There is an article that is probably 1 paragraph longer in a local Phili newspaper. http://www.phillyburbs.com/pb-dyn/news/113-10192006-729197.html I’m sorry, it’s been a horribly busy week.

If so, could you provide us a link with said story? As far as *Chain Reaction* goes...it has potential. Based on earlier comments, it sounds as if GSN has no plans to produce new episodes, but if they do, they need to learn from their mistakes and do something closer to the pilot (returning champions, larger dollar amounts, etc.). In addition, GSN may want to take a cue from what they did with *Hollywood Showdown* several years ago and do contestant searches nationwide. Alex…was the piece part of a larger newspaper interview?

It's almost as if some of these players never heard of the game. The bonus round simply takes teamwork and practice. If GSN were smart, they would have aired episodes of Chain Reaction and Go! before releasing their new Chain Reaction.

The concept is kind of fun, but the people are deffinatly not the smartest, and the host is really awkward(this makes sence, considering that he went from hosting a countown show on Fuse(like MTV if MTV played music videos) to hosting an intelligent word game). I think this show will join the other GSN originals with a good idea done poorly. Sigh, Friend Or Foe could have been awesome... The show had potential.

I'd like to read that, if that's the case. Is this an excerpt of a larger interview somewhere else? I’d like to read that, if that’s the case.
