My Favorite Year on GSN

I've had GSN since 2003. I'd have to say the 2006 - 07 year is the one I liked best, the 2007 - 08 year a close second. GSN had the most variety of originals and classics during this time.

I haven't been watching that long, but I'll say any year that wasn't 2009. If I have to be specific, I'll say 2007.

Looking back, definitely 1997-1998.
Compared to today's GSN programming, that period wasn't so "dark" now was it? Sure it had excessive Newlywed Game and Dating Game repeats, but seriously, we'll probably never see more than 80% of those shows broadcast on GSN ever again.

2009 was for me a terrible year period. But not just because of the programming:

It was also because of the technical problems that began in May of this year. I know that no network is perfect, and GSN has had those kinds of problems before, but does it really have to take like 90 FREAKIN' YEARS for GSN to fix them? Their initial claim was that they were relocating the production facilities for GSN Live, but even after the transition ended, the problems continued like no tomorrow, and I immediately called B.S.

Off-topic, but I can think of several channels that, in my opinion, are better than GSN as of right now:

ESPN Classic (they even show Sports Challenge and the original American Gladiators)
Turner Classic Movies (Have been playing classic movies in their original form for 15 years, and show no signs of stopping that)
Pretty much all of the HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, and TMC channels
All of the channels in the Starz/Encore package
Fox Movie Channel
