    Yes, it is on now.
    As soon as it came on I changed the channel to HGTV. I am not, and will not watch that show. I know that there are others that feel the same. GSN is quickly becoming the NGSN channel (Not a Game Show Network).

    So sad.

    Lingofan, you the man. Just what is GSN thinking? Bring in reruns of old shows! Mark my words, GSN will not go broke.

    When DWTS came on I immediately kept watching Hockey on the NHL Network like I'd been doing all day. I'm now watching Panthers/Former team I used to like before they moved to Canada this year.

    Thanks. If GSN spent the Dancing with the Stars money on classics, we would get a thousand episodes of Match Game, Card Sharks and $100,000 Pyramid each. That's probably how much the purchase cost.

    And not nearly the same ad revenue which would hurt their bottom line even more yet no one seems to understand or is willing to accept that fact in their griping sessions about this show taking up space in about 15 threads now.

    Get ready to hope with toilet ratings GSN pulls DWTS after 1 weekend!

    Thank god there is TV Land and MeTV (Chicago station). I don't need GSN. There is other networks to cater to me.

    I have GamesTV now, thankfully, and they air GAME SHOWS; and competitive shows as well, such as Poker blocks, and weekend movies and such, but this is the only place I can see Supermarket Sweep. Hopefully someday they'll acquire the rights to other FremantleMedia offerings.

    Does Canada's Game TV still air another GSN loathed show that lasted a few years called "Dog Eat Dog"?

    More than that probably (what you think about Originals, classics and schedule pages totaled up)

    Yeah well it's overkill. We get it. The majority of posters here don't like DWTS. But as you have stated yourself elsewhere there was a lot of different ads on the show. That's because it draws a different audience coveted by sponsors and who spends money. Sorry folks, unless this show does SUBSTANTIALLY LESS viewership than anything else it's staying for that reason alone. Please don't jump if the ratings come out and bare this out.

    Every minute there seems to be an advisement on the station. Either if it's a regular commercial or going across the bottom of the screen, face it , it's ten times worse than Improv or the new Lingo.

    Did I misunderstand? I thought you or someone else was referring to the sponsors advertising during the show. Not GSN advertising it during their other shows.

    I have noticed that many other sponsors have joined the network in support of Dancing with the Stars.
