GSN needs a hit.  Badly.  How Much is Enough?, which I still feel bad about giving a remotely positive review about after just one episode, bombed.  Bingo America is fine enough but obviously cares much more about the bingo players at home than the actual game, and that hurts the final product.  Catch 21 has a long history with GSN.  Pitched years [...]

Going on this week is the video game nerd’s wet dream, E3, which is a huge video game expo where companies show off their new products and make major announcements.  One of them that we were told about was Xbox Live Primetime, where you can play big online game shows against people in real time.  One of which is NBC’s middle child [...]

Here’s our video of the weekend: England’s revival of Gladiators.  It looks exactly like our season one, just a bit smaller, and that was a bit disappointing.  Equally as disappointing as our season one was, actually.  Here is their Eliminator which left a lot to be desired.  No [...]

Well FOX may have found a way to actually make me want to watch their new game show Hole in the Wall.  Brooke Burns (model, actress, host of Dog Eat Dog, unbelievably hot) will be hosting the new “fit your body through a moving hole in the wall” show along with personality Mark Thompson.

We’ve already went through several reports of Deal or No Deal scrapping episodes that NBC and Endemol do not deem exciting or fun enough to put on the air.  If you’re a fan of their persistence in not showing what the game is really like, you’ll be happy (?) for this report from our friends at HollywoodJunket.  Syndicated Deal or No Deal will be [...]

Ever get one of those emails where you say “Are you kidding me?  I’m hoping this is a dream.”  I did once GSN sent out the advanced schedules for the next few weeks.  Russian Roulette is sadly gone except for weekends at 4:00PM ET.  Replacing it starting July 21st at 6:00PM ET daily is Pyramid.  Not the good Dick Clark kind.  It’s the [...]

GSN’s started its summer season off with a bang with the new campaign to “Catch a Game”.  During the summer the network will be showing off its cool beach like image while getting the word out about their new show: Catch 21.  We’ve covered the show quite a bit so far, and if you’ve followed us you know the basic information.  Catch 21, hosted [...]
