*On some Game Show Network reruns (mostly old episodes of ''Jeopardy!'', ''Wheel of Fortune'' (excepting the 1988-1990 seasons), and ''Headline Chasers''), Charlie O'Donnell says "Columbia TriStar Television" over the fanfare. This is presumably done to blend in with the spiel at the end of the program and cover up the end reference to King World. On the 1994-95 and 1995-96 seasons of both shows, the original voice over is intact, simply plastering the 1994 logo with this logo. This variant was also attached on reruns of other Sony-owned game shows, such as the 1976 network version of ''Break the Bank'', and on a rerun of ''The $25,000 Pyramid'' finale on New Year's Eve 1999.
