also stopped in the studio as guests during the run of the series. Format changes February 18, 1991–November 4, 1991 On February 18, 1991, Prime Time changed formats to something vaguely resembling a talk/variety show, with an in-studio audience. Vince McMahon and Bobby Heenan hosted this version of Prime Time, with Lord Alfred Hayes serving as an announcer. WWF wrestlers were frequent guests during this particular incarnation of Prime Time, which was similar to the WWF's old Tuesday Night Titans program. McMahon's last appearance as a co-host was the June 10, 1991, episode. In the weeks that followed, Gene Okerlund, Sean Mooney, and Gorilla Monsoon all filled in for McMahon as co-hosts. On the July 15, 1991, episode, Mooney became the official co-host of Prime Time alongside Heenan. The duo would remain the show's co-hosts until this format was discontinued after the November 4, 1991, episode. November 11, 1991–January 4, 1993 Prime Time'''s final format debuted on November 11, 1991, and featured a panel of WWF personalities (including, at various points, Bobby Heenan, Gorilla Monsoon, Jim Duggan, Randy Savage, Mr. Perfect, Jerry Lawler, Slick, Sgt. Slaughter, and Hillbilly Jim) participating in a roundtable discussion about the goings-on in the WWF. Vince McMahon served as host and moderator for the panel. This format appears to have been inspired by the PBS series The McLaughlin Group, which was growing in popularity at this time. The final episode of Prime Time Wrestling aired on January 4, 1993. Monday Night Raw'' replaced the show in its timeslot the following week.
