Maybe next time will be when "new" episodes begin. The 10 AM SOTC time slot is three weeks behind the 7 PM SOTC time slot, so we will have another chance for "fresh" episodes then. BTW, the 10 AM SOTC time slot has been running continuously since 11/19/2018 from episode 16, so I agree it is a bit odd then 7 PM is only going back to episode 31.
Friday, May 24 will mark approximately nine straight weeks of Classic Concentration repeats. This is about the same amount of time that elapsed between when BUZZR premiered episodes 61 & 62. In other words, it's about the same amount of time CC was in repeats before the second batch of fresh CC episodes began on 1/14/2019.
Personally, I am glad to see at least two more weeks of CC repeats. I am working diligently to finish watching and compiling data on all of the BUZZR episodes. With only 17 left to go on my DVR, I should be able to finish before May 27, the earliest possible date for fresh CC episodes. A big shout-out goes to the YT account matrixwipe, which has been my "go-to" resource to watch any episodes that were incomplete on my DVR.

New schedule posted for May 27-31. The Halloween episode of Press Your Luck airs on May 31. Also, Buzzr skips two episodes of Password Plus with Debralee Scott & Wesley Eure (not sure if GSN played them).

Also, Buzzr skips two episodes of Password Plus with Debralee Scott & Wesley Eure (not sure if GSN played them). In addition, eight new-to-BUZZR Match Game 75 episodes will be shown 5/27 to 5/30, continuing where it left off from 494, skipping 495 and 503. |

What could be the reason for the two skips? They didn't have any spelling errors? I know that's the week of the spelling bee marathon.

Also, Buzzr skips two episodes of Password Plus with Debralee Scott & Wesley Eure (not sure if GSN played them).
I do recall seeing on YouTube a few years ago (not sure if the clip still exists), a small clip of an early episode of Password Plus with Debralee Scott's breasts nearly exposed. I do know this happened when Allen Ludden served as host, and the episode did air on GSN before (hence the original GSN watermark, implying a 2006 rebroadcast). The clip was uploaded in January 2012 - many weeks prior to when GSN acquired a limited run of 1979 era Password Plus on April 2 that year.
If Wesley Eure was Debralee's celebrity partner, wardrobe malfunction causing (borderline) breast exposure could justify the skip of at least one of the episodes on Buzzr, and this could imply that Fremantle takes screening episodes for TV-G approval very seriously, unlike GSN which may have tended to overlook even such small detail, if controversial.
Wesley Eure was Debralee’s partner. |

The Card Sharks (Perry) episodes that didn't actually air are on the schedule for the daytime of May 28 and 29, so let's see what happens.

So 290 of PYL is the last new one right now, huh? Hope we get the rest of 1984 by the end of this year. The pattern for PYL seems to be that new episodes are added to the regular rotation twice a year.
1355 of Match Game '78 is skipped. Not surprised.

As for the PYL/CS marathon, there's another 1986 episode to watch for: #639 from March 11, 1986, Zena/Robert/Ellen. It was the debut of Across the Board.

PYL 371 was the one they played on Facebook, right?
All the shows with fresh episodes end during the week of June 3, except for Match Game. Match Game returns to 78 episodes after the spelling week. Super Password stops at 246 and Supermarket Sweep ends at 1385 (just shy of the two eps they played as part of the Women's Day marathon.) Password Plus and Press Your Luck turn over. The morning of Wednesday, June 5 has the one episode of Match Game (1319) that they messed up and may fix.

So, are you saying Password + and Match Game 78 stop showing new shows on Friday June 7th? Is this the final day of "new" shows for these 2 programs?

It appears that we may not know about fresh $ale of the Century until at least later in June, as Buzzr's schedule lists episode numbers in the high 150s for the first full week of June in daytime, and Buzzr previously stopped at #167, the start of Curtis Warren's run.
It appears that Press Your Luck's rotation on Buzzr likely now starts at February 9, 1984 instead of January 1984. Considering the trend that Buzzr tends to air fresh episodes over a six-week period, I don't expect they'll be finishing up 1984/entering 1985 until at least the spring of 2020. But I am amazed at how fast it seemed to have aired the vast majority of 1984 so far.
As for the PYL/CS marathon, there's another 1986 episode to watch for: #639 from March 11, 1986, Zena/Robert/Ellen. It was the debut of Across the Board. I'd like to ask as well, are we also getting any "fresh" late 1985 episodes in the June 12 marathon? Are there any Eubanks' Card Sharks episodes airing in the marathon, and if so, what episodes are being aired? |

Weird schedule for Password Plus: BUZZR will show "new" episodes up through #184 on Thursday 5/30. Then they jump to #187 on Friday 5/31, skipping #185 and #186.
Then they hop back to #36 on Monday 6/3 -- which is one episode past where they originally left off on April 5th, when they showed episode #34 at the 8:00 p.m. slot, and then skipped all the way ahead to the "new" episodes, starting with #145.
However, Buzzr did show #35 during the 2:30 p.m. slot on April 1, out of order (the next episode they showed in that time slot was #11, on April 2).
So technically, they didn't skip #35, I guess -- just showed it at a weird time and out of order. Amazon Prime has #1 through #41, so my wife and I can watch #35 that way.
I wonder why Buzzr is skipping #185 and #186, the last two shows of the Debralee Scott/Wesley Eure week?
