Yep, Thursday's schedule goes back to 1984, presumably the beginning. My hopes have been dashed. With Gloria Loring and Pat Sajak as the celebrity players? It's kind of weird how we have not seen any fresh content since January, but given Buzzr presently airs about 100 episodes of the long-running series and want to give them enough cycles, that may explain the delay on fresh content. At least Buzzr is airing fresh episodes of The All-New Let's Make a Deal from 1985 in the evenings.

Must not be this week. Match Game yesterday at 4:00 was still recycled.

I heard Child's Play has been refreshed. Is that right?

I also discovered on Buzzr's schedule just now that, unless I missed something, Buzzr dropped Jim Perry's Card Sharks from the schedule, and putting emphasis on the early-1986 Bob Eubanks run. I did read somewhere that Tattletales is also on hiatus. 70's era Let's Make a Deal is replaced with 1985 episodes. Could this be a sign of more existing shows going on hiatus, and replaced with something different (i.e. replacing Dawson's Feud with Combs' version, or a different classic altogether)?
I wonder if Buzzr only builds their existing shows to 100 episodes at a time, airs so many cycles, and goes on hiatus afterwards, replaced with something different?
As for Child's Play, as of the latest episode they presently air, how far away from Version 2.0 of the end game are they at?
EDIT: Tattletales is still on Buzzr's schedule.

The 1985 LMAD has been on since June. That started around the networks 1 year anniversary. Looking at the schedule Tattletales is on every night I saw.

As for Child's Play, as of the latest episode they presently air, how far away from Version 2.0 of the end game are they at? Based on Jason Cranmer's list, a little over three weeks (latest show is from March 30, 1983; Turnabout debuted April 25).

Buzzr advertising a new, viewer-chosen schedule and new episodes starting 29 August. I actually wonder if fresh Press Your Luck episodes may start to air on August 29th, continuing further into February 1984? If so, I sense a pattern: Fresh content started in: June 2015 (launch) Late-June 2015 (roughly one month) September 2015 (just over 2 months) January 2016 (roughly 4 months) August 2016 (roughly 8 months) Does it seem to be a trend that the gaps of time between new episodes doubles each time? If so, this may mean no more fresh content after that until September 2018. Oh, boy. Well, I can thank my lucky stars I have GSN. At least they're airing later episodes of certain series that GSN focues on that Buzzr may likely not show for quite some time, plus I have previously aired GSN episodes of shows I enjoy and they are on my external hard drive right now, slowly being added to CD-ROMs.

I sincerely doubt they will run the same shows for over the next year.

I did hear from a Facebook contact via instant message that they may be airing fresh uncut Press Your Luck episodes as well as fresh episodes of Cullen's Blockbusters.
If I were to safely guess, I bet Press Your Luck will likely continue from #102 and continue through early-March 1984, the latter episodes being the earliest episodes that were part of GSN's original lease from 2001 to 2009. Buzzr seems to add 20 episodes to the rotation at a time.

Still no new Match Game episodes at 4:00 as far as I can tell.
