I’ve been looking forward to Trivial Pursuit, which debuted today in syndication, for a while. The rules seem fine but the hosting worries me. But more than anything, there hasn’t been a long term successful non-primetime game show in syndication for a while, has there? Pyramid did OK but apparently not enough for Sony. I’d [...]

Hey everyone, Cory Anotado (and not Alex, you stupid commenters! Byline, attribution! These things MATTER! ;-)) here. This is my running commentary for the 37th Season Premiere of the Price is Right. If you’re not prepared for spoilers, then it would be a good idea to not read this until or while you’re watching the [...]

We’ve got two more debuts today for you to enjoy. The first is Trivial Pursuit: America Plays. Pretty middling reviews so far, but from what I saw today it was enough to keep me interested. The host, Christopher Knight, just was stiff and hopefully he can change as the season goes on. Then again this [...]

We’re going GSN crazy, aren’t we? If we keep getting news, we’ll keep publishing. We were given a few pictures of the new season of GSN’s interactive game show Bingo America. I keep hearing that Richard Karn did exponentially better than season one host Patrick Duffy, who was just too rigid and stiff. New co-host [...]

Be sure to check out GSN this Sunday as they show the final regular episode of their Play It Back weekend specials. This weekend we’ll see shows all about the 90’s. From 1:00PM ET to 7:00PM ET, Wheel of Fortune, Family Feud, and [...]
Today we have probably the favorite interview I’ve ever done: Caroline Rhea; the host of GSN’s new Play It Back marathons on weekends. These marathons conclude being regularly scheduled on Sunday with a 90’s special. I’m a fan of her stand up comedy so it was a huge thrill to talk to her. [...]
Sorry, we just got notified, like right now. Jerry Springer is the afternoon guest on GSN Live today from 5-6PM ET.

As always, thanks to our good friends at Hollwyood Junket, we have some information about Trivial Pursuit. If you’ve been following us at all over the past few weeks, you’ve noticed we’ve posted next to nothing about the show. And there’s a very good reason. We’ve had nothing to post. No real information has come out since the host, Christopher Knight, was announced. [...]
Are you a fan of one of Joey Fatone’s dozen or so shows he’s done in the past year? OK, that’s an exaggeration, but he’s been on a ton of stuff recently, hasn’t he? None has really been a winner, though. However, he’ll be on a winner today at least. Joey Fatone will be visiting GSN [...]

This is quite possibly my favorite episode of Deal or No Deal ever. I’m still in shock by what happened. Click on the cut to watch. I guarantee you’ll like it.

Posted by Alex Davis as Syndication, Who Wants to be a Millionaire?
I know we have some people connected with Who Wants to be a Millionaire? in some way shape or form who read this, so I figured I’d ask. I’m actually really curious about this too. It comes from reader David H.. He asks “just had a thought. If you use Double Dip on a question, get the first time wrong… the clock restarts, right? [...]
During an email conversation I had with someone last night, we commented on how a lot of people, including me, got sick over the weekend. It’s strange how many people I know suddenly came down with something. If you’re stuck in bed in a NyQuil coma like I was, this may be a great week [...]

Posted by Alex Davis as Don't Forget the Lyrics, FOX, Games, Grand Slam, Jeopardy, New Show, Whose Line is it Anyway?
So yeah, there’s been like nothing remotely newsworthy going on. All that’s a tiny bit interesting is that Chuck Woolery is going to be a backup singer on Don’t Forget the Lyrics! this season, and that Jeopardy! is being made for the Playstation 3. Beyond that, really nothing is going on. But we do have [...]
Here is what I consider to be one of the greatest moments of all-time on this show. It’s so good, it was featured on a viral video site not even two weeks ago.
Quick little blurb. TVWeek has announced that primetime Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader? host Jeff Foxworthy will be hosting the daytime version as well. It’s expected to launch Fall 2009.
