New Name for GSN?

My choice for a new name for GSN would be..Sony PlayStation.  Great branding opportunities!
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

 How about the Game Place?

(Or, for a punch line, the "Bored" Game Place)

Look, if and when a change does happen, it's probably going to be known here as the network formerly known as Game Show."
This isn't a plug, but you can ask me about my book.

The obvious:  "Game TV"

The other option would be to name it after a notoriously prickly film director and reap the publicity benefits when he sues.
This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.
Stay tuned for all the obsessive-compulsive fun of Words Have Meanings.

Yes, but "Spielberg" would only make sense to Germans. :)

I propose "The Joe Raygor Channel", becasue I'm a egomaniac ! : P

I also like

"The Barbet Schroder Channel". Random Director
"The Anne Parillaud Channel" Because I think she's cute.
"Network Shows of Games" Is a good one.

How about "The Speed Up Network" (ducking)

(I wonder if anyone told them that their little "Time Machine" may be helping their interactive players cheat at MGPM Interactive if they have a TV with closed captioning?)

 Time Machine?  I didn't think they had the Grundy shows.

 Considering some of their early originals, how about the Alan Smithee Network?  :-)
