Somehow this ends up being my fault. Mark my words.

Of all of the worthless information in that post, this was about the least worthy of nitpicking. It's a show being aired on GSN, therefore they seem to think (and I emphasize *seem to think*) they need to clear appearances. Whether you or anyone else thinks it fits the definition of a "game show" is utterly immaterial.

I would think in an era when everything and everything is rerun into the ground, having rerun clauses in any contract has become a standard.

That's exactly where I am.  Since game show reruns were an almost unheard-of concept in the 70s and even 80s, there were probably no provisions for them in the standard contracts the artists signed back then.  I doubt very seriously that DWTS or any modern show has this problem.
