Finally, WL gets the ax and not a minute too soon. It has been grinded enough, and even the die-hard fans were complaining on this one.

 WL is still on at 4PM as of 10/13. LC, WLOD, and $100K Pyramid all will have double airings a day come 10/13, however.

Chelsea Thrasher:
However, whether they'll be the same ep twice, or 2 different eps once, is unknown.

BTW:  Uploaded an HTML version of the page to http://gameshowutopia.com/Oct2003.htm.  For some reason, it tends to make more sense in a color coded chart, lol....

Finally, some good news for those who really don't care for a specific original, total airings are down across the board   The drop in per-week originals with the new sched is as follows:

Lingo: -4 Airings (to 19)
Russian Roulette: -4 Airings (to 17)
Friend or Foe?: -4 Airings (to 17)
Whammy: -10 Airings (to 11)
Cram: -11 Airings (to 10)
Funny Money: -15 Airings (to 6)
Wintuition: -1 Airing (to 5)

ChuckNet:
I just hope we FINALLY get out of the 88-89 and 97-98 seasons for WoF and J! (respectively)...they'll wear themselves out pretty fast if that's not the case.

Good to see the return of Password to B&WO, in any case.

I guess when it becomes \"The Games Network\"......nevermind. There's just nothing on there that gets me to think \"Wow! I really should watch that\" any more.[/quote]
What you makes think that they're becoming \"The Games Network\" based on one block?

And all previous attempts to outwardly program to under-24 audiences have been notably unsuccessful (yes, under different management teams)--do you honestly think they're going to succeed this time?  (I continue to believe that the video game block is some clueless Sony or Liberty suit's idea of juicing the demos and that the guy won't take Rich or Bob saying \"it's not going to work\" for an answer.)

And I keep saying this, but it's still true--you're never going to get \"Play the Percentages\" in prime time.  Or \"Bullseye.\"  Or \"Chain Reaction.\"  They won't draw crowds.  You just can't program to 1,000 diehards and expect to turn a profit.

Jimmy Owen:
I would like to see the 1980 Chain Reaction run in its entirety just one more time so I could get it on tape and have it so I wouldn't have to ask for it again. It doesn't have to be in a good time slot. Heck, if I could buy an Infomercial slot, I'd pay to put it on right after the B&W shows. Maybe someday, ten, twenty years from now, there could be a \"GSN on Demand\" where you could select a series for personal viewing or downloading for a fee.
