I'm wondering if GSN knew about the Buzzr TV deal in advance and are thinking they need to boost their original content since they'll probably lose access to the Fremantle collection...

Whose to say that they will lose access to it? Harvey's Feud proves that the same show can be seen on multiple channels. It's done with other shows all of time.  What makes game shows different?

  • Just leave the set; that’d be terrific.

Well, I think one could argue, Harvey Feud aside, that there's only so much market for Super Password.

I wonder if they will do it in NYC or La-La Land? One mistake the article had was teams of TWO.

How is that a mistake?  It's been done before.

The most recent version had three players on each team. But other than that, I think this is good news I think CR was one of GSN's more enjoyable shows.

Perhaps it will be teams of two with a celebrity partner?

Don't remember which article mentioned it, but it's in LA this time around.

Hopefully, they'll actually get contestants who can play the game this time around.

Buzzerblog reports that the host of CR will be Mike Catherwood, co-host of the radio show Loveline.
