Comcast lists the 9-10AM EST shows on their on-screen program guide as being from 1971 and the 10:30-11:30AM EST shows as being from 1972

Just finished watching the first episode in the marathon. I remember seeing it on the evening of September 1, 2001. It is really nice that GSN didn't show a splitscreen promo during the end credits, and it does make sense since there is gameplay going on during the credits. If there was a splitscreen promo, no big deal to me.

Currently, it's an episode from later in the 70s, based on the intro. It's likely at least Season 2. I know a modified version of the theme with a cartoon version of Monty on a flying carpet was likely from 1975, according to a post I read from the spring of 2009, just before the daily airings were dropped after several weekend-only airings.
Question: How many episodes of the 1970s syndicated run were produced, and were they only aired weekly originally, like with Match Game PM?

Does anyone have a recap of episodes they've aired thus far? I know they aired the syndicated premiere first off (which I remember seeing back in June 2007), and a couple of other ones with the blue curtain in the background after that, but now I can't get access to the network.

And the marathon concludes with the Vegas finale, as well as the finale of the whole 1963-1977 series with a special appearance from Joanna Gleason, Monty's daughter. And yet again, season 2 of TANLMAD remains untouched.
On the plus side, they ran an episode or so not in Buzzr's rotation.

They aired the Vegas finale? Good! Haven't seen that one in awhile.
How many 1980's episodes did they air? Just that one?

I managed to record all the episodes today, but missed seeing one full episode - the one that aired at 11:00 a.m. ET - because I had to go to Walmart for something. When I got back it was in the middle of a 1984-85 season episode, the last deal before the big deal.
As for full recaps, I don't have them in detail, but I do know that every episode aired today had a big deal winner, to say the least, and the last three episodes were the Las Vegas episodes, with the best saved for last - the finale with a $12,000 Big Deal that was offered and won.
The 1977 syndicated finale last aired sometime in June 2008, which was not long after I first got GSN on digital cable.
Aside from the 1984 episode, were there any others that were never aired on Buzzr?

Now that I've got yesterday's episodes in my possession, looks like only one 1980's episode aired during the whole marathon. Figured they would've aired more than that. A few Vegas and Wood Panel set episodes aired too, but for the most part, it was early 70's.

^ Nope, the 1963 premiere never aired during yesterday's marathon. I think the reason for such false information was probably because GSN may have intended to pick up the 1963 premiere, but when they finalized the schedule, they threw in the towel and decided to air episodes previously aired on GSN.

... they threw in the towel and decided to air episodes previously aired on GSN. I thought that the pilot aired on GSN before, with little facts throughout.

Just about nothing exists for the daytime run from NBC or ABC. A primetime episode of the latter (B&W kinescope) was shown on Buzzr two years ago.
