User:Daniel Benfield/Buzzr Broadcasts

Buzzr is an over-the-air digital subchannel network devoted to airing classic game shows from the Fremantle archives, ranging from the 1950s-80s with the occasional tread into the early '90s. Unlike a certain cable network owned by Sony, Buzzr airs the shows intact - there's no crunching of the fee plugs and credits on this network (and no sped-up stuff, either), and if it's a black-and-white show from the 1950s-60s the original commercials tend to get aired as well. Like that other network, Buzzr would show the Ticket/Contestant Plugs as well during the show (if they or the fee plugs were their own segment mid-show, they almost never get aired, probably to make things a bit easier; and any plugs that involved calling in had numbers blurred out, so as to inform the viewers that the numbers are dead), though they appear to have stopped doing that for the most part.

I kinda decided to create this page on a whim, seeing a plethora of Buzzr-aired shows being uploaded, and as such this is pretty much a hodgepodge of stuff. Shows/franchises are arranged alphabetically; "Buzzr promos!" denote videos that have the network promos, while "Buzzr commercials" are those that have all the ads including said promos.

This page will mostly consist of full or near-full episodes; promos and clips won't really be here unless I decide otherwise, although there will probably be minor spoilers for consecutive or near-consecutive episodes.

LEGAL STUFF SO I DON'T GET SUED: I'm only linking to these videos, none of which were uploaded by me, for the purposes of research and as a public record. Footage ©1950-2017 Goodson-Todman Productions/Hatos-Hall Productions/Carruthers Company/FremantleMedia and associated entities.

AND ANOTHER THING: Buzzr sometimes airs E/I-fulfilling content (Stanley on the Go, Dog Tales, Animal Rescue, Animal Outtakes, Wild Wonders, Walking Wild, and Dragonfly TV) on weekends, for the first month or so after launch also showed a "Monster Buzz" block (Monster Garage and Monster House) on weekends, and in September 2017 added Richard Simmons' Dream Maker on weekdays. As this is a Wiki devoted to game shows and the aforementioned programs really aren't, they won't be here.

ALSO OF NOTE: Per this Facebook post by BuzzrPlus+, Fremantle/Buzzr provides two hours of "bonus" content weekly to affiliates to air on another subchannel in their frequency, including Bill Rafferty's Card Sharks (1986-87 syndicated) and Louie Anderson's Family Feud (1999-2002); for instance, KCDO in Colorado airs the shows on their primary channel on Saturdays at 4:00 PM. (Update: Both shows begin airing on the main channel starting October 30.)

AS FOR THE BIG OMISSION: Yes, it's been noted quite a few times that The Price is Right has never appeared on Buzzr, leading to the network having to air a Bob Barker-hosted Tattletales show to represent him in their March 2016 "Buzzr Brackets" programming. By all indication, the main blockade is CBS, though Barker may also be an issue given his issues with certain models and staff members (not to mention the whole "fur coat" thing).

Shows Seen Only As Clips
Not every program Buzzr has shown clips of has led to them airing full episodes of said show.


 * Split Personality (1959-60) - a brief clip, possibly of the 1959 pilot, appeared in promos for Buzzr's "Celebrating 75 Years of the TV Game Show" events in 2016.
 * Take Your Choice (1954 unsold pilot) - a brief clip, showing host Fred Allen and two contestants, appeared in promos for Buzzr's 2015 "Lost and Found" week.

"Buzz 'Til Dawn" promos have also shown a clip of Dennis James saying "Why don'tcha kinda relax, settle back, and enjoy yourself." The fact he has a cigarette in his hand indicates it's from one of his Old Gold pitches, which he did on Judge For Yourself (1953-54) and Two for the Money (1952-55). As far as I know, Dennis has never appeared on Buzzr otherwise.

On a side note, speaking of "Celebrating 75 Years of the TV Game Show", one of the contests mentioned through that was a "We Lost It, You Found It" sweepstakes, though as far as I know it never got off the ground. Still, the only thing that comes to mind with a title like that is something akin to the "Missing Episodes" movement among British television, where anyone who has footage of something that's officially considered "missing" is encouraged to get in contact with (for instance) the BBC.

Unsold Pilots
Aired by Buzzr during their "Lost and Found" weeks (September 2015 and/or September 2017).

Body Talk

Star Words

 * September 21, 1979 (#5: Jim & Barbara vs. Brad & Suanne {taped 9/79}; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Has an odd Buzzr error: they cut into the Bonus Stunt segment to air a promo, then begin the segment again.]


 * September 26, 1979 (#8: Brad & Suanne {Day 4 - $10,100} vs. David & Sally {taped 9/79}, with a really quick fourth stunt!; Buzzr promos!)

Blockbusters (1980-82)
NBC Daytime: October 27, 1980 - April 23, 1982 (371 episodes, taped at NBC Studios in Burbank)

Big thanks to Game Show Warehouse for much of the below placement. Unfortunately, since my usual practice of "list all player names when available" would reveal who won each match (given the show's format), those won't be here.

The aforementioned Game Show Warehouse has that info and a lot more, so it's definitely worth a look. :)

Standard gameplay format (debuted 11/24/80)
 * March 19, 1981 (#100!: Begins with Bob vs. Jeff & Alan {$31,500!}, continued from yesterday during Game 2)

Buzzr has also aired the July 4, 1985 show as part of its Independence Day programming in July 2015.

At some point or another, there was a full week-by-week celebrity list online, possibly on an old version of Adam Nedeff's website. Wish I could find that again... Still, a huge thanks to Jason Cranmer for much of the below placement.


 * Taped 10/9/83 (Pilot #2: Jenilee Harrison & Jon Bauman; ANNE-MARIE JOHNSON vs. Sam; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Different intro, slightly different set, a worse scoring system, and a different endgame that focuses solely on the word puzzles.]

Six-win/two-loss format (debuted 9/84); winnings limit upped to $50,000 (began 11/84)
 * January 22, 1985 (Marcia Wallace & Fred Travalena {taped 1984}; Sam {$250 + 1 Loss} vs. Beverly {$18,850! + 1 Loss}; Buzzr promos and a Ticket Plug! {alternate copy, no promos})

 * February 8, 1985 (Betty White & Jamie Farr; Dorothy vs. Bob)
 * [Tom specifically says it's Friday.]

 * March 25, 1985 (Martha Smith & Ed Begley Jr.; Diana vs. Bob, with a couple of things that didn't happen too often)
 * [Tom specifically says the airdate, then says "1985 just debuted about...day before yesterday, and we're almost through the month of March-but it just goes to show you time flies when you're having fun on Body Language."]


 * April 2, 1985 (Vicki Lawrence & Charles Nelson Reilly; Faith {$15,550 + 1 Loss} vs. Michael {$0 + No Losses}, with several notable events)
 * [Tom says that Vicki "is the lady who helped launch this show when we did a pilot of this show a year-and-a-half ago-it was you who got this on the air". I have to think the latter part of his comment refers to the premiere week, since Vicki wasn't on the pilots.]


 * April 15, 1985 (Jo Anne Worley & Anson Williams; Donna {$1,650 + 1 Loss} vs. Walker {No Losses}, with something that didn't happen often)
 * April 16, 1985 (Jo Anne Worley & Anson Williams; Donna vs. Walker)

Card Sharks (1978-81/1986-89)
Originally, Buzzr aired NBC shows from 1978, although they showed the July 4, 1980 episode as part of their Independence Day programming in July 2015 (and shown again on July 4, 2016). The Eubanks airings began with an '86 episode as part of the network's "Buzzr Brackets" programming in March 2016 before replacing the NBC shows on April 25, though the latter eventually returned when Buzzr Casino moved to Saturday nights. The Eubanks shows returned on February 6, 2017 before being replaced by Perry sometime in March and returning again on July 31 before being replaced again by Perry on October 2, which in turn was replaced by Rafferty starting October 30.

"Triple Play" bonus round, original board
 * Taped 5/11/82 (Pilot #2: Glenn {Champ} vs. Dautie; Buzzr promos!)

 * Taped 11/76 (Pilot #1: AMY ALBANI {Game 2 - $500} vs. Rowland, with Mike playing later; Buzzr promos! {alternate copy})
 * [Some audiovisual differences, but the main thing is that the Spoilers round has ten clues, with five Passes and five Gives. Alex notes that Amy has "won a match", which suggests that she bombed in her first Spoilers round.]
 * [Amy was later a big winner on Scrabble (April 1985, pre-Spelling format).]

 * [Has a full credit roll. Regarding the issue at 3:25:19, said portion of Game 2 is clearly missing, and it seems to be a fault with the master tape.]

Syndicated: September 19, 1977 - May 17 [September 6], 1985 (976 episodes, taped at ABC Television Center in Hollywood)

An episode from early 1984 (with the $300 goal) was aired as part of the "Buzzr Bowl" marathon.

The "Hollywood Walk of Fame" week from the final season (taped 1/20/85, episodes 9096-9100) aired during the week of June 20, 2016 to tie in with the new season of the ABC primetime version, which began on the 26th.

$300 goal, Lollipop Trees present (1983-84)
 * Early 1984 (Stavert vs. Moore; Buzzr promos! {alternate copy})

CBS Daytime: July 4, 1988 - March 26 [September 10], 1993 (taped at Television City)

Buzzr aired one-and-a-half episodes of Challenge as part of their 2015 "Lost and Found" week. They began airing 1988 episodes in February 2017, starting with the debut.

Original format (1988-92)

Originally, the question cards were white for the main game and yellow for Fast Money. Sometime between August 1 and September 5, 1988, the latter became a larger style with the show's logo on a red background.

On October 3, 1988, both cards became yellow with a red border and the show's logo in red, the latter returning to its standard size.

Opening logo animation now stops with the standard yellow-on-black style (began 7/25/88)

Fast Money card now larger and more "solid" (began 8/ or 9/88)

Standard question cards (began 10/3/88)

Challenge format (debuted 6/29/92; show now runs an hour)
 * Taped Early 1992 (Pilot #3: Del Campo vs. Campbell, with Kakadelas {$12,500} playing later {alternate copy, with some commercials})
 * [Has a very different format, and finally explains why the center score display expanded to four digits (contrary to long-held belief, it has nothing to do with Bullseye). Oddly, Buzzr's 2015 "Lost and Found" promos referred to this as "Ray Combs' first hour-long Family Feud".]


 * July 3, 1992 (Soap Stars Week, Finale: The Young & The Restless {Doug Davidson/Jess Walton/Victoria Rowell/Scott Reeves/Kristoff St. John} vs. Guiding Light {Melina Kanakaredes/Frank DiCopoulos/Amelia Marshall/Melissa Hayden/Monti Sharp}, with The Bold & The Beautiful {John McCook/Bobbie Eakes/Colleen Dion/Kimberlin Brown/Brent Jasmer} playing later; Buzzr promos!, first half only)
 * [First Question: "When a woman checks her appearance in the mirror, name something that she checks." (first half), "Tell me something critics review." (second half). Airdate and second half info per a full original-broadcast upload with commercials. My best guess as to why Buzzr has only ever aired the first half (which they labeled "AH011" for some reason) is due to the As The World Turns (one of the other shows playing this week) cast members who appear during the final segment.]

Syndicated, Daily: September 19, 1988 - May 27 [September 9], 1994 (taped at Television City)

Buzzr aired a Celebrity Impersonators show from 1993 as part of their 2015 "Lost and Found" week, followed by the "AFC Quarterbacks vs. NFC Quarterbacks" week (also from '93) in the "Buzzr Bowl" marathon.

For its 1st-Anniversary programming on June 1, 2016, the network aired Pilot A from 1987 and the first show of Season 2 from '89. A "Super Bowl rematch" week from 1989 was shown during Buzzr Bowl II (February 5, 2017).

Standard format (1988-92, Seasons 1-4)
 * Taped 8/87 (Pilot A: Perry vs. Mandic; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Slightly different intro and sound effects, the set's pretty clearly in midtransition between the Dawson and Combs eras, and a "RAY COMBS" placard is used during the intro (possibly inspired by Family Fortunes?). Also of note, there's a bunch of post-production edits to have Ray tone down some of his board calls, which probably wouldn't have been too noticeable had clips of the unaltered pilot not been online since April 2014.]


 * September 18, 1989 (#0196/Season 2 Premiere: Moore {Day 2 - $10,431!} vs. Fedail)
 * [Ray notes that the champs are back for the first time in a while, indirectly referencing the Summer hiatus.]

Bullseye era (began 9/14/92, the start of Season 5)
 * February 1993 (#0848/Celebrity Impersonators, Day 3?: Ladies {"Joan Rivers"/"Marilyn Monroe"/"Madonna"/"Shannen Doherty"/"Whitney Houston"} vs. Men {"Alan Alda"/"Wayne Campbell"/"Garth Algar"/"Rod Stewart"/"Don Johnson"}; Buzzr promos! {alternate copy})
 * [First Question: "Name a holiday when people have a wild time." To be honest, I'm not really a fan of these specials, although they've sometimes surprised me (the lady doing Joan here is pretty good). Gene's intro refers to this as "The Battle of the Almost-Celebrities", which could easily apply to many of the not-impersonating-anybody "celebrity"-inclusive shows these days. :P]

Syndicated, Daily: September 20, 1999 - May 8 [September 13], 2002

Here for completeness, but will start October 30.

He Said, She Said (1969-70)
Syndicated, Daily: September 15, 1969 - August 21, 1970 (245 episodes)

Six episodes from 1970 were aired as part of the network's "Love is On the Air" Valentine's Day programming in February 2016, though I want to say they've aired a couple more since then.

The first question of each show will be listed as a distinguishing characteristic, as pretty much all game show collections I've seen only give the dates and celeb names (something I've also noticed with listings for Tattletales and the all-celeb era of the 1979-80 Beat the Clock).

Second intro/theme
 * 1970 (Dick & Loretta Clark/Bob Zamfino & E.J. Peaker/Hal Holbrook & Carol Rossen/Bert & Anne Convy; First Question: "A sign that he's getting older."; Buzzr promos!)

It's News To Me (1951-53)
CBS Primetime: May 11, 1951 (Special)/July 2, 1951 - September 12, 1953

Buzzr aired the May '51 special as part of their 2017 "Lost and Found" week.

I've Got A Secret (1952-67)
CBS Primetime: June 19, 1952 - April 3, 1967 (done in New York)

A clip from the 1972-73 syndicated run, specifically of a firework shooting off during the first game of Episode #12, appeared in a promo for Buzzr's July 2016 programming.

Big thanks to I've Got A Secret Online for the below placement.

Garry Moore (1952-64)

 * October 16, 1961 (Bill Cullen, Betsy Palmer, Henry Morgan, Bess Myerson; Players: Donald Hulme, Fred Baldasare, ART LINKLETTER; has the original commercials and Buzzr promos!)

 * [Also has appearances by various staff members. Still has the second theme tune (the third and final theme debuted by 12/17/62).]

Let's Make A Deal (1963-77/1984-86)
Originally, the 1970s syndicated version was on the regular schedule, but this was replaced with the mid-1980s series on June 1, 2016 (although clips of the latter had appeared in promos since the network's launch).

NBC Daytime: December 30, 1963 - December 27, 1968

Buzzr has aired the 1963 pilot, hence the designation.

ABC Primetime: February 7, 1969 - August 30, 1971

The standard intro ("These people, dressed as they are...") debuted sometime between mid-April 1969 and about mid-October 1970.


 * February 7, 1969 (Premiere: First trader is Judy; first deal involves a Western Union Valentine's CandyGram {Big Deal: $5,752}; Buzzr promos!)
 * [While this version aired in color, this episode seems to have been preserved as a black-and-white kinescope.]

Standard intro (began by about mid-10/70)
 * December 26, 1970 (First traders are Mr. & Mrs. Lacey {taped 12/1/70}; first deal involves a $10,000 check! {Big Deal: $10,258})
 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 8:32 is the Fall/Winter 1970 one. One of three ABC primetime shows included in the first season of the syndicated run, and hence aired by both GSN and Buzzr. Sponsor list is shown in a kinda-burnt orange all-caps over the set.]

Syndicated: September 13, 1971 - May 28 [September], 1977 (281 episodes)

When this run began taping, the sponsor list had white words on a background of stripes; this was initially yellow and brown, which appears to have changed to blue and black early on. Sometime in 1972, this was redone to have the words in blue with a white background, all in the Curtain/Door #2 border; this remained through the end of the run, with a slight modification after the Curtains and Doors were redone in '74.

Also sometime in 1972, and definitely by #63/S (taped 12/14/72), the trading floor steps changed from a solid, kinda-pale yellow/tan color to a more reddish style with silver/gray "edges" on top, which remained until the move to Las Vegas for the final season.

Also when this run began taping, the logo had no "registered trademark" (®) symbol present and the distributor was ABC Films. In 1973, probably when Season 3 began taping, the former was added to the logo and the latter was changed to Worldvision Enterprises; sometime in 1974, the Worldvision logo added a "Not affiliated with World Vision International, a religious and charitable organization." disclaimer, as the latter had threatened to sue.

Hollywood, blue curtains in back (1971-74)
 * 1971 (First trader is Sandy; first deal is a Tastee-Freez gift certificate {Big Deal: $7,176}, with a great moment seen in blooper specials!; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 13:05 is the Fall/Winter 1971 one. May be #9/S, per GSN's advance schedule PDFs from 2008-09, which would explain why the sponsor list has yellow and brown stripes rather than the standard blue-and-black.]


 * 1971 (First trader is Betty; first deal is a choice between two items, beginning with "Ring or watch?" {Big Deal: $8,221}; Buzzr promos! {alternate copy, slightly longer})
 * [May be #14/S, per GSN's advance schedules. Has the white/yellow/brown sponsor list.]

Sponsor list changes to the standard white/blue/black style (began 1971)
 * 1971 (First traders are Marilyn & Harlan; first deal involves four wallets, one of which contains $1 and is hence worth a car {Big Deal: $9,452}; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 4:57 is the Fall/Winter 1971 one. May be #13/S, per GSN's advance schedules, though the sponsor list is the white/blue/black style.]
 * [During the second deal, one trader's sign has "Let's Deal" on the front and "No Strike" on the back, which leads to a rimshot-esque effect. This may be a reference to the ILWU Strike, which lasted from July 1971 to February 1972.]


 * 1971 (First traders are Connie, Jocelyn, & Mary; first deal is a stack of nine bills, three per person {Big Deal: $9,064}; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 17:14 is the Fall/Winter 1971 one. May be #24/S, per GSN's advance schedules.]
 * 1971 (First trader is Virginia; first deal involves the Money Dispenser {Big Deal: $8,062})
 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 1:07:37 is the Fall/Winter 1971 one.]
 * 1971 (Big Deal segment {$8,909})
 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 0:46 is the Fall/Winter 1971 one. May be #22/S, per GSN's advance schedules.]

 * [May be #23/S, per GSN's advance schedules.]
 * 1971-72 (Big Deal segment {$9,119})
 * [May be #25/S, per GSN's advance schedules.]


 * 1971-72 (First trader is Shari; first deal involves a box of Payday bars {Big Deal: $9,599}; Buzzr promos!)
 * [May be #26/S, per GSN's advance schedules. Monty notes during the first deal that "I did Let's Make A Deal in Las Vegas and we had to buy costumes for the chorus, and the costumes for 14 kids cost us $5,000. And you people make them for $3 apiece and it really kills me!"]


 * 1972 (First trader is Marcia; first deal starts with a $1,000 bill that might be fake {Big Deal: $9,350}; Buzzr promos!)
 * [May be #40/S, per GSN's advance schedules.]
 * 1972 (First traders are Kay & Olivia; first deal is Olivia making decisions for Kay {Big Deal: $8,444}; Buzzr promos! {alternate copy of Big Deal segment})

 * 1972 (First traders are Donna & Kris; first deal involves a stack of nine bills with $50 on top {Big Deal: $9,260}; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 3:00 is the Fall/Winter 1972 one. May be #44/S, per GSN's advance schedules. Still has the "solid-color" trading floor steps and white/blue/black sponsor list.]
 * [At one point, Monty talks to an audience member who said his golf was terrible. "You watched me on a television show? You're not supposed to watch me on a television show playing golf! I'm a pretty rotten golfer. ...Anyhow, I beat Lee Trevino, didn't I?" The namedrop of Trevino makes me think he's referring to Golf For Swingers, a short-lived syndicated entry from '72.]

Reddish/"silver-edged" trading floor steps, sponsor list becomes blue with white background and Curtain/Door #2 border (began 1972)
 * Taped 11?/72 (First traders are Roger, Joyce, & Pat; first deal involves three eggs, at least one of which is raw and hence worth $1,000 {Big Deal: $9,143}; "shaky-cam" upload, video is a bit blurry, ends as ABC Films credit scrolls onscreen)
 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 17:03 is the Fall/Winter 1972 one. May be #60/S, per GSN's advance schedules.]
 * [Monty notes that an audience member, who introduces herself as Sue Coleman, won the Senior California Beauty Contest for 1972 (per this article from 10/30/72, Sue became the first Miss Senior California Beauty the previous Sunday, specifically October 29). Monty then notes that the lady sitting next to her, who was also in the contest, is Jay Stewart's mother!]


 * 1972 (First traders are Darlene, Nancy, & Kay; first deal starts with $100 for each player {Big Deal: $8,912}, with one Box having a set of ducks that quack so loudly they give themselves away well before Monty has a chance to sell them!; "shaky-cam" upload, really loud cough at around the 10:50 mark, some relatively-loud talking during second part of Big Deal)

 * [Spiegel catalog shown at 17:32 is the Fall/Winter 1973 one. One deal involves oversized fortune cookies, and Monty's comments suggest this is an early appearance by them (if not their debut).]

Syndicated, Daily: September 17, 1984 - May 23 [June 6?], 1986

Buzzr's "package" consists of shows from the second half of Season 1: specifically, per Ryan Rinkerman's Season 1 episode guide, episodes 088-167. The show was later removed from the schedule with no explanation, but I get the feeling CBS doesn't want competition with their first-run Deal (which, coincidentally, I've always felt to be the weakest iteration of the franchise).


 * 1985 (#088: First traders are Rick, Diane, & Dorcas; first deal starts with each getting $400 {Big Deal: $9,046})


 * 1985 (#133/Geoff Edwards hosts, Day 4: First traders are Tina & Louie; first deal involves a Snack Pack and the three Curtains {Big Deal: $9,234})

Make the Connection (1955)
NBC Primetime: July 7 - September 29, 1955 (13 episodes)

Buzzr aired the August 4 episode as part of their 2017 "Lost and Found" week.

Gene Rayburn (began 8/4/55)

Match Game (1962-69/CBS, 1973-79)
Big thanks to MatchGame.org for much of the below placement.

NBC Daytime: December 31, 1962 - September 26, 1969 (taped in New York)

Buzzr has aired the 1962 pilot and an All-Star show from '64, both during the network's 2015 "Lost and Found" week (with the former also shown during the 2017 week), hence the designation.

CBS Daytime: July 2, 1973 - April 20, 1979 (1,439 episodes + 16 unaired, taped May or June 1973 - March 11, 1979 at Television City)

Pilot A and the Premiere were aired as part of the aforementioned 2015 "Lost and Found" week. The July 4, 1974 show aired as part of some Independence Day programming in July 2015, with another July '74 episode shown at some point.

Episodes 1-6 and 8-11 (July 2-9/11-16, 1973) were aired during the week of June 20, 2016 to tie in with the debut of the new ABC version on the 26th. From what I've read, Episode 7 (July 10) has always been skipped by GSN and was skipped by Canadian network Comedy Gold as well, so the fact Buzzr skipped it suggests that the master tape is damaged beyond repair (and has been for quite some time).

Aside from the below changes, one other major change in the early weeks was the addition of the "cash prize" sign for the Head-To-Head Match ($1000, $2500, or $5000) around July 30. The backing changed from tan to the standard black on October 29 (#0076).

On May 29, 1975 (#0471), the lights were changed from round numbers to square ones, adding space for a "1" so PM could show its top prize of $10,000. Interestingly, PM itself didn't begin taping until July 13.

1973
 * July 3, 1973 (#0002: Michael Landon, Vicki Lawrence, Jack Klugman, Jo Ann Pflug, Richard Dawson, Anita Gillette; Stanley at Super-Match, then vs. Trevor with Kaye playing later)
 * July 4, 1973 (#0003: Michael Landon, Vicki Lawrence, Jack Klugman, Jo Ann Pflug, Richard Dawson, Anita Gillette; Stanley vs. Kaye, continued from yesterday at Round 2 with Fil playing later; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Three changes are made: the Round 2 part of the question holder is now blue (previously orange, same as the other rounds), the Head-To-Head Match now has the player pick a celeb before Gene reads the question, and a commercial break is done before Gene signs off.]
 * [Video begins with the end of a 1985 Family Feud show; link is timecoded to skip it.]
 * July 5, 1973 (#0004: Michael Landon, Vicki Lawrence, Jack Klugman, Jo Ann Pflug, Richard Dawson, Anita Gillette; Stanley vs. Gary, with Sheri playing later; Buzzr promos!)
 * July 6, 1973 (#0005: Michael Landon, Vicki Lawrence, Jack Klugman, Jo Ann Pflug, Richard Dawson, Anita Gillette; Gary at Head-To-Head Match, then vs. Sarah with Amy playing later; Buzzr promos!)


 * July 9, 1973 (#0006: BOB BARKER, Arlene Francis, Richard Dawson, Michael Learned, Richard Thomas, Della Reese; Gary at Super-Match, then vs. Gray with Mary playing later and the main theme playing throughout the intro for some reason; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Bob holds up a TPIR pricetag during the intro. Gene introduces and briefly talks with each of the celebs, resulting in the first segment running just over three minutes. First episode with the pedestal to hold the Head-To-Head Match question.]
 * July 11, 1973 (#0008: Della Reese, Richard Dawson, Arlene Francis, BOB BARKER, Michael Learned, Richard Thomas; Gita {$600} at Head-To-Head Match, then {Game 2} vs. Nelson with Helaine playing later; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Preceded by the end of a Family Feud Walk of Fame syndicated show from '85 (link is timecoded to skip it).]
 * July 12, 1973 (#0009: Della Reese, Richard Dawson, Arlene Francis, BOB BARKER, Michael Learned, Richard Thomas; Gita vs. Helaine, continued from yesterday during Round 2 with Joan playing later; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Has a full credit roll.]
 * July 13, 1973 (#0010: Della Reese, Richard Dawson, Arlene Francis, BOB BARKER, Michael Learned, Richard Thomas; Helaine vs. Sylvia, with Beverly playing later; Buzzr promos, audio issues during first part of intro, but these seem to be on the master copy)
 * [Bob holds up a TPIR pricetag during the intro. Last episode with the Head-To-Head Match question holder's solid white backing (a red/orange portion was added), and the last with a silent celebrity-writing portion during the Head-To-Head Match.]


 * July 25, 1973 (#0018: Dick Gautier, Barbara Stuart, Jack Carter, Jo Ann Pflug, Richard Dawson, Shelley Winters; Jeff {Game 6 - $9,250} vs. Helena, with Donna playing later; brief video issues from 19:44-46 and around 21:50 {Buzzr logo remains stationary})

1974

Now You See It (1974-75)
CBS Daytime: April 1, 1974 - May 13, 1975 (308 episodes, taped March 1974 - May 1975 at Television City)

Buzzr aired three episodes as part of their "Lost and Found" week in September 2015: Test Episode #3, followed by the first two episodes of the series. The latter two were reshown during "Buzzr Brackets" in March 2016.

While the show was up for voting in the network's "Pick & Play" sweepstakes in October 2015 (which, oddly, included a screencap of the 1989 logo), it didn't finish in the top three, though it replaced Sale of the Century on Sunday nights beginning February 6, 2017 (the latter moved to the nightly "Prime Time Party" block).

Five-player format (April-December 1974)
 * April 1, 1974 (Premiere: Tony & Ilsa vs. Lannie & Bert, with designated champ Linda {Solo Round is at $5,000})
 * April 2, 1974 (Begins with Steve & Lynn vs. Pat & Ron; Buzzr promos!)

Three-player format (began 12/23/74)
 * Taped 11/27/74 (Test Episode #3: Susan {$1,000} at Solo Round, then Gordon vs. Helen with Donna and Diane playing later {Solo Round starts at $14,000}; Buzzr promos!)
 * [The last of three shows that were done to try out the slimmed-down/straddling format before going to air with it. All three also had the Bonus Word, which in the end just got tossed out with the format change.]

NBC Daytime: January 8, 1979 - March 26, 1982 (800 episodes + 1 unaired, taped at NBC Studios in Burbank)

The July 4, 1980 episode aired as part of Buzzr's Independence Day programming in July 2015. Four more episodes (February 5-8, 1979) aired during the aforementioned "Love is On the Air" marathon. The network has since aired nearly all of the first three months.

Allen Ludden (1979-80)

 * [Promo at 13:35 includes a Body Language clip from 1984 (the graphical setup shown was only used for the first few months or so), whereas Buzzr started their run of the show in January '85. I also get the feeling the Super Password clip near the end (of Convy saying "You bet your ass.") didn't actually air on TV.]

"CA$HWORD" logo enlarged to its normal size (began by 10/19/84)

 * [At this point, the set's neon lights no longer flash repeatedly for a victory in the endgame, as they did prior to this episode; I'm not sure why they stopped doing that.]


 * October 22, 1984 (Marcia Wallace & BILL CULLEN; Lisa at Super Password, then vs. Danna; Buzzr promos!)
 * October 23, 1984 (Marcia Wallace & BILL CULLEN; Danna at Super Password, then vs. Lance, with a moment at 10:45 that really shouldn't have been allowed; Buzzr promos!)
 * [Bert addresses said incident after the next commercial break: if the contestant who caused the incident ends up winning the game, the disadvantaged player will be brought back for the next game. If the disadvantaged player wins, then really no harm done.]

Season 1 (1985)

Originally, the endgame prize structure was $85-$195-$285-$390-$485-$610 (car)-$720 (all six prizes)-$830 (Lot). These were tweaked to the standard progression of $85-$175-$260-$340-$445-$530-$640-$750 on 1/28/85, likely to make everything past Level 1 a bit easier to actually get to.

TattleTales (CBS, 1974-78)
CBS Daytime: February 18, 1974 - March 31, 1978 (taped February 1974 - February 1978 at Television City)

While starting out as a revival of He Said, She Said, this show quickly went in its own direction (i.e., all-Quickies), hence why they're separate.

The first question of each show is listed as a distinguishing characteristic, as pretty much all game show collections I've seen only give the dates and celeb names (something I've also noticed with listings for He Said, She Said and the all-celeb era of the 1979-80 Beat the Clock).

Buzzr aired four shows from Week 17 as part of their "Love is On the Air" Valentine's Day programming in February 2016. They've also shown a 1976 episode sub-hosted by Bob Barker as part of the network's "Buzzr Brackets" programming in March, probably because they (as of this writing) can't get ahold of the show he's well-known for.

Big thanks to MatchGame.org and (mostly) Ian's Game Show and Classic TV Site for much of the below placement. Note that per the latter, for a couple of lengthy periods in 1974 CBS aired two weeks of shows by alternating between them from day to day (for instance, Week 13 aired May 14, 16, 20, 22, and 24 while Week 14 aired May 15, 17, 21, 23, and 27).

For the sake of my sanity, I'll be going by what I'm sure were the intended airdates rather than CBS' wonky style.

Original format (February-June 1974 {first 18 weeks})

For the first two weeks, Jack Clark's intro began with "Everyone in our studio audience in Television City in Hollywood has a money stake...", and Bert introduced the three seated on the left-hand side of the set before those who were sitting at center stage. The standard intro debuted on March 4, with the announcer's intros of the couples removed on June 10.

When the show debuted, the monitors' borders were all green and the celebrity nameplates were black-on-orange. The standard forms of both debuted in May.

A few episodes, particularly during the last couple weeks of this format, were special "all-Quickie" days.


 * February-March 1974 (William Shatner & Marcy Lafferty/Warde Donovan & Phyllis Diller/Orson & Carolyn Bean {taped 2/74}; First Question: "It happened in a car."; Buzzr promos! {alternate copy))
 * [From Week 2 (February 25-March 1). While there's video issues at a few points, the Buzzr logo remains stationary.]

Jack and Bert's intros standardized (began 3/4/74)
 * March 25, 1974 (#0026: Allen Ludden & Betty White/Chuck Woolery & Jo Ann Pflug/Bill & Ann Cullen {taped 3/17/74}; First Question: "It happened while you were dating."; Buzzr promos!)
 * [From Week 6 (March 25-29).]


 * April 8?, 1974 (Gary & Barbara Crosby/Pat & Marjorie Harrington/Ken Berry & Jackie Joseph; First Question: "A story involving in-laws."; Buzzr promos! {alternate copy with commercials, ends during final segment})
 * [From Week 8 (April 8-12).]


 * April 1974 (Alejandro & Joyce Rey/Bobby Van & Elaine Joyce/Orson & Carolyn Bean; First Question: "A time you were embarrassed."; Buzzr promos! {alternate copy})
 * [From Week 9 (April 15-19).]

Monitors' borders become color-coded (began 5/13/74); nameplates become white-on-green (began 5/20/74)
 * May 1974 (Jerry Stiller & Anne Meara/Greg & Lee Morris/Dick Gautier & Barbara Stuart; First Question: "Your first date."; Buzzr promos!)
 * [From Week 14 (May 20-24).]


 * May 1974 (Glenn Ford & Cynthia Hayward/Orson & Carolyn Bean/Lee Bernhardi & Janet Lennon; First Question: "It happened away from home."; Buzzr promos!)
 * [From Week 15 (May 27-31).]


 * June 1974 (Chad Everett & Shelby Grant/David & Cheryl Ladd/Jack & Roxanne Carter; First Question: "A time she wanted to clobber you.")
 * [From Week 16 (June 3-7). Has a couple of rare events, one of which (a technical malfunction with one of the buttons) may well have only happened this one time.]

"All-Quickies" format (began 6/24/74)

The buttons were removed by July 15, 1974, since they no longer had any relevance to the game.

On July 15, 1974, all instances of the "ding" sound were changed to the standard CBS ding. Sometime between late November 1974 and early September 1975, the directing was altered slightly to have the spouses shown on the monitors all at once before Bert introduces the first one; previously, they appeared one at a time as he introduced them.


 * July 1974 (Bobby & Julie Troup/Bill & Rona Barrett/Dick Gautier & Barbara Stuart; clip of a question about Playgirl, with an amusing moment!)
 * [From Week 20 (July 1-5). Question is "Let's pretend for the moment that you're the editor of Playgirl magazine. What man would you pick for the next month's nude centerfold?"]

All instances of "ding" sound change to standard CBS ding (began 7/15/74); buttons removed from monitors (began by 7/15/74)

Big thanks to The Goodson-Todman "Big 4" Game Show Index and the episode guide at the Mark Goodson Wiki for some of the below placement.

Original rules: "free guess" by each panelist for civilian contestants, Mystery Guest questioning done like the civilian rounds

The "free guess" was basically a wild guess with almost no info to go on, although the earliest years saw panelists have players do things like walk with books on their head. While some played their guess for laughs, usually bouncing off a prior guess, on about nine occasions (see here for the six surviving instances) a panelist did luck into the correct answer, resulting in the contestant automatically getting the $50 and leaving without much further conversation.


 * January 16, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, Robert Q. Lewis, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf; Players: Sam Nadler, Anna Cecealci?, Esther Williams; has the original commercials and Buzzr promos, audio/video goes out of sync for the last part of Game 1)
 * January 23, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf; Players: Nicole Germain, Alice Crisafulle, Dennis Day; has the original commercials and Buzzr promos!)
 * [Mention is made of the French-Canadian version, Chacun son Metier, which ran from 1954-59 on Radio-Canada (a TV station). Of note, a guest panelist joins the regulars for Game 2, seated to Bennett's left.]


 * February 6, 1955 (5th-Anniversary Show: Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, Arlene Francis, Sam Levenson; Players: Patricia Finch {the show's first-ever contestant!}, Ruth Whitney, Pearl Bailey, Eunice Blackie; has the original commercials, Buzzr promos, and a Contestant Plug, minor glitchiness at a few points)
 * February 20, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, Arlene Francis, Ezio Pinza; Players: Arthur Berk, F. Henry Burkhardt, Dorothy Lamour; has the original commercials and Buzzr promos!)
 * [Arlene notes that Ezio is filling in for Bennett.]


 * March 27, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, WALLY COX, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf; Players: Charles Hume, Max Fleischman, Tyrone Power, Jack Syke; has the original commercials and Buzzr promos! {alternate copy, audio is a bit low})
 * [Dorothy notes that Wally is filling in for Fred. Unfortunately, he's really hard to watch here, as he seems to be derailing things intentionally - especially in Game 4, where his questions take up more than half of the remaining time and cause Arlene to point out that he hadn't been listening to John. (Compare to someone like Groucho Marx, where the derailing and "play for laughs" mentality was a well-established part of him.)]


 * April 3, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, Robert Q. Lewis, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf; Players: Edle Jariren?, Eugene White, Fred Astaire, Lillian Saul; has the original commercials, audio is a bit low)
 * [John pronounces Edle's last name like "Idlesen", even though it doesn't really look like it.]
 * April 10, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf; Players: Amelia Adler, Celia Abrams, Rhonda Fleming, Ben Burley; has the original commercials, audio is a bit low)
 * [Oddly, the panelist intros go from right to left.]

"Free guess" rule removed, standard Mystery Guest questioning rules debut (began 4/17/55)

Civilian rounds are now a bit quicker, and the Mystery Guest rounds more varied (the panelists now ask questions in turn regardless of the answer). The show still wasn't the well-oiled machine it's generally known for being, though - that only came with the removal of the "walk of shame" (the civilian contestants walking in front of the panel before sitting down next to John) in May 1956, at Arlene's insistence.


 * June 19, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, BETTY WHITE, Bennett Cerf; Players: Jack Adam, Carolyn Weinberg, Arnold Stang, William Gunn; has the original commercials and Buzzr promos!)
 * July 10, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, JACK PAAR, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf; Players: Dudley Woodman, Steve Nozeleski?, Sheree North, Jack B. Corn; has the original commercials, Buzzr promos, and a Contestant Plug!)
 * [Per Dorothy and John, Jack is filling in for Fred, who's out sick.]


 * September 4, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf; Players: James P. Mitchell, Rose Kouzouzakis?, Jean Pierre Aumont, Uani Maris; has the original commercials and Buzzr promos!)
 * October 16, 1955 (Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf; Players: J.L. Goldberg, Alfred Masehino, Tommy & Jimmy Dorsey; has the original commercials and Buzzr promos!)
 * [Dorothy notes that Fred is back after an absence. Fred plugs the home game, and later namedrops The $64,000 Question.]

NBC Daytime: December 29, 1986 - September 4, 1987 (taped at NBC Studios in Burbank)

Clips were used in promos for Buzzr's "Pick & Play" sweepstakes in October 2015, as it was one of the shows up for voting. The show finally made its way to the regular schedule in September 2017, with the pilot airing during "Lost and Found" week.

This one kinda surprised people, but it makes sense given one of the production companies was Scotti-Vinnedge, the latter being future Fremantle head Syd Vinnedge.
