Only GameTV had rerun the first 18 episodes of Split Second 86 with the slightly different set. Yet to be determined is whether the show will be added to either GameTvgo or Bonus Round in the future. Additionally, Buzzr didn’t make it to the final episode (episode 130) last time it was rerun and episode 119 may likely be skipped from Buzzr The 1985 episodes of The All New Let’s Make a Deal is what Buzzr began with that version back in June 2016 except this time they will rerun in production order instead of randomly through the second half of season 1 Of the GameTV episodes I can find on the internet (not just YouTube), I can only find the first episode and episodes 15-18 prior to BUZZR's first "aired" episode (episode 19). If any of you can find other episodes in the GameTV only era, send me a PM if you can. |

The first 18 episodes were all on Youtube at one point, the channel (I believe it is the same person who went by chameleonwhammy on this forum but is no longer active) that hosted most of them was terminated a while back. Only a handful of other collectors would have all 18 of them as they only aired on Canadian stations

I'm sure Chuck Donegan has all of the first 18 episodes of Split Second from the GameTV airings as well. What's happening with Sam Mitchell these days? Is he still alive? I hope so. Same goes with tylernc1(pyramidfan90). |

Buzzr has time slots where they can air the show too, including Body Language. The schedule is still way too heavy on Classic Concentration, but it's nice to see that Match Game is down to just two hours a day since there are so few fresh episodes of Match Game 7X left. Guessing they will get into the second season of the syndicated version in 2024. It's also nice they FINALLY brought Newlywed Game down to an hour a day. I don't expect they'll abandon the double plays this year but it would be nice for them to go back and finish up the runs of Talk About, Whew!, Trivia Trap, Double Dare, and Beat The Clock. I'd also expect them to finish the run of Classic Concentration by the end of 2024 and perhaps go back to the Narz version? Perhaps we'll also finally get to see the last few months of PYL as well. Good. Then we can see the episodes where Art James announces on Concentration. |

Now as for the August 19 and 23, 1985 Super Password episodes, did he record the Buzzr airings of those 2 episodes or does he only have the August 2005 GSN airings of those? And AFAIK, the December 5, 1979 Password Plus episode he has was from a January 2007 GSN airing, just as Chain Reaction and Lingo are about to get renewed and GSN just started rerunning Love Connection from its 2nd season(something USA never reran, in fact, when GSN reran the LC episodes from its 6th season, they reran the very same random weeks that USA reran previously). |

MGP has both of the SP episode listed as BUZZR skipped, but not the PP episode. |

MGP has both of the SP episode listed as BUZZR skipped, but not the PP episode. I'm referring to Sam Mitchell if he has the August 19 and 23, 1985 Super Password episodes from the Buzzr or GameTV airings. We know that the December 5, 1979 Password Plus episode was the one that Buzzr skipped. But with the December 5, 1979 episode uploaded, that completes the entire 1979 calendar year uploaded by various people. Little did we know that the August 27-31, 1979 week was skipped by GSN entirely back in the day but was cleared to rerun later on. Now with the Super Password episodes coming up this coming week, there is a Cashword part of the episode that Buzzr cut out but there is a GSN airing of it that has the Cashword part unedited. So, for the week of January 29, Password Plus uploads will be from the 4-episode Brett Somers/Ross Martin week and the week of February 12, the January 7-11, 1980 week of episodes will have to deal with since later GSN cycles skipped 3 episodes from that week, even in its green-ball era days back when Michael Fleming was still there as CEO. |

More than likely only GSN recordings, since I said before BUZZR skipped those episodes, and would assume GameTV would do the same. Also, don't have his e-mail if you want to ask him. I would refer to MatchGameProductions about that. |

TTTT 1992, 1993 and 1994 aired previously on 9/28/2023 and 9/29/2023 during the 8pm hour.
Thanks, yes, this is correct... I got messed up when they apparently skipped over #1974 #1984 & #1991. A lot of missed episodes towards the end really threw me off, they haven't skipped too many, otherwise -- this was a bit of a surprise.
I'm still correct in thinking (hoping?) that as we approach the "end of the line" in the coming weeks and having been over three months since anything fresh aired, they may very well continue with another batch of 40 new episodes at the end of the month? Is that pretty consistent with other shows?
Incidentally, looks like exactly 40 more episodes would round out Season 6.
Can only speculate where they'd go after that. The audio, formatting, timing and blocking of the Blue & Yellow set era is much improved over the psychedelic set years, but those are great episodes too.
Assuming 40 fresh get aired, then will they roll back to #1481, the beginning of the main Buzzr loop that hasn't aired in about 2 years now..? This would have them at 280 total episodes, approx. Is that a lot? (For a show of similar number of seasons)
Thanks again.

Remember the thing I said about Buzzr edited out the Cashword part of the Super Password episode that GSN left intact? Well, tonight's Super Password upload is from a GSN recording that does have the Cashword part left intact that Buzzr(and GameTV) edited out. And yes, GameTV DID air the August 19 and 23, 1985 Super Password episodes(with fee plugs left in) when GameTV had it on their retro block schedule, Greg Brobeck and rewindium remembered it all along.

So, is this the episode is question (this is the BUZZR airing from TGSC)? So, what MGP is showing is what you said, the GSN airing, with the Cashword intact? |

Correct, the part from the 10:30 to 12:03 marks in MGP’s upload from the GSN broadcast was removed from the Buzzr broadcast by their standards and practices due to the Cashword using the racial term Minstrel

"Minstrel" in and of itself isn't a racist term. |
