It's Saturday morning and I'm posting some dribs and drabs on the GSN board about the network and game shows in general...
Other poster: I just wish they would show some more episodes of The Newlywed Game when Carnie hosted. They'd basically be fresh episodes to us, and would do well in ratings. I'm getting tired of Sherri's season 4 episodes weekend mornings at 11am. Carniewed could air then.
GSN has run a few Carniewed eps since they settled the lawsuit with her last December. Maybe she'll be back regularly one of these days. That's a lot of episodes sitting on the shelf.
Another poster: I know it's just beating a dead horse, but man...Price is Right skews old.
Another report once said that TPiR's median viewer age is 63. Which means half their audience qualifies for Social Security.
Sure, the median age for the entire TV audience is creeping up. The U.S. (hey, the whole world) is getting older as birth rates fall everywhere. But The Price is Right skews old by any standard. Not saying that's terrible, but it's a fact. As the report notes: "Game shows per se traditionally draw among the oldest viewers."
