My choice for a new name for GSN would be..Sony PlayStation.  Great branding opportunities!

 How about the Game Place?

(Or, for a punch line, the "Bored" Game Place)

Look, if and when a change does happen, it's probably going to be known here as the network formerly known as Game Show."

The obvious:  "Game TV"

The other option would be to name it after a notoriously prickly film director and reap the publicity benefits when he sues.

Yes, but "Spielberg" would only make sense to Germans. :)

I propose "The Joe Raygor Channel", becasue I'm a egomaniac ! : P

I also like

"The Barbet Schroder Channel". Random Director
"The Anne Parillaud Channel" Because I think she's cute.
"Network Shows of Games" Is a good one.

How about "The Speed Up Network" (ducking)

(I wonder if anyone told them that their little "Time Machine" may be helping their interactive players cheat at MGPM Interactive if they have a TV with closed captioning?)

 Time Machine?  I didn't think they had the Grundy shows.

 Considering some of their early originals, how about the Alan Smithee Network?  :-)
