The network show had three minutes of commercials; in syndication, where it usually aired outside prime time, there were six. That meant some tinkering on the game and the panel introductions; also, the format was opened to allow demonstrations of the occupations, which also meant cutting the games off.
I never saw John Daly host, but I do remember watching Wally Bruner. I never really liked Bruner, and I think the reason was he seemed to take his role too seriously. Daly moderated the show, but seemed to have a sense of humor about what the show was about and what he was doing.
I love when he says "and it's 5 down and we'll go to Hal" because as much as I re-listen, it still sounds like he's saying 'hell'. Too funny
I would never have expected legendary Hal Holbrook to turn up here as a panelist.
During that first segment I wasn't sure if I was watching WML or QVC.
Wow, John Daly and his panel were SO much better!!!!!
Thanks for uploadng this. I love the syndicated WML and TTTT ans sure do miss seeing them on tv.
This syndicated version had B list mystery guests for the most part.
I wish they’d tell us when this was screened. I want to see how I can watch as many as possible.
The sindication seems to have more time restraints, so Wally had be more strict than Daley.
