What show should be added to the schedule? Part 1

Sony wants a lot of money for Wheel Of Fortune, from what year?

Probably all the years, especially recently. So that's why we don't have Wheel of Fortune right now.

Also someone else mentioned here that GSN should acquire Match Game PM. That would be a good idea, along with a new season of Match Game

[jhshifris]

I'd love it. I haven't recorded Match Game again lately because GSN shows the same episodes over and over and over again.

Match Game PM would be great for GSN right now, seeing how Match Game in reruns is still doing so well.

[jhshifris]

Reruns are doing that well?

And, doesn't Sony also own Tic Tac Dough and The Joker's Wild?

I believe they do, but I doubt they want either one anywhere near the schedule.

Didn't we mention that Love Connection should be on the schedule again not too long ago?

Love Connection bombed on GSN if I recall. I don't see why it should come back, really. But, heck, It's more cleaner than some of the other trash GSN shows nowadays.

I voted for Recent WoF (2 years removed). It would be a ratings winner. They could air it in marathon form Saturday Nights and it would hammer Feuds numbers. Automatic Top 20 rated show.

GSN can not show Let's Make A Deal because CBS doesn't want it.

Really?

[jhshifris]

That's right. CBS also doesn't want GSN showing TPIR.

I doubt Sony would let GSN air the show on Saturday nights. Judging by past airing habits, they'd probably only be able to air it between 1 AM and 3 PM, if that.

Episodes of Wheel from the past 5-6 years would likely do well no matter where GSN put them. But I'm guessing that GSN may not be willing to pay a high price for a show that could only air in daytime or overnights. Otherwise, they would have picked up a recent season of Wheel in early 2011 following the success of the Black Friday 2010 marathon.

[jhshifris]

But, can Sony let GSN show Wheel Of Fortune on Sunday nights instead?

[Lingofan97]

Reruns are doing that well?

For Match Game, yes. In the 8am hour episodes are getting 200K ratings.

I would not be surprised if GSN brings Love Connection bad for three reasons. People like Chuck on Lingo, and we have shows like Baggage/NG/Love Triangle.

News Flash: Just because people like Chuck on Lingo doesn't mean they'll like him on Love Connection. He was good on there, but it's not my favorite show. Plus, I said it bombed if I recall.

I know the show bombed, but knowing how GSN works they would bring it back. And, people liked 5th Grader, hosted by Jeff Foxworthy, so GSN signed him to host American Bible Challenge. That is where I was going with that.
