Alex Davis at BuzzerBlog must have gotten a new set of GSN schedule pdfs. Since he takes his time posting the pdfs, we have to make do with his Facebook descriptions. Alex says that Dancing With the Stars will get ten-hour blocks on Friday and Saturday 6:00PM-4:00AM starting the week of January 23. The hoofers will also dance 1:00PM-6:00PM Sunday afternoon.5th Grader will get a new 3:00PM-6:00PM block on Friday and keep its Sunday night marathon. Karn/O'Hurley Family Feud moves from Saturday night to Monday night 7:00PM-12:00AM. Alex doesn't mention any other changes.
As you might expect, these changes are producing fainting and rage on the GSN schedule board. One poster does wander into a painful truth: "Obviously GSN does not care if we quit watching them or not. They think so little of the majority of people on this board."
You are correct, "flora1941." GSN worries a whole lot more about people who watch the network. And Dancing might as well be designed for those "adult female" folks. If a few dozen older-is-better posters on an Internet board get upset, well, GSN will deal with it.
UPDATE: Can't resist some of the perceptive analysis from the GSN schedule board: "you see i told you guys [GSN programming veep] Amy Introcaso-Davis is an evil spirited woman who has been possessed by the Devil or former V.P. of GSN Kelly Goode (take your pick)." Gotta love those cool, calm and collected posters. I do expect Brendy, the GSN board moderator, will take down that post. [The post's language has now been softened considerably. Don't know if Brendy intervened or if the poster just decided to look more reasonable.]
