    What did you think of DWTS in premiere night?

    Everybody was ready for premiere night of DWTS to GSN, but the formers disagree about it ever since it was picked up. So answer this question:

    I never turned on GSN all night.

    I don't watch GSN on weekends and I won't now for sure because of Dancing with the Stars. I'm looking forward to seeing the ratings for this tonight. The rerun abuse is going to be ridiculous. Let's face it, of course it'll be mostly women watching this network and I'm sure they were okay with the game shows. I know they also get male viewers but they probably won't much now if GSN airs more Dancing with the Stars. GSN should've just stuck to airing game shows, and if this does poorly, GSN will not go off the air but they'll probably learn to stick to real game shows. Dancing with the Stars is competitive and in GSN's description it says "Classic, Original and Competitive" but not a true game show. And, of course if this does poorly, GSN will wonder why. Well, why have shows like this failed in the past?

    As I said, the females were probably okay with the traditional game shows. That's why they watch GSN.

    Let's hope for the miracle this week or next that due to toilet ratings GSN pulls the plug on DWTS becoming the quickest acquired show rerun package since the 2 week out of a planned 7 week Show Me The Money in 2007!

    Phimat, my dear friend, this is one female that didn't watch it. The second that DWTS came on I turned to the HGTV Channel, which I watched for an hour, and then, because I refused to go to DWTS (I think it is disgusting) I turned too the Fox News Channel. How pathetic is that. I watched about 1/2 hour of that, and turned back to HGTV. I would rather watch the coverage of politics or people looking for houses than watch that program. I do not believe that female game show enthusiasts will prefer a non-game show, and will not consider this a game show.

    I am anxious to see how this poll turns out. So far, it is 100% NO.

    No, I don't think I've watched GSN on a weekend since the Top 50 Game shows of all time. I watch sports.

    I watched very little of it. But, I would have been watching GSN all night if Family Feud was on. Won't be watching it next Friday night at all. Come March...I hope they bring Pyramid back on Friday nights. Then I'll watch GSN again on Fridays.

    Come Feb., DWTS would be gone after 2 weekends, and GSN will be on life support or something like that, then Amy Davis would be fired, and then GSN will go belly up, etc., etc., etc...

    It's a good thing that I was at the bowling alley instead of seeing Dancing With The Stars

    I use to bowl on two leagues a week. I loved bowling. Now, I am unable to bowl, homebound and only have TV, reading, and the internet.

    The internet is my extent of socializing. So, I watch a lot of TV and for a long time my TV was always on GSN. Now, I am watching a lot of other channels, because of the non-game shows that GSN has been showing. Last night I even watched the campaign news on Fox News Channel. That was how desperate I am.

    So, I envy you.
