Nanaged to screen the footage I have from another third tonight as well. Not a *lot* of Wheel in the next cluster, but what WAS there was generally useful. Little too late to edit the last post, but: New Airdates (12/5/88 to 3/10/89) Airdate/Ep #'s not in grid (LA/"A" Order and Satellite): February 1, 1989: S-1064 February 2, 1989: S-1065 February 3, 1989: S-1067 February 17, 1989: S-1082 (2/17/89 was also the last nighttime show of MG Kelly in first run, so this was his last ep seen in 'A' Markets. Charlie debuted the following Monday) March 2, 1989: S-1097 March 10, 1989: S-1093 LA Airdates match existing grid: S-1089, S-1094 S-1067 I have a newspaper clipping on James from the Baytown TX Sun that it aired on a Monday. I'm leaning towards the timing of it as 1/31/89 so I'm confused. I can't speak for your newspaper clipping, but in Los Angeles, S-1067 aired immediately prior to this episode of Jeopardy (And I've been working fairly closely with Andy Saunders of J-Archive on this - that is the Jeopardy airdate) - there's also a promo for a first run Arsenio Hall with Don King and Mike Tyson, same OAD (As well as some fairly narrowly overlapping movie trailers and sales): Not sure whether the newspaper is wrong, a preemption, whether some markets were still airing on alternate airdates into season 6 via bicycling and the different tape circuits, or what, but in Los Angeles, CA, S-1067 definitely aired 2/3/89 per the videotape. |

Now that I have a general idea of the tape dates that aired around end of Jan/beginning of Feb, I'll go through and see if anyone else from Dallas won $29k around that time. The newspaper said it was $29,450 Tex Guidry's grandson won however S-1067 has winnings at $29,150. Oy season 6 1989 is sooo complex! Several months I can't tell if there are 2 or 3 tape days rotating in any given week!

Wow! Thank you for all of this info! When I have a little free time I’ll go through it with Alex and will update things. Thanks so much again! Regarding the S-1000 conflict, as that might be the most "?" worthy data point so far (about to tackle the last third) The closing of S-1003 is on the same tape as J! nighttime episode 0939, which corresponds to the October 6th, 1988 airdate as per a (soon to be filled) gap on J! Archive. In the same episode, War of the Worlds is promoted as debuting "This Wednesday". Fast-forward ahead, and Jeopardy! 942, which is in the archive, OAD 10/11/88, has the same show promoted as "tomorrow" - and the close of S-1000 (as per your uploads), starting from the fee plugs and including past where yours cuts out, is what immediately precedes J! 942. Other markets might've been doing their own thing, but that's what KCOP in LA (who had the rights in LA until Fall '89) was up to I'm more inclined to believe S-1000 is 10/11/88 just for the fact the show has history of not been totally accurate with dates. Examples that come to my mind include date of Final Spin clip from April Fools 2010, the hall of fame slideshow having the Norfolk remote as May 2005, and labeling the Woolery Wheel intro from 3000 and 4000 as 1983. |
