Supermarket Sweeps Coming To Buzzr in 2018 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

KRW · 12-01-2017, 11:49 PM

Well I decided to take a look on Buzzr's website today for the hell of it. I saw that they have a advertisement for Supermarket Sweeps coming in 2018.

As a huge fan of the show. This delights me to no end. Even if it the original run, and not the later reboot most associate it with.

Buzzr is gonna have the original 1960's version of Supermarket Sweep in 2018? How exciting this news is because I knew very little about the original Supermarket Sweep and I didn't know that it originally debuted in the 60's. If the original Supermarket Sweep reruns are a success for Buzzr maybe GSN will add the Lifetime version of Supermarket Sweep that I watched as a kid. Here's another amazing fact about the 60's version of Supermarket Sweep that you may find shocking to know. Supermarket Sweep became known as The Honeymoon Race at the time of it's finale in the 60's. It's nice that Buzzr is adding some nice reruns of game show classics to their lineup because it would cool to see. I sure do wish I had Buzzr on Direct TV just to see the classic game shows

I don't have it either unfortunately.

I answered this question once before in the other topic mentioning Supermarket Sweeps. I'll answer it again though. Yes, I only watch Japan and worldwide Indy wrestling nowadays. I just can't get into WWE anymore.

It's not a 100% confirmed that they acquired the original run and not the 90's/2000s era. Looking at the ad more it shows the later years in the background. So there's a chance it's the run we're most familiar with. Until Buzzr announces what version it is. Everything is pure speculation till then.

I am looking forward to this. Its the David Ruprecht version.

I'm not really looking forward to that show if my cable does carry Buzzr

I remember asking but I forgot to look for a response. The reason why I ask I ask is because your avatar has The Bullet Club.

The thing about Supermarket Sweep is that I thought that the original airings were lost and the only ones available were the David Ruprecht episodes.

So the version of Supermarket Sweep that Buzzr is gonna air is the David Ruprecht version on Lifetime that I grew up with. I do wonder why Buzzr was chosen to air Supermarket Sweep rather than GSN. Is it because Al Howard Productions had a contract with Buzzr to air the episodes of Supermarket Sweep? I do wish I had Buzzr just so my mom and I could watch Supermarket Sweep again

I wish I could do the same with my mom. It was one of the things we bonded over.

Yup, the modern day nWo if you ask me. You can always PM me if you wanna talk wrestling.

I'm not completely sure if it's one of those lost gems or not. I'd love to see the original version either way. Though I'm perfectly content with the David Ruprecht hosted era.

Its because Freemantle bought the rights to Super Market Sweep and Freemantle owns Buzzr.

With the reboot in the works. It makes me wonder if it'll be a Buzzr exclusive or go to syndication.

mets82 · 12-04-2017, 09:30 PM

KRW, I will PM you about wrestling.

I looked on Wikipedia, I think,(take that for what it's worth) and they said that the original black and white versions of Supermarket Sweep were wiped out and erased.

I'm really hoping that's not the case of the original run. I know countless others and myself would love to see just one episode of it.
