Out With the Old, and In with the New, Another GSN Experiment

GSN has done a whole bunch of schedule shakeups. For example, this week Harvey Feud gains 2 hours in latenights, replacing Karn, Engvall, Jeopardy!, and Password Plus. And Baggage replaces The $25,000 Pyramid and Super Password in latenights. And now, on September 21, Baggage also will replace Match Game and the Richard Dawson Family Feud.

I am going to support this change. Time is moving on. Older shows (especially game shows) are no longer appealing to people, except a select few. I mean, on GSN, there getting awful numbers, and they are putrid compared to big stuff such as American Bible Challenge which pulls almost 1 million viewers each week, or The Pyramid. Looks like GSN has had it. Seeing how Match Game pulls around 100,000 viewers each week, and Dawson has just about 75,000 each week. Looks very wimpy compared to those stuff. Hey I enjoy both Match Game and Dawson's Feud, but no one else, except the die-hard fans do (not that there's 100,000 of them). GSN figures Baggage could do better numbers. If all else fails, there's always Harvey.

I truly enjoy older shows, as well as modern. But as time progresses, those shows only get older. Match Game is turning 40 in July. Sorry, they just don't work.
