CW, those Feud 88 episodes slated for that Sunday are for the Syndicated series.
Even though the World Series rematch episodes were 0061-0065, I suspect they aired in November, for November Sweeps. At least one of the two Funny Men Vs. Funny Women weeks from 1988 (0056-0060) aired during the week of November 7, per Michael Pannoni's uploads.

That's kind of what I've figured, although I don't pat too much attention to Combs Feud. It would've been cool if they would've pulled out the Dawson World Series Rematch. Of course, if my only access to Buzzr continues like it has today, it doesn't matter what they air, I won't be able to enjoy anything they air.

When Blockbusters joins the weekday lineup on July 3 do we know if they will be picking up with fresh episodes? The furthest point Buzzr has made it up to is June 17, 1981. I'm hoping they get to Gene Visich's run that started on July 9, 1981. Not too many of Gene's episodes are on the trading circuit.

Saturday's is still in June 1981. They're fresh to me though, so I personally can't complain.

ttdkitrules , there's something I must address about Trebek's Double Dare: Episode #22 ended with Gary at $800 and in the middle of the Spoilers round. But it appears they've skipped to episode #24 with Gary having earned $5,500 and with Linda as his opponent. I noticed you DO have episode #23 with Gary continuing his Spoilers round. Is it from a 2000's or 1990's GSN rerun? I don't think episode #23 was skipped due to a running time issue, like what might have been the case with episodes #147-#148 of Press Your Luck.

The copy of episode #23 of Double Dare I have is a GSN rerun from the 2000s. The GSN logo is the black square with GSN in blue type at the bottom of the square.

Episode 23 of Double Dare likely got skipped when the series aired on Sunday nights, the same way Eps. S-008 and S-022 of $ale got skipped. It's because of having two airings on Sunday nights, and airing Episode 23 of Double Dare would result in reverting back to the premiere in the middle of a one-hour block, which would seem very awkward.

Also, regarding Buzzr's classics, there seems to be very little variety of new classics to launch on Buzzr as of lately. One fresh series that I know hasn't aired on Buzzr as yet is Bill Rafferty's Blockbusters, assuming classic TPIR is mostly banned due to fur coats, animal products and issues with certain cast members, and NBC is forbidding Classic Concentration from being rebroadcast. Wordplay and Trivia Trap can also be a candidates for a fresh new classic, since they were two of six choices in the Pick & Play Sunday night block.
Does anybody know what the chances of Rafferty's Blockbusters airing on Buzzr in the future are?

There's also versions of the same game shows, like Match Game PM.
I wanna see Match Game PM. That one's the best of all the versions IMO.

Is it bad I'm craving IGAS '72? I'd love to see that on Buzzr

^ If we're going in that direction, there's also WML? '68 and TTTT '69.

And my most favorite of all the Match Game versions is The Match Game/Hollywood Squares Hour, despite getting a lot of bad reviews. Of course, I was only 11 when it aired in 1984. Too bad it's never being rebroadcast again, but at least there's YouTube. I have a feeling Match Game PM might air on GSN before it airs on Buzzr.

The PYL episode with Becky winning a lot of prizes is airing right now, and they're airing the same cut as the GSN version. Emphasis on the drama; the CBS cut had emphasis on the Home Viewer Game. CardSharksFan8689 , still stand by your theory?

I'd like to see Match Game PM just because it hasn't been on GSN in ages or on Buzzr at all. I used to watch it on GSN when it was in prime time with Lingo every night. Even moreso, I'd like to see Match Game 90 pop up sometime on Buzzr, because it hasn't been on GSN in ages either, and it's a little different from the 70's version that runs hours and hours on end.
