jjman920, yes it is inexcusable. GSN has never done this crap before. You should give a kitty what they leased. And they do need to explain a damn thing.
Besides, there's a good chance this is all GSN is ever gonna for years and years to come. Even if ratings are the best, chances are they'll just keep showing the same damn first 50 over and over again to please only average casual viewers. I hate average casual viewers.
To quote tvtropes, Viewers are Morons.
