So tonight's rerun of Great American Cities: Seattle from season 33 was replaced tonight by an America's Game rerun from this past season, episode 126. Was this the case everywhere, or just for my affiliate for whatever reason? Anyone know the reason for the replacement?

I think the Seattle episode was replaced by the season 37 episode in all markets. Mario mentioned it in the COVID-19 rerun schedule.

It was everywhere. This was discovered a week ago. buyavowel.boards.net/post/107893/threadIt was replaced because GAC: Seattle's Wednesday episode had a Mystery $10K win and they decided not to do the Mystery $10K Giveaway for this week, for some weird reason. |

Forget to check the hiatus rerun schedule before posting this, my apologies. Thanks for the answer.
Wonder why they skipped the giveaway for this week, yet they aired a pre-giveaway rerun with a 10K win and included the giveaway a few weeks back. As you suggested in the hiatus rerun thread they could've inserted the May 30 episode to replace it. At least now the September 9 rerun is an episode that was pre-empted on ABC affiliates.

Or they could have just not bothered adding the drawing, but then everyone would be confused, so they probably figured it was best to just scrap the whole episode.
Most contestants who reran during this hiatus actually received phone calls from Wheel alerting them of such. I feel bad for the three people on that episode, but since RNC is still running as I type this, Seattle is probably only going to get the Speed-Up onwards of tonight at best.

Awww. I was surprised that it was replaced. I was going to post something about it, but then I saw Mario already mentioned it the hiatus thread.
