On this date, NBC replaced "Go!" with "Hot Potato" hosted by Bill Cullen at 12 ET, 11 CT/PT.

Some sources suggest that "The New Newlywed Game" hosted by Jim Lange ran for just one week on ABC from February 13-17, 1984 at 11 ET, 10 CT/PT, but another source says it ran through June 1, 1984. Which is correct? A promo found on youtube suggested that it was for just that week since it was the week of Valentine's Day.
