What Went Wrong?( Part 1 of 6)

[Lingofan97]

The front game on CS78/86 could go a briefly as two questions (don't know if it ever happened that fast, but it could: a contestant could win a question and turn all five cards; then repeat) or as long as eleven questions. There would have to be some good editing or substantial gameplay change to make the show self-contained...unless I'm missing something. Which is certainly possible.

This all changed for the worse in '01. GSN is reviving $100,000 Pyramid, but if they were to revive Card Sharks that could be good news for GSN. Since Catch 21 still airs but has been cancelled after 4 seasons, a card game on GSN could work somewhere over the next couple years.

I read the link about C.S. 2001, and I must say if it was that bad, I'm glad I don't recall it at all -- not the show, not the host, not the network (or syndication channels), not even the time frame of it. It must have been on while my husband and I were on my honeymoon or moving into our current abode.

It was on in late '01/early '02. I never got to see it while it was on either, as none of the stations in my area picked it up. I have watched it on YouTube, and it doesn't look like I missed much.

It wasn't worth picking up
