Notable for GSN, at least for most of the run, airing Winston-sponsored ''Secret'' episodes during this timeslor; prior to this, the Winston-sponsored episodes were [[Missing Episode|banned]] due to the heavy use of said Winston logos on-set. The ban went back into effect around 2004 when the block itself was reduced to two games aired in regular 30-minute timeslots, and the "Overnite" title slowly phased out.

For the most part, episodes would be run in order except for special theme weeks, or if a noted celebrity died. In such a case, episodes featuring that person would run in the time slots with a special slide noting the passing aired directly before and after it.
