Did they air the Millionaire November 2000 Celebrity Week with Norm Macdonald yet? I believe they did.

Speaking of celebrities, a new show Blank Slate will premiere on January 8th. This will replace Hey Yahoo.

I discovered that GSN is not airing any other classic game shows during the holiday season this year. I am thinking last year's two-week period of classic game shows was a failure and didn't do well in the ratings.
Card Sharks with Joel McHale didn't do well in the ratings on ABC (though I too admit it was better than the Bullard disaster, but not as great as Eubanks' or Rafferty's versions in my opinion) but all or many of the episodes in that series did air on GSN for just one day - the day after Thanksgiving - in marathon form. How many episodes in total were produced for the ABC version of Card Sharks?

Hey Yahoo also didn't do well in the ratings in the 3:00 PM time slot. They stopped at Episode 62.

There goes another year for "DVR Theater" for What's My Line & I've Got a Secret in 2023. Were their any pros and/or cons of the episodes GSN picked out this year?

I definitely have never seen Little Richard on What's My Line? before. And I'm amazed GSN didn't show it after his death three years ago. Maybe they just now realized this episode was in the Fremantle archives all along.

Maybe they just now realized this episode was in the Fremantle archives all along. And we haven't listed Mr. Sandy Barron as a panelist either, what episode of the week was it and/or what was the VTR date of the week Sandy Barron was a panelist? Also, it's great to see GSN put back the panel intros for #162-2 that was VTR'd on August 24, 1972 that Buzzr chopped out despite the fact that Buzzr DID leave in the fee plugs of it. I don't think the Little Richard episode was apart of the regular rotation in 2000 but I could be wrong as when GSN was cherry picking the Week #s from Bruner's tenure when his tenure was airing regularly. Now Game Show Channel, if you recorded #162-2 from GSN, take your Buzzr recording of that episode and combine it with the GSN recording with the panel intros and you'll have a complete 23 minute duration.

Regarding the Johnny Mathis episode, what Week # or VTR date of What's My Line was it? Was it 1970-71 or 1971-72?

For Millionaire coming up, GSN once again skips the 2 Grammy Millionaire episodes (#5070-#5071 from February 11 and 14, 2001). They skipped those 2 episodes in many cycles past too.

For the Grammy week on Millionaire, these were the celebrities that appeared on 2 episodes: Mark McGrath (Sugar Ray) Lars Ullrich (Metallica) Gene Simmons (KISS) Gladys Knight (The Pips) Amy Grant Howie Dorough and Kevin Richardson (Backstreet Boys) Sisqo (Dru Hill) Emily Robison (The Chicks) Chaka Khan (Rufus) For the Top of the Charts edition of Millionaire, featuring Nick Lachey, GSN did not skip those episodes.

It is 1971 but what was the VTR date of that week's episodes? This is why when it comes to airing Bruner's tenure, the PDF schedules need to be released or for those that have COX cable to display the episode codes GSN is scheduled to air. Remember zap2it? The site that once included the episode production #s before the PDF schedules became the norm?

Did GSN ever skip the Rock Star edition of Millionaire in the past? I believe Huey Lewis was one of the musicians on that particular celebrity edition.

I noticed that an upcoming episode of Millionaire on February 7 is a 90-minute episode. What is special about this particular episode?
EDIT: Just did research myself. It is likely the final episode from the Classic TV edition. I remember that episode when it originally aired on ABC, as Sherman Hemsley of The Jeffersons was the only player left in the end, and I believe he likely struggled on several simple fastest finger questions.
