Well, Let\'s hope Nick can have another successful game show again...if it\'s successful, maybe kids can become lifelong fans of the genre.

To be honest growing up, I really didn\'t like the game shows just for kids. I only watched them if nothing else was on. For example, when I was 7 years old in 1990 at 4 PM I had the choices of Get The Picture, Supermarket Sweep, Match Game, or The Challengers. Get The Picture very rarely won that battle. Usually I watched Match Game.

I\'d say it\'s pretty damn impossible for GTP to have won that battle considering it didn\'t make air until 1991.

And even then, wasn\'t it on at 6 PM for its entire run? Or am I just imagining that.

Wrong year and that would have made me 8, lol. I don\'t know why 1990 was stuck in my head. Very sorry about that. Anyways, yes it was on at 6 PM, but I lived in the Mountain time zone so it was 4 PM my time.

I\'m curious...Where did you live that MG was on at 4PM? I remember seeing an issue of Satellite ORBIT with the \"Denver 5\" listed and KUSA airing MG at an odd time...

I lived in Cheyenne, WY and the only way we got ABC or NBC was to have cable. Cheyenne only had a local CBS affiliate. I just remember getting out of school at 3:30 and Match Game starting by the time I got home.

Okay then. Carry on.
