Dream on

Once in a while the oldies boards indulge in dream schedules for GSN.

For the most part the results are exactly what you would expect. The posters want to turn GSN into Buzzr, plus some non-Fremantle shows and minus Celebrity Name Game or anything else "past 2004," like this guy. Well, we've already got Buzzr and it plays to an audience of several dozen hardcores (slight exaggeration).

Sometimes a more offbeat suggestion surfaces. This poster wants to bring back a lot of GSN originals on weekends. It's a mixed bag, everything from the lame quizzer Wintuition to the overdone Soska concoction Hellevator. In the middle of it all, there's an hour of That's the Question.

I've blogged before about this interesting word game, which was too quiet and cerebral for its own good. The show was still fun to play along with, much like the similarly brain-teasing Now You See It. I doubt that reruns of That's the Question will ever see the light of GSN, though, on weekends or any other time.
