Have Game Shows Jumped the Shark?

Not to mention the non game show related late night informercials and the 2 hour 3 times a week video games block that's not fitting! [/quote]
Hey, what do you know, yet another post slamming GSN in a thread discussing the genre as a whole.

Will someone please let me know when this guy stops whining about "fee plugs" and speedups here and in the GSN forums.
Fella, please get a clue. If you want "museum quality" shows, go to the Museum of Broadcasting.

To Chris C., I know I've replied twice already, but I have a question...having worked with G-T and knowing what Goodson knew about his shows what have your honest opinions been on the new Goodson revivals (MG98, Feud99/02, CS01). Other than the obvious, of course, but aside from the new theme and Cuomo set, do you think the actual gameplay is solid enough for Feud to hold up to the Dawson or even Combs eras?

Chris wasn't asking about Gameshow Network. Matt; Chris; ban this guy, and I'll take you out to eat at Outback.

Umm...GSN has it's own page over at the JTS site. If you wanna bitch and moan, take it over there.
