Jul 18, 2008 - How is it, then, that GSN seemed to have quite a few B&W Passwords if they were all destroyed?
recordman64 Says:
Jul 18, 2008 - ABC would have them? I thought Goodson-Todman would have had the rights...so Fremantle has nothing in their archives?

Jul 18, 2008 - there was a show called "before they were stars". they had a segment of people on game shows before they became famous. One of the people that was on one of those segments went on to become Naomi Judd. this was an abc show, so either freemantle has more eps than they are letting on or ABC does

Jul 19, 2008 - BEcause, as i said earlier, i heard that someone made B&W Copys of the episodes!
recordman64 Says:
Jul 19, 2008 - OK...I should have read your comments a little more carefully. Sorry!

Jul 31, 2008 - the black and white ones gsn has are the nighttime version and somehow, not as many of those were lost
recordman64 Says:

Aug 9, 2008 - TRICK.....MISCHIEF!! So easy when the answers are given backstage beforehand, as they are with all quiz game shows.

Aug 16, 2008 - This is what replaced Dark Shadows after ABC pulled the plug on the show. I heard that there were people protesting on the show. I don't know if there is any truth to that, but I read that people weren't happy about it.

Aug 20, 2008 - Why did GSN air this rarity?
NJNoob Says:
Aug 23, 2008 - In honor of Brett Somers's death.
Hondo20132 Says:
Aug 24, 2008 - Do you think they'll reair this during their "Tribute to the 70's" in early September.

secondchance1977 Says:
Sep 5, 2008 - Ah, If this was a B-E produc. you could say that in the 1950's, but this was 1973! They had LAWS about giving away answers, and MG-BT never participated in that nasty sport!
secondchance1977 Says:
Sep 5, 2008 - I hope so!
Hondo20132 Says:
Sep 5, 2008 - Well, they will air Michael Larson's PYL reign in 9/14/2008. I'll tell you that.
Hondo20132 Says:
Sep 6, 2008 - Go back to the '50s and '60s!

Sep 7, 2008 - how do u kno
Hondo20132 Says:
Sep 7, 2008 - During a promo for the '80s marathon, they showed a split-second of Michael.
secondchance1977 Says:
Sep 21, 2008 - Dosnt The Hollwood Squares Old Set and the Password Plus Set have some sort of resemblance? The hosts areas look awfully the same.
behemoth8504 Says:
Sep 21, 2008 - Those were aired on CBS and CBS was far less prone to erasing and reusing the tapes unlike ABC back in that era. Its sad; I'd have loved to see this rendition of Password air on GSN...
gameshowluvr86 Says:
Oct 31, 2008 - NBC is so full of it... Just... UGH!
AdamStabelli666 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - Password one of the greatest game shows of all time. Thank you Bob Stewart for creating such a legendary show that stood the test of time.
kes1963 Says:
Jul 18, 2008 - I think there is more episodes out there that ABC has but arent saying
