What old GSN Original would you want to see back?

[racingchick1020]

I think so but, I've heard some people don't like public polls where everyone sees what they voted. They won't vote in that case. That's why I don't make votes public.

I know. I don't mind if the poll is public, though. I vote in enough polls as-is.

[Lingofan97]

Is this a public poll? I haven't voted yet.

No. That's why I didn't make it a public poll because some people don't like voting in public polls.

[Lingofan97]

No. That's why I didn't make it a public poll because some people don't like voting in public polls.

That's been a problem before.

[Chameleonwhammy]

It's a huge problem. There's a certain someone, and that stance about public polls is the only thing we agree on.


Anyway, I'd love to see Russian Roulette revived, or even brought back in reruns.

GSN should bring a lot back in reruns, but they shouldn't revive it. Just stick to what they have, and they would probably ruin it.

This thread means "What old GSN originals that were cancelled would you like to see back", but Woolery and Saget are more expensive than Engvall and Inaba. Engvall- Could work in a second season of Lingo. But there are other hosts that could apply for 1 vs 100.

If GSN could afford acquiring 10 Seasons of DWTS and then removing it after just 2 seasons have aired, they definitely have the money to hire a good host and produce a good game show.

There's a difference between having the money, and choosing to spend it wisely. GSN has the money. They just choose not to spend it wisely. All the money spent on acquiring DWTS and the multitude of other reality programs set to premiere later this year, could've been used to produce 1 or 2 good game shows. Instead, they've decided to spend it on producing about 6 lousy programs that will fail in the ratings.

GSN used to spend money more wisely, but now they don't. Too much money is going to online gaming, when I think that should be cut back a little. GSN could spend more money on their TV network right now, but they don't

Russian Roulette and Lingo, the Chuck Woolery format, but with a host that's better at the game.

[Playmaniac001]

Voted for all except Hollywood Showdown because I've never seen that one. I always enjoyed Russian Roulette a lot, and Friend or Foe was interesting too.

Chuck Woolery was very good at playing Lingo, and would probably win the $100,000 if he went on the show today

If you're a Lingo fan as your username implies, you should know better . Very often, he would miss quite obvious words, either by forgetting to check the previous lines, or because, as he used to say "I couldn't see that for the life of me!" or "what on earth is this word?". Sandi, the co-host, was vey good, although she was modest and seldom showed it. Many times she's pointed out words that Chuck couldn't guess.

[Lingofan97]

Well, a lot of people can get hard words right on the first try but miss the most obvious ones, even the best players. Similar moments have happened in shows like Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune
