This is the last week for Split Second, both at 10AM weekdays and 10:30-11:30AM on Saturdays. It is bad enough dumb Body Language replaced Split Second in primetime Sunday nights, now Body Language will air at 10AM weekdays as well starting November 9. No other changes are being made to the weekday schedule. Replacing Split Second on Saturdays will be The Price is Right starting November 14.

I'm very happy about this news. :) Split Second, or at least the 1980s version, seemed sterile to me. Not that I hated it, but the show didn't keep my attention. Body Language is one of my favorites ... glad that it's on weekdays now.
I wonder what version of TPIR will show up. I'd like to see either 1970s version -- the daytime version with Bob Barker, or the nighttime version with Dennis James (later BB) -- or the 1990s syndicated one with Doug Davidson.

Does anyone know how many episodes were made available during the BUZZR run? If I recall correctly the show started running at the end of September last year, after about a month it was pulled from the weekday schedule only to be restored about a month or so later. According to the info available on the series there were 130 episodes made which equals 26 weeks so that would suggest each episode should have been seen twice. The episodes were repeated much more frequently than that, why didn't BUZZR just show the entire run since there were so few original episodes. I thought I saw some of episodes during the original run in the 80's and seem to remember Hall had stopped dyeing his hair.
