Caroline Rhea Hosts GSN’s “Play It Back: Game Shows”

Posted by Alex Davis On August - 28 - 2008

We’ve known about these for a while, but just for safety we’ll talk about it again.  GSN is planning a whole series of Play it Back: Game Shows marathons, celebrating different games from the 70s, 80s, and 90s.  Each Sunday night in September involves a different decade’s shows followed by a special hour long documentary about the best and funniest moments.  On September 7th is the 70s marathon Dating Game, Let’s Make a Deal, and Match Game from 1PM to 7PM E.  September 14th has the 80s shows Card Sharks, Press Your Luck, and $25,000 Pyramid.  Finally on the 21st we have the 90s featuring Wheel of Fortune, Ray Combs Family Feud, and Regis Philbin Who Wants to be a Millionaire? for the millionth time.

Following each of those marathons will be an hour long documentary called Play it Back hosted by the popular comedienne Caroline Rhea, who previously appeared on shows like Biggest Loser and Celebrity Blackjack, not to mention hosting her own talk show which no one remembers.  Wait, I do!  On the 70s documentary, you’ll learn more about such shows as Match Game, Dating Game, Newlywed Game, Hollywood Squares and Family Feud. On the 80s, we have Super Password, Tic Tac Dough, Love Connection, Family Feud and Wheel of Fortune and finally on 90s night we see Wheel of Fortune, Hollywood Squares, Family Feud, Jeopardy and Who Wants to be a Millionaire?.

I feel I better answer this question: where are new PDFs?  We haven’t been sent them in a while.  No one’s gotten them in a while, actually.  GSN sends out Excel and PDFs.  We’ve only have Excel files and that only shows what programs are in what time slots.  No actual details are shown on those so there’s no point in releasing them.
