Hey, maybe they dug MG98 out of the trash can for the 10:30 slot(geez Louise I surely hope not!), anything is possible!

I remember reading something about a five-year waiting period before current versions of Pearson/Fremantle shows showing up in reruns. Considering MG98 aired five years ago, and niche networks will do anything for a broader audience...
...but does anybody still remember Monica whatshername?

I really don't think GSN will *ever* pick up the 1998 version of "MG." It was a huge ratings failure that didn't even last a full first-run season and in moments of candor even Kevin Bellinkoff would probably tell you now that it was wanting in many aspects.
And I have the feeling that any research GSN has done pretty much proves that to the wider public, if it ain't Gene with Richard, Brett and/or Charles, it ain't "MG."

I think that is probably true else we'd be seeing a lot more of Match Game '90.

Amazingly enough, it did limp through the full 1998-99 season.
