In fact, we'll get two of them over the next couple months. As a faux tweet noted, GSN trots out a special sneak preview of Pyramid tomorrow after the first-runs of American Bible Challenge and Beat the Chefs. The network clearly hopes to capitalize on the strong ratings for their Bible quizzer and pros-versus-joes cook-off.
SyFy will do something similar with the second season of its in-the-dark stunt show, Total Blackout. The "regular" season debuts November 13, but the famous sneak peek comes on October 29. The peek-a-boo will enjoy a marathon lead-in from hidden-camera project Scare Tactics.
Cable networks get sneakier all the time. Guess they figure a tantalizing glimpse will lead to better numbers for the regular run. Of course, if a show stinks, all the sneak peeks in the world won't impress the Nielsen Company.
