Pavan, if everything I've been told is to be believed, TJW and Combination Lock are already dead in the water, and won't be sold. Deal is on the backburner due to some host related issues plus fears of overkill, but there's a big push within NBCUniversal to get the show out for Midseason 2007-08 anyway (Sort of similar to how the syndicated Weakest Link debuted in January 2002).

Temptation has already sold to the Fox O&O MyNetworkTV affils in about a dozen-and-a-half key markets, and in other markets FOX affils - particularly those operated by Sinclair, among others - will probably fall in lock-step, given that 20th will be distributing the show (It's production is being handled by FremantleMedia - producers of Family Feud and The Price is Right)

Crosswords, while being handled by an independent studio, *is* a Merv Griffin Production - as such, it's odds of clearing have doubled - because he's Merv friggin Griffin. Merv elected not to go through Sony in order to make more money off the show himself, should it be a success.

There are a few other shows that got added to the for-sale roster in the game show genre at the last second, including "Guess Who?" (produced by a company called Distraction, who did a remarkable pilot for GSN called Casino). TVWeek also reports a show called Laugh Off.

I'll gladly gush more over any of the shows that do get picked up (I'm already glowing over Temptation - which in a previous life time was known as $ale of the Century, one of my favorite game shows).

When IS NATPE start

[Brad]

Why is Tribune handling Family Guy instead of Twentieth Century Fox? Is it part of their deal with Cartoon Network/TBS/Time Warner?

[Pavan]

AKA: Whoops! 20th Century Fox is handling it. Tribune owned stations though have bought it. My mistake.

Tribune isn't distributing FG - FOX is. But the Tribune stations will be airing the show in syndication.

Game Shows:
Let's Play Crosswords, now titled "Let's Do Crosswords", has been cleared for the majority of markets in the country.

Temptation's clearance level was 96%, IIRC.

Deal or No Deal is now scheduled for 2008.

The Joker's Wild and Combination Lock (they were separate show, Pav) have been shelved with no plans to air.

This schedule should include something to replace the second Reba airing to reduce overplaying.

On another note, it looks like WPIX is getting a lot of new programming. Does anyone know what new programs WWOR will get?
