Comments on: ION Television ALSO Picks Up O’Hurley’s “Family Feud” http://buzzerblog.flashgameshows.com/ion-also-picks-up-o%e2%80%99hurleys-%e2%80%9cfamily-feud%e2%80%9d/ Thu, 24 Jul 2008 07:23:52 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: keith http://buzzerblog.flashgameshows.com/ion-also-picks-up-o%e2%80%99hurleys-%e2%80%9cfamily-feud%e2%80%9d/#comment-56409 keith Wed, 26 Mar 2008 23:09:22 +0000 http://buzzerblog.flashgameshows.com/ion-also-picks-up-o%e2%80%99hurleys-%e2%80%9cfamily-feud%e2%80%9d/#comment-56409 I think it would be great to have at least one or two game shows on ION. Family Feud is a good start, but how about a new season of Supermarket Sweep? That could definetly bring some ratings in. I think it would be great to have at least one or two game shows on ION.

To me he's this generation's Richard Dawson. John has been doing a damn fine job with the Feud. Mr. Dawson would be proud. 2008 has been FF's year so far. I can see the future of Feud being a bright one. Fremantle did the right thing picking John O'Hurley for FF. I’m glad O’Hurley is getting more exposure. To me he’s this generation’s Richard Dawson.

They've become more of a "general interest" channel now. I think they wanted to distance themselves from game shows for a little bit, but now that they've established themselves as a network with more variety, they can once again start airing the Feud. Karn's version was a consistent fixture in the 7:30 slot for a while, so it must have been doing fairly well. I could only imagine O'Hurley would do just as well or better.

There are still people who can't afford digital cable or satellite service (which carries GSN) and this would be good for those with standard or expanded cable--until 2/17/2009, when all TV channels have to go to an all-digital signal.

PAX was really the game show destination with Shop Till You Drop (old and new), On The Cover, Balderdash, Supermarket Sweep, and Karn Feud. Even though PAX has a new format and a new name (Ion) I think this was good acquisition for them and of course looks even better for O' Hurley staying around for quite a long while.
