What if Flashback Fridays became Throwback Thursdays?

More Deal Or No Deal?

As I said in the other thread, put WWTBAM on Friday Nights. That show gets good ratings at 2am early Monday Mornings on the schedule as noted by Abell's cousin.

Monday nights now would be better. If GSN picks up another modern acquisition soon, then air it Mondays 7pm-11pm if GSN still sticks with the dreaded blocks. Family Feud bombs on Monday nights now

GSN got into the blog business? Uh-Oh, Abell better watch himself.

What will they air on Fridays?
Isn't this "Throwback Thursdays" just another excuse to move the low rated Friday block up a day? Kinda defeats the purpose since Friday and Saturday are lowest rated TV nights. Thursday is still somewhat substantial.

Actually, I have a blog regarding the network. Abell and I use the same blog service by Google and we're okay with that. As for Friday, I would say any GSN original we haven't seen in a while.

There are a lot of GSN blogs, but a lot of them aren't popular

Can you name any GSN blogs here? Or are you just talking about game show blogs, which I do have.

There are many game show blogs but some are just dedicated to GSN

5th Grader does well on Sunday's, yes but, let's not forget when GSN had Million Dollar Sunday back in August, it seemed to do fairly good ratings. Even Who Wants to be a Millionaire? at the time if I recall.

If GSN did Million Dollar Sunday...

7:00pm - Deal or No Deal
8:00pm - 1 vs. 100
9:00pm - Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?
10:00pm - Million Dollar Password
11:00pm - Who Wants to be a Millionaire?

Just suggesting. 5th Grader would still be on Sundays. But maybe it would bomb like that but, who knows. We'd have to see. I hear million dollar game shows are losing appeal but, 5th Grader does fairly well on Sundays and the Million Dollar Sunday block did well back in August 2011. Food for thought.

By the way, if you don't remember, GSN was trying different stuff back in August 2011 to replace Improv a Ganza and Love Triangle on GSN. They tried the Play It Back: 70's, 80's and 90's Game Shows documentaries too.

No, you mean Million Dollar Monday

Those were good. We never saw the ratings for those so I'm wondering how well they did. I was thinking in the future on Monday nights Catch 21 wouldn't be a bad addition. Of course I would rather have the block scheduling gone, but it could do better than 200Kish ratings

No, back in August 2011 they did a Million Dollar Sunday block. That back then, was a one time deal.

I think ratings were posted for those. If I can find them, I'll edit this post.

I don't believe I can find the ratings for Million Dollar Sunday, however.

GSN's probably-desired money outlay for the week:

Sixty-Dollar Sunday.
Million-Dollar Monday.
Ten-Dollar Tuesday.
One-Dollar Wednesday.
Thousand-Dollar Thursday.
Fifty-Dollar Friday.
Seven-Dollar Saturday.

The special did pretty well, but even with Love Triangle that schedule was still really good.

The specials aired back in 2008, so these are reruns, in case you didn't know.

They released ratings for the Million Dollar Sunday. The highest of that block (and that day) was *gasp* Regis Millionaire.
