    I want to Save GSN!

    I feel I know the best possible way to Save GSN from going the way of the Dinosaurs, or Extinct:

    The Cube

    It's done well in the UK, and I don't see how it would fail in the US. Just do the following:
    • No tampering with the Formula
    • No Loud contestants (no fakes)
    • Spend more time on gameplay and less on a contestant's life story
    • Do NOT put this show on Saturday Nights

    GSN, I insist you focus on shows like these rather than on junk like that Bible game show I've been reading about lately. Please, it's time to start getting serious. Stop Goofing Off.

    There are some of us that would like to have a Bible Quiz Show. I do not consider the Bible as junk. However, I do agree on having more game shows on GSN.

    GSN just has to start producing more originals and pick up some classics throughout the Spring for now. That'll be on step towards good

    Well, if GSN doesn't want The Cube, then who does? I still can't believe CBS rejected it two years ago. Bad Move!

    also FOX has rejected the show as well i think!

    The Cube would probably be the best game show that they could acquire.


    Upcoming Shows: Iron Maiden, Devore, September 13
    Kamelot, Anaheim, September 21

    GSN isn't going to show foreign game shows, like the ones we see listed on Buzzerblog. It would be a bad move for GSN, even though they are modern game show acquisitions.

    I wish gsn or a network would go to England and record a few episodes of The Cube and see how it does here rating wise. Like Millionaire did the week long test shows. As long they don't tamper with the format or bring in loud fake contestants this show could be a hit. Sadly this show would have a 3 year life span on American Television like other primetime game shows.

    That "Bible show" got GSN its highest ratings ever, and it's coming back in spite of your objections to it. The GSN execs are all trembling in their offices now over your constructive criticism I'm sure. Moving right along . . .

    That post was made in February. No one thought the show would break records back then.

    I agree. Seriously, Bible is junk? (Even though that post was made in Feb.) Get real, it's a clean show. Would you rather see more junk like The Newlywed Game, Baggage or Love Triangle? (Or god forbid any of that reality trash)

    Look, if you really don't like Bible (or any show on GSN), Don't watch. Simple as that. Who's going to stop you from changing the channel? The FCC? (Just saying) Man, people must have nothing better to do then complain about shows. You're not the only one who watches this network. It's all about ratings. Yeah, you can state your opinions. And yeah, those questions on that show can be unanswerable to some, but it gets you thinking.

    By the way, when this thread was made, 1. You're not sure what this show was going to be like, and 2. You don't know how the ratings would be. So, state your opinions when the show actually airs.

    Do people have a lot of free time or what? (No offense)
