I didn't get the exact lyrics, but finally they altered that annoying tune they've had all summer. I wonder what the heck they have planned for the fall?

/Red October?
//Or go ahead and celebrate Christmas months ahead like the retail industry?

You know, this isn't even the *first* time that GSN has based promos around songs:

And the idea is just as bad in 2008 as it was in 2001.

Man, "Mars" isn't capitalized in the Match Game spot. The commercial's only turn-off.

Guide_Angel posted on the GSN Boards that GSN will end this horrible "Catch A Game" campaign on Sunday. Let's see what they replace it with.

Am I the only person that doesn't hate these promos?

No. I look at them and say "Enh. No big deal."

Maybe it's because I just watch a few of the older shows (Match Game, Password, B&W overnight) but it hasn't bothered me that much.

But if they continue running that until it gets below zero here in Wisconsin, footwear and screen may collide.

I'm pretty much the same way. I was just messing with the Prepster a little.

/And besides, I prefer to think of it as Jan & Dean they're remixing.

I don't see any problem with them continuing to run it for another three weeks. :-)

...then again, I'm currently sitting a whopping three blocks south of the Illinois/Wisconsin border, so maybe I shouldn't be too quick with the mocking.

They won't. The whole campaign will be gone on Sunday says Guide_Angel.

I always thought they were kinda cute. I've seen worse.

They don't bother me at all.

Then again, I liked the kareoke promos from 2001, so I may not be the best judge...

It's one of the least annoying things that ends up on my DVD's for a split second going into commercial. However, the graphic has too often covered up passwords (on P+) and the fourth row (on NYSI) coming out of commercial.
