On today's MG76 10:30AM EST airing, a scroll across the screen promoting the thrice weekly video game block appeared.

And a promo about the female wraparound host is also airing--since I was half-asleep when it came on, I can't tell you her name or much about the promo, other than it was a GSN Paintbox/Dubiner spot with no live-action in it.  Oh yeah, and Neal Ross' voice was in it, too.  And Woolery *did* leave \"Wheel.\"  :)

 Ain't seen it yet, but I don't think I'll be very surprised. They say things happen in threes, and we've had Icey and Mary Carey already.

As for the block itself....yay? :-P

Gee, for one of the biggest programming changes in GSN's history, you'd think they be jamming promos down our mouths...

 It's really not all THAT big, but you'd never know it based on the Chicken Littles we have around these parts...

I'm not sure they need to promote it to people who already watch GSN.  In order to bring new viewers to GSN, Sony should promote it where Playstation games are sold, buy ads in video game magazines, high school newspapers, etc.  Maybe if the new viewers \"come to the table\" for this show, they'll consider staying around for the main course.
