If such a deal is true, it's possible the deal is not with the network itself, but with some of its stronger affiliate stations (WWOR in New York, for instance) to air the show in prime time on Saturday or Sunday night -- days MNT does not program. We're starting to see a slow return to first-run, high-publicity weekend syndicated fare to TV -- Legend of the Seeker and Brian McKnight's talk show are good examples -- and a number of MNT affiliates air both. Perhaps Shuffle Up and Deal will join them. I don't think any deal has been officially announced….some poker Web sites are reporting there will be a deal with MyNet, but nothing has been confirmed.

Seriously? Has it come to this? (I use that too much these days) Unrelated to the story can someone tell me why do they call themselves My Network TV when they're not a network anymore? As for the game itself, seeing as it might not last long, My Programming Service TV is the perfect net....uh, programming service for the show. My Network TV? Seriously? Has it come to this?

Since when did that network (I'm sorry...programming service) start planning new shows again? I thought they only played syndicated reruns, the occasional magic special and WWE Smackdown.

You pick your 'hole' cards from the board, then everyone gets a pick of another card to fill in the flop, turn and river. Mix in some betting and other twists and turns, and you've got a game show for the average joe.
