Here's my ideal GSN or Buzzr schedule (I don't have GSN but i do have Buzzr so for that reason i'd like to call this my idea Buzzr schedue):
Friday into Saturday (overnight schedule): 12:00 am Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader? 12:30 am Password Plus 1:00 am Jeopardy! 1:30 am Wheel of Fortune 2:00 am Who Wants to be a Millionaire? 2:30 am The Newlywed Game (hosted by Sherri Shepherd) 3:00 am Greed (hosted by Chuck Woolery) 4:00 am Weakest Link 5:00 am Press Your Luck 5:30 am Press Your Luck
Saturday Primetime 6:00 pm Catch 21 6:30 pm Whammy! The All New Press Your Luck 7:00 pm Lingo (hosted by Chuck Woolery) 8:00 pm The Weakest Link 9:00 pm Press Your Luck 9:30 pm Press Your Luck 10:00 pm Greed (hosted by Chuck Woolery) 11:00 pm Russian Roulette 11:30 pm Russian Roulette
Sunday Primetime same as Saturday Primetime but a full hour of another game show in the 10pm timeslot
*The overnight schedule can be the same as the whole weekday schedule, beginning with Monday into Tuesday, except in the 3am timeslot, instead of Greed being there they can air The $100k Pyramid there and Greed would only air in the 3am timeslot on Friday into Saturday.
*As for Greed being on Saturday nights, they would air the same exact episode that had aired 19 hours prior, since there were only 44 episodes of the series. However, since Fox did a 2-hour premiere on November 4, 1999 (after this, if you count this as one whole episode then there are 43 episodes) if airing the first episode(s) then that episode would air for two full hours from 3am - 5am the night prior and then from 10pm to 12am on Saturday night. This does not need to be repeated with The Weakest Link and the full hour of Press Your Luck since both shows had more episodes than Greed.

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). Couldn't some of those game shows be considered education shows. With the crap they call education shows today you could learn more during a half hour of password

Even 5th Grader would be considered an education show. Seriously. Jeopardy, Blockbusters, what have you.

GSN: - subtract some airings of both Newlywed Game(Shepherd) & Family Feud(Harvey) - air the Flashback Friday block from 6pm/5pm central to 10pm/9pm central - add 7am/6am hour on Mon-Fri & 8am/7am hour on Sat & Sun - remove Chain Reaction(Lane) & Baggage
Buzzr: - fresh new classic episodes of Card Sharks, Match Game, Family Feud, Sale of the Century, What's My Line, I've Got a Secret, Password, Password Plus, Blockbusters(if returns to the schedule) & To Tell The Truth to be aired more than once or twice a year - working on adding The Price is Right(pre-1993) to the schedule once if Bob Barker dies - take Temptation: The New SOTC off from the schedule

GSN Tone down the Steve Harvey Family Feud. The End. This. Also, add Supermarket Sweep to the schedule.

I wish Buzzr should run their schedule for one week a year in the same/similar pattern NBC and CBS would run their game shows back in the day for either the 70s or 80s. I do it with my PC games at home when I'm off of work and bored.
Example: 9am-Wordplay 9:30am-Blockbusters (Rafferty) 10am-Sale of the Century (NBC Daytime eps only) 10:30am-Classic Concentration 11am-Wheel of Fortune (NBC Daytime eps) 11:30am-Win, Lose, or Draw Noon-Super Password 12:30pm-Scrabble
Problem is Wordplay got nixed quickly (I forgot why), NBC/Comcast won't give up Concentration, Sony owns Wheel, Who knows who owns WLorD, and Hasbro won't allow Scrabble or FM is too lazy to ask or pay Hasbro (USA had it back 25 years ago). That NBC Daytime game show lineup in the late 80s was strong and very underrated.
CBS shows would have the same issues or worse as FM doesn't own Whew!, 25K Pyramid, or Bob Goen Wheel. Plus Bob Barker won't allow TPIR to be shown and Chuck Henry is too embarrassed that he hosted Now You See It.
