The Official Password/Password Plus/Super Password Thread

I thought this week's Password Plus episode (46-50) was "teased" at the end of episode 45 as Mary Tyler Moore and Charles Nelson Reilly, not Uncle Bill. Did I hear things?

Yes, that's exactly what Alan said. Funny, I knew it was going to be Cullen so I didn't even notice he said CNR as my brain heard Cullen when he said CNR.

Thanks, dare! It's surprising Monday's offering didn't have Mr. Ludden leaning over the podium, saying, "Before we go on, I've got to explain something..." to clarify.

[dare2be]

He probably didn't even notice himself, and was probably thinking Cullen when he said CNR. By the time the next round of taping got underway, everyone probably forgot about it.

I mean, what's the difference from one pop-bottle glasses celebrity to the next?

I also wonder what the contestant said when the password "furry" was given. I'm thinking maybe it was a word associated with a cat. (you can use your imagination here.) There's also a week with Bill Cullen and Patty Duke (Astin) that had a series of password clues blacked off the screen and also clues muted out. It had to do with the 'mafia' and there was spectualation that one of the clues was "Sicily" or "Sicilian" and apparently NBC had to edit it out.

Why would they edit that out? Maybe they didn't want any trouble

They cut off the end of today's P+ episode by going to the credit scrunch too early.

For all you SP and Bill Cullen fans out there, Bill Cullen is on today. It was his last time on this version.

This happens everyday, but how much of then end was cut off? Did Allen even say goodbye yet

Allen Ludden said week's later they didn't intend to offend anyone. This week with Duke/Cullen will probably be on soon.

No, and that's what I meant by "cut off". As I was watching the scrunch, it didn't even look like he got to saying goodbye or even the password of the day by the time the credits were over.

I dislike it when this happens, but I've never thought it was too big of a deal. As long as GSN doesn't cut out, or the original tape doesn't cut part of the episode out, I'm fine with that. It's just when, for example during Match Game or The $25,000 Pyramid the sound goes out at times, or something is wrong with the beginning of the episode is what ticks me off

Friday's and today's airings of Super Password had audio problems. Staticy and the audio and video were off, which got worse as the show went on from each commercial break. Anyone else notice this?

Password Plus on Saturday morning had a couple issues with the tape, that I didn't notice a few weeks ago when it first aired. In the middle of the episode the screen kept flickering as if it was an actual VCR tape from someone's home

I noticed it too. Sadly, knowing GSN, they won't care at all. They are as lazy as ever.
