 Wasn't that pretty much the whole reasoning behind CBS "defarming" its lineup (jettisoning PETTICOAT JUNCTION, GREEN ACRES, THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES and HEE HAW), and ABC giving up on Lawrence Welk as well (because the audience was "too old, not too small")?  I know it's kind of apples and oranges, but it's still a rebranding principle.

 There was an ATGS before GSN. This forum will exist after GSN. In fact, I'm inclined to think the quality of this forum will only improve.

 It does suck....
Whine, whine, whine......

As someone else said, it was good while it lasted. For what its worth, I hope it backfires on them. I have been missing going to the movies more and more. Now it is time to go out there and get a life. ;-) Boy my wife will be surprised. :-)

Actually, there's really only one. It's green and it folds. [/quote]

I am saddenedabout this whole buisness. It irritates me how the network is going down the "popular trend" (I still think reality shows won't be around much longer) and almost seems to be trying to put on a reality based network before their competitor does. I'll still try the new network when I can-I don't believe in "appointment television". But I hope between now and when the re-branding occurs, that they stop and seriously think about this.
