GSN, this is a new low, even for you (PYL and CS related)

I loved your suggestions so much that I edited my post and threw them in there. :-)  Instead of Hold Everything, I put Bullard's Love Connection on after Card Guppies.  Three's a Crowd is on the schedule...All New, anyway.  I decided to stick with the 2 hours of infomercials from 7 to 9 and the 8 hours of more infomercials from midnight to 8.  Help is much appreciated, guys! :-)

GSN had no problem leasing for 200 episodes of Press Your Luck in 2001, and had no problem leasing 200 Card Sharks episodes back in 2001.

The fact that GSN has now leased for only 50 episodes of both shows shows how pathetically off the cheap end GSN has gotten.

This is 2012. Where the hell have you been?

That was then, this is now.  And Card Sharks was part of a lease that included all of the Goodson-Todman library pre-1995 (save for TPIR and Feud '94).

CS lease was actually in 2010, not 2001. And I don't care. This is still a clueless mistake on GSN's part.

GSN - Completely clueless since 2004.

Oh, and Mark Odor. If you are reading this, let it be known that you are nothing but a liar. You had the nerve to lie about me. Claiming that I know nothing about unaired episodes.

You obviously haven't ever taken a course in economics.  How does it make any fiscal sense to air episodes of a failing show when repeats pull the same ratings?  You're what, 45?  Time to take the fandom blinders off for a change.

Note to self: next time a thread is mainly Owen and gslover87, skip it.  I blame my lack of sleep.

Uh, Mark Odor, aren't you aware of the fact that syndicators show unaired episodes of TV shows in syndication? Quit pretending you are a 100% knowledgeable person. This is the dumbest thing you have ever said about me. You had no right to say this at all.

Holy Jesus, Mother of Mary. You seriously get this worked up over this stuff?

Do your parents know of your obsession? They could get you the professional help you need.

You know, Mark and I are like oil and vinegar, but that is a completely asinine statement to make. Especially considering you did more to reinforce his point than you ever did to refute it.

And I guess you'll continue to get away with it too.

I don't need professional help. That's nonsense. I'm doing just fine.

Most of us have a certain amount of "geek factor" about Game Shows or we wouldnt be here, but this borders on insanity..At this point it just really doesnt matter about Card Sharks or Press Your Luck, and you DO need help,,

I defy someone to top that...as wrong as it is.

Oh the irony. This is getting really old.

BTW, can you read lips by any chance?

I myself would love a GSN where the schedules were just like they were before October 1997, with PYL, $10k/$20k/$25k/$100k Pyramid, etc. thrown in there.  But GSN will never go back to that.  Does that make them "inhuman monsters" to me?  No, I just accept it and move on, if there's something I don't like on GSN, I don't watch.  Be lucky GSN even put PYL back on the schedule in the first place.  Quality, not quantity!
