    If the threads are off-topic, I'm fine with it. But if posts have to get taken down, then that should be an issue. I don't remember posts/threads getting taken down until recently.

    Take it from someone who's been around a while. It happens all the time -- especially when threads are getting disruptive.

Something innocent and informative like "Today they are airing the "September" episode of Family Feud" followed by "IT BEATS NOW! HARVEY IS SATAN!" type comments or the 12,000 Anti-DWTS threads are examples of how it isn't helpful or rational.
    And thankfully these anti-DWTS threads came to an end since the show went off the air.

    BTW, I read that GSN picked up Seasons 4 to 13 of DWTS, but they only aired Seasons 4 and 12. Did they get to air Season 13, even if it was less than half that season?

    One user, who thankfully is banned for good, was, in my opinion, dubbed "the king of DWTS hate" and was taking out his anger against DWTS and why GSN doesn't show a lot of classics to the extent of obsession. I do admit, I found him very annoying as (H-bomb), it wasn't even funny. I wished he would get banned for good eventually, and my prayers were finally answered last February or March. I hate DWTS as much as the next guy, but not to the extent of obsession like the other guy was.

    Maybe the best solution is for GSN to stick with game shows - the traditional ones - instead of experimenting with reality crap.

    A word to the wise: If anybody doesn't like what's on GSN...

    CHANGE THE CHANNEL. PLAIN AND SIMPLE.

    Even better...

    Go for a walk. Do housework. Surf the internet. There's more to life than just TV.

    It takes just one post from someone and then it quickly esclates to full blown bashing.

    And there's more to even TV than GSN or game shows.

    A noble sentiment.

    However...

    Did I really see this noble sentiment in the same post as this sentence?

    For that matter, aren't you the same person whose entire enjoyment of a typical Price is Right episode hinges on which models are used in which segments, or who once tried to suggest that changing the font on the Spelling Bee cards was at least partly responsible for a drop in ratings?

    Ah, the sweet odoriferous smell of mixed messages... what would the Internet be without it? Probably a lot more pleasant.

    well, at least i was asking about the show itself going downhill and not the host!

    Is that supposed to be seen as improvement? You aren't fooling anyone with your loaded question. You blame Steve Harvey for everything you don't like about the show. So asking about the show, you may as well be implying the host too.

    TV has a lot more to offer rather than GSN...but on a nice Sunny Memorial Day I'd rather watch 0% of TV and spend 100% outdoors/at parades.

    I can't say I disagree with you but with no working grill (the REALLY sucks), a wife who's about to have surgery, the pool in the subdivision still being constructed after 3 years, and a continual futile effort to get the entire original Dallas series watched for my wife's sake (I've seen it all. She hasn't) before the new series starts we stayed indoors today. I forewent MLB for JR Ewing. Hopefully we get it all watched soon.
