For those who have digital cable, FamilyNet, a christian TV network started showing reruns this week, giving those who didn't get the show during it original run a chance to see it.

Oy. I need to check and see if I get that tonight when I get home, because if I do, I need to make sure my Tivo thinks I DON'T. :)

Four episodes a day, 20 episodes a week (not counting the overnight reruns)? They trying to go through the season in one month?

Don't give GSN any ideas.

I won't call "fixed", because they could have started showing it earlier, but I do know it was running last week.

It does not need to do anything of the sort. Do you understand, human? It does not need to program anything solely because you wish it.
I'd like to see The $20,000 Pyramid back on the regular schedule, but the channel does not need to run them. And I do not need to see them. I want to, but do not need to. I do not have a Bob Clayton monkey on my back.
Do I want more John Reed King material on the network? Sure, we all do. A documentary on how her $$$ wins 20+ years ago helped Heather Davis Lemon pay her off her debts? Of course. It'd be riveting television....to one person in Seattle, who understands that he does not need to see it. Just wants to. And, therefore, lets it go and leaves it there.
It would behoove you to do the same. Many blessings.

Congratulations, Mr. Lemon on your recent (?) hook-up.  And Mr. Howard, is there an archive available for your top 50K game show moments, so when both Matts co-host they will be able to reminisce?

Honestly, I could see GSN picking up the reruns, given they seem to go for a lot more recent stuff, and given that Program Partners wanted to do a second season, GSN makes sense, given the show's budget.

That being said, GSN is not obligated to air the show just because you say so.

I'm guessing that you didn't mean 'up to bed'.
