If you could pick one show, and only one show

I'd go with Wheel, but this time, the daytime episodes.  We probably wouldn't see many, if any, Woolery episodes, and Rolf's run would be a slim chance considering how he feels about his run on the show (Sorry, Mr. Raygor).  But having just Sajak and/or Goen would be better than nothing at all.

Rafferty Card Sharks. Enjoyed seeing the episodes again when they were on weekdays.

If you're just asking for one, TJW syndie run, 1977-1986. But TTD would be a close second.

At one point I thought I remembered (could be totally wrong) reading that Sony owns the rights to these shows. What a great addition to the daytime lineup these would be. I digress.

I'll go with tvmitch and choose The Joker's wild. Any era that GSN has shown. I'll be happy!!
One of the reason I wanted the channel in the first place!!

Gotta go with "$20,000 Pyramid." In addition to the fact that most of us probably missed the six months' worth that GSN showed 14 years ago, there's still another year and a half out there that I'm sure many of us would love to see for the first time -- or for the first time in over 30 years.

Me, too!  The $20,000 Pyramid, for the same reason as Brendan's posting.

I'll go with Twenty-One, truly underrated show, it's a shame NBC didn't treat it very well(they didn't even bother to advertise the final episode).

It would help your case around here a lot if you could come up with another adjective.  Not every short-lived show that you happened to like needs to be described as "underrated".

Considering that all the questinos were multiple choice (at least, all the ones I saw, which I found an immediate turn-off), I'd say the revival of Twenty-One is overrated.

I thought it was just a myth that Rolf hated his Wheel tenure.

I would have to go with Wheel too. I've heard about several interesting things (e.g. a contestant who solved the bonus puzzle BABY BOY with no letters showing, two categories in 1995-1996 that were only used once, etc.) that I would love to see firsthand.

Ok then, how about underappreciated?  I'd also like to see "Dog Eat Dog" return.

<sigh>

Honestly trying to help here, how about "a show I liked more than most people did"?

Just like I'm sure politicians will stop acting like a bunch of three year olds. Not sure when, exactly, but it's happening!

Seriously, though, on what basis do you claim this?  Are you privy to some sort of scheduling information the general population is unaware of? Does a credible news source report this? Did your bowling buddy's third cousin Elmo have a few drinks with a GSN executive?  Source, please.
