So I finally got GSN

(1/5) > >>

And here are my opinions-

I DON'T think the network will become the next G4.
I was watching quite a bit of it, and the VG promo was not promoted that much, in comparison to Millionaire, Elvira, and Cram. I just don't think it will be around that long. And if it is, so what? I'll just find something else to do with my time.

Cram, in my opinion, is a GREAT show. Funny Money, is not.

The classics still prevail more than the originals...even the "new" classics. Let's Make A Deal, Family Feud, Match Game, Newlywed Game, Pyramid, Wheel of Fortune, WWTBAM, Greed, Weakest Link....GSN is turning into a network to appeal to as many people as possible-not just a select few- so no Go, Bullseye, Break the Bank or Bumper Stumpers. So what if  some shows are showing the same seasons- having just got GSN, i haven't seen them-and because of my insane work/school schedule, I won't be able to watch every episode. BTW, one thing I have noticed that if you have seen all 150 of the 1988-1989 season of wheel...there's a problem.

The VG Block looks interesting, and I may watch it...but i don't know.

I am very glad to have GSN, and look forward to watching the shows in the future. I just wanted to state my two cents.

 I'm hoping that when they get through all 150 shows (which of course, running them more often now, they should get through the season quicker), that they actually *do* go to a new season... Really wouldn't make any sense otherwise.

Congrats on getting GSN, BTW - had it on my satellite service for nearly 7 years, and upon moving back with my parents, who only have cable, I can still keep up with it.

 It will take 39 weeks to get through the 1988-89 season of WOF if it does run Mon-Fri(the season is 195 episodes for Wheel)

Thanks! Last week, Someone wrote on one of the posts that Time Warner of Akron/Canton was moving GSN down from Digital 105 to Analog 71 effective Monday. However, I emailed Time Warner...and they said no new channels were added or moved. Monday rolled around, I checked 71, and...nothing. Wednesday rolled around, and I tried some other channels, and lo and behold- Match Game was on channel 67!

I found this story to be interesting..y'all may not! :-)

 Well, you're talking to someone that, for years, at least once a day, scanned all the TV channels to see if there was anything new (and once in a blue moon, there would be)..


So yes, I find your story interesting :)
