get some other good game shows
« on: December 09, 2005, 01:07:56 AM »
I think GSN needs to get some other games too.  I think first off they should try to buy the right from NBC of the show Classic Concentration.  I also think they should get the Reg-Grundy productions like Sale Of The Century and Scrabble.  Bring back also Tic Tac Dough, Joker's Wild, Bullseye, Bumper Stumpers and Play The Percentages.  I will give good note though I am happy that you got the Password Plus and Super Password back and all three of the great classic card sharks back which by the way they need to revive Card Sharks like that except maybe you can take your polls from people online.  Keep Press Your Luck definity and add it more during  the week  and also go and get Wipeout I seen it only one time but it was neat.  I also think you need to put Chain Reaction with Bill Cullen in the spot between match game and family feud in the morning at 8:30 a.m. central standard time.  I want to see all the chain reactions back on again.  High Rollers was good I never seen the Trebek version but Wink martindales version was tight.  there is a channel already called Reality TV so run Amazing Race  on it.  Take off the millionare with Regis and Weakest Link with Ann because those have been ran into the ground.  let me pitch an idea or two gameshows to your network and see what happens its gotta be better than most of whats on now.  I do applaud on some shows that you run but don't run Millionare with REgis or run it at 5 pm and 7 pm central time.

Wow.

If you would have read some news, you would know that PYL is coming back to weekday.

Anyhow, why would any of your ideas make GSN more viable?

I really hate to sound elitist, but we have GOT to come up with an entry test to this board.

God, no. Please. In the name of all that is good and holy, no.

Mr. Dascoot, sir: You are aware that these are not the GSN forums, we are not affiliated with GSN in any way, and that you are not speaking to GSN directly, yes?

I second that.  I'd love to see more Classic Concentration ep's.  That was a good show.  Scrabble with Chuck Woolery was also good.  USA used to show it in the '90s.  USA used to show a lot of good game shows back in the day.

I thought it's been said that there has been a test to get in.  All you have to do is flunk it and that's how you get in! :)
