I'm not quite sure I can stand YEARS more of the current schedule, sans-classics. :(

Yet Hollywood Squares is scheduled Weekends at 9am starting this Saturday, throwing that logic away. ;)

I doubt Password will be gone for good. Look at Pyramid. "The $25,000 Pyramid" was gone for YEARS…and, it came back. Same with Card Sharks. I'm sure it'll rotate.

As for the marathons, I agree with the previous posts…they HAVE to bring back classics. The Feast of Favorites was something I looked forward to every year. So, seeing marathons of recent stuff is extremely disappointing.

Y2Play! Was that the one hosted by Charles Nelson Reilly? We got to see the last episode of Jeopardy 2.0 . I thought the best was the Halloween failed pilots sepcials.

I just read what you wrote and got hit with a bad stomach ache. Its Nickelodeon all over again. They take away the good shows, get rid of this and that, add a bunch of nonsense and within a 24 hours day we get 8 hours of 1 show. O joy

I'm kind of surprised this was not mentioned in a post here on Buzzerblog, but yes, GSN will be getting rid of all versions of Password. Yesterday was the last time they will air Password Plus and Super Password. On December 7th, B&W Password will be replaced with B&W I've Got A Secret. And to add to that pain, this will be the new Weekend Schedule:

9:00am: Hollywood Squares (Bergeron)
9:30am: Whammy!
10:00am: Chain Reaction (Lane)
10:30am: Family Feud (John O'Hurley)
11:00am: Newlywed Game (Wilson)
11:30am: Catch 21
12:00pm: 1 vs. 100
1:00pm: Deal or No Deal
2:00pm: Deal or No Deal

Weekends Only:
3:00AM: Catch 21
3:30AM: Millionaire (Vieria)

Do we really need to have a "Family Feud" network? If GSN can't afford to show more than a handful of shows, just fold already and see if Hasbro will pick up some of the favorites. I realize that Fremantle isn't exactly making the classics affordable, but Jeezus! Either "get in the game" or get OUT already!

And no Dick Clark Pyramid marathon on New Years…on a network co-owned by the company that owns the rights to most of the versions produced?! That's not just wrong…that's SAD!

I was just on Wiki, and I don't know if its true or not, but on the 28th of November, GSN is getting rid of ALL versions of Password. Now I rarely watch GSN except for Password, Match Game, and some other shows on rare occasions on GSN. But now GSN is like Nick, they get rid of all the good shows for like 8 hours of repeats. When Password(s) leave the air, whats the time slot gonna be filled with?…………… Think Like A Cat? :-S

But yeah, speaking of the marathons, I'm not watching. It went from "Feast of Favorites" to "Feast of 1 Show For 24 Hours". Can we please get back the show that were on back when the channel started back in '94? Bring those back for the marathons. That will be a really good change from whats on now. And who thinks, maybe one of the old shows will be a hit during the block that they bring it back for the 2010 schedule, but as a new series.
