Merv Griffin: Post-Mortem Tributes For $500, Alex
While some of us are still fixated on TMZ's farewell to Merv Griffin,
it's worth noting that another three-consonant entity, GSN, is offering
its own perhaps more appropriate sendoff: 10 hours of classic game
shows he created. On Saturday from 10-3 ET, GSN will run 10
episodes of "Wheel of Fortune" including Vanna White's debut
appearance. Sunday during the same hours GSN will run "Jeopardy,"
including the big million-dollar extravaganza. In the wee hours Sunday
night, GSN will also offer up some classic Merv during its B&W
hours. Griffin was one of the celebs who helped with GSN's ceremonial
switch-on in 1994.
