According to Passport TV, it'll still be on all but Thursdays and Fridays. Oh thank goodness. Almost had a heart attack.

Whoa, Password Plus is jumping ahead from #130 (on 10/11) to #182 (on 10/14)! They appear to be showing #182-186 this week (though the original airdates on the site are off by a week?). I wonder if that means we'll see them cross into #187-191 next week, which would mean showing #188 and beyond for the first time.

I show that 185-186 were skipped when that week first aired on Buzzr in late May. 186 was aired on June 30 as part of the Pride special but I don't think 185 has been shown yet? In addition to TTTT being replaced by Paid Programming on 10/17, WML goes back to 72-1573.

If the schedule is correct, this Thursday will be the first time Password Plus 185 airs on Buzzr.

Quite right, traderrob and aardsy! I was equivocal because of the weird issue with the listed airdates being off by a week, but it looks to me like we'll get to see #185 on Thursday, which will be great. I overlooked that #186 was shown in June -- we watched it on YouTube in any event, when we were catching up on episodes we missed. This is great news. The only downer for us is that we haven't seen #149-155 yet since we were out of town for those, so we'll have to catch them on some future rebroadcast (except the mysterious #154 which doesn't seem to get shown). Both now and back when they showed these in May/June, Buzzr has listed #182-186 (Debralee Scott and Wesley Eure) as originally broadcast on September 24-28, 1979. But other sources have the Scott/Eure week as September 17-21, 1979, and the 9/24-9/28 week is #187-191 with Joanna Gleason and Robert Pine. I don't see a missing week in anyone's episode guides, so I guess it's just a record-keeping error at Buzzr.

Not sure if #154 was ever even rerun. In addition, P+ had two weeks that are skipped entirely: Betty Thomas & Denver Pyle (October 05; 07-09; 12, 1981) and Jenilee Harrison & James B. Sikking (December 23-25; 28-29, 1981). Both weeks each had a cast member from Hill Street Blues, so either a clearance issue, or neither saw the request letter.

I wonder if Buzzr and/or Fremantle checked celebrity clearances for MGHS Hour, as they had celebs that didn't do other game shows rerun on GSN or Buzzr.

Do we know anything at all about #154 to explain its anomalous absence? The other big one is the infamous "Sicilian" episode, #134, but we obviously know the deal with that. Did Marcia or Robert say something truly awful in #154 (broadcast on August 8, 1979)? Or did the tape just get munched? (Are copies of #154 around on the collectors' circuit? The tradelists I've checked don't have it.)

I have a copy of 154 from GSN, so, yes, it aired.

I don't really feel like rewatching it to find out, but considering its the week where a boob came out and they aired THAT episode... I'm sure it's fine.

I'm sure you'd remember if there was anything crazy, yeah. I'm just curious why Buzzr's been avoiding it -- particularly since you mentioned a while back that GSN has (at least at some point) skipped it as well. And of course, I'd like to see it someday.
