, $ale of the Century, Tattletales, Card Sharks with Bill Rafferty, Blockbusters, Body Language, Child's Play, Now You See it, and Trivia Trap which for the most part have stuck around the schedule. One could argue they might not all be rating grabbers, and that they have nothing else to air, but they're still on the schedule. Plus shows that didn't worked like Richard Simmons' Dream Maker and Family Feud with Louie Anderson have all vanished (ok, Louie will be back again on Tuesday at noon, but it will only be for a couple of weeks). Based on those two, I don't think your "revolting reboots" would last long.
As for what I'd do, I'd cut or trim either the weekend or morning repeats of Match Game or Feud. You could add some other shows such as Jim Perry's Card Sharks, Trebek's Double Dare or Super Password in some of those slots. Otherwise, I don't have too many complaints about the Buzzr schedule.
As for GSN, I don't care too much. I'd love to see them run some of their old originals in the mornings, or something like Regis' version of Who Wants To Be a Millionaire. Otherwise, I don't care. I'm either watching Buzzr or doing something else productive.

Thats because i was going to do an alternate schedule. at the removal of TT. Besides, I've yet to do the GSN schedule. So here goes the Alt Buzzr schedule:
Also, this works like the fantasy schedule threads. Money is no object and ownership rights don't matter.
Weekday Mornings (Morning Madness, 7 AM-12 PM):
7 AM: Beat the Clock (Hall) 7:30 AM:Bullseye 8 AM: Now You See It (Narz) 9 AM: Tattletales 9:30: Blockbusters (Cullen) 10 AM: Trivia Trap 10:30 AM: Password Plus (Ludden) 11 AM: Card Sharks (Perry) 11:30 AM: Now You See It (Narz) Noon: Sale of the Century (Perry)
Afternoons (Afternoon Flashback) (12-5)
Noon- Tic Tac Dough 90 1 PM- Shop Till You Drop 1:30 PM: Supermarket Sweep 2 PM- Tic Tac Dough 70s 3 PM- Hollywood Squares 60s 4 PM: What's My Line 70s 5 PM: To Tell The Truth 90s 6 PM: Whew
Primetime Power Players (Also on Weekends) (7-11)
7 PM: The Price is Right 8 PM: Jeopardy 9 PM: Wheel of Fortune 10 PM: Hollywood Squares 11 PM: Match Game 7x
Black and White Overnight (See black and white block above)(Midnight-3 AM) (Programming ends at 3 AM)
Weekend Schedule:
Morning Kids Block 9-11 AM
9 AM: Child's Play 9:30 AM: Jep 10 AM: Wheel 2K 10:30 AM: Jep 11 AM: Choose Up Sides (If enough eps exist)
Afternoon Flashback and Primetime Power Players are the same as the weekday blocks. As is B&WO

For Buzzr, on weekends, I’d put one different show every weekend and marathon it. Sometimes trends to such as black and white game shows all weekend or if an anniversary (birthday, premiere date) is on the day, run that show. Also maybe on birthdays of hosts or (in the case of to tell the truth or match game) panelists, air some episodes of them at their funniest.

I'm not sure about that. Unless they're obscure, that way, you can put in a different obscurity (eg Bullseye, chain reaction, etc)

Risking the immediate "that can't be done with Freemantle" response, my fantasy game show network would include the original Password from the '60s (only all the Allen Ludden versions would run first, maybe after 10 years would I'd go to Bert Convey), next I'd run Truth Or Consequences, Bob Eubanks' Newlywed Game (esp. the '60's version), Price Is Right with Bob and all the lovely FURS!!! episodes along with the beautiful Holly and Diane!!!! (take that Barker, you really come off now as pure pettiness, some people outlive their own good memories, as opposed to others who depart far too soon, Bud Collyer, where are ye?). Back to fantasy land we go, I'd also have Candid Camera, Dating Game (Jim Lange version), all daytime Bud Collyer To Tell The Truths, along with Groucho's Tell It To Groucho, Hollywood Squares, Gong Show (yes, that's right) and ALL of Bill Cullen hosted shows ESPECIALLY ALL of Blockbusters!

Based on those two, I don't think your "revolting reboots" would last long. And fourth, TPIR is not happening any time soon. CBS will not allow older TPIR to be rebroadcast because it may impact ratings for the current first-run episodes. Plus, many, many years of episodes are banned from rebroadcast because of furs, animal products, and certain cast members who sued Bob.

This smells like it's a "dream schedule" thread. We already have two of them around here. I'm almost ready to merge all three of them together, since I put all three of them in this section.

GSN indeed less Feud as it has become the Feud Channel
Buzzr more classics and not rerun abuse...
Wished either channel would run Barry, Barris, Hatos-Hall classics.

They have run Hatos Hall on both GSN and Buzzr. Both had a full day of LMAD when Monty died. I'd like to see his version of Split Second.

Less Feud and Match Game on Buzzr and more fresh episodes of every show they have on a more consistent basis and I'll be fine. Also I'd like to see the syndicated eras of What's My Line, Beat the Clock, and To Tell The Truth.

It's easy for me to say, Less Feud. I'm not a fan of Harvey, but hell we'd sure like to have more Dawson or Combs on GSN, which there isn't a trace of either on the schedule right now.
Networks seem to follow one another. Monkey see, monkey do. I've noticed this. Rerun your most popular shows into the ground so people can binge watch those into the ground, since we are living in the "binge watching age" as I like to call it. For GSN it seems to be mostly Family Feud, but also The Chase, Idiotest and Cash Cab come into the mix, even Deal or No Deal has made more of a comeback on the network, albeit not one of their top shows like it was back in 2009 and 2010. DoND is a classic by today's standards and someday that show will be ancient by 30 or 40 years.
Other cable networks also follow this similar trend. LOGO started airing older shows from the 70s again in blocks I've noticed, I don't watch that though. TV Land comes to mind though, Food Network, TBS, etc.
I don't think there ever will truly be "less Feud". I don't care much anyways, as I don't watch GSN much at all. My favorite shows on there of the most recent ones are probably Idiotest and Cash Cab and I watch those on occasion.

and ALL of Bill Cullen hosted shows ESPECIALLY ALL of Blockbusters! THAT I can agree with. Truthfully, I wouldn't care if the schedules didn't change at all, but please, just add more leases of existing shows and no more than one repeat of an existing lease. That goes for both GSN and BUZZR.
