To replace the longest-running drama on television, the network is taking a trip down memory lane. CBS is mulling over remaking two classic game shows, Let's Make a Deal and The Dating Game, according to The Hollywood Reporter. There were talks of a revamp of Pyramid, but not it looks as though Dating might be the network's preferred choice. The original Deal, hosted by Monty Hall, debuted in 1963 and ran from for 10 years on ABC, followed by various syndicated versions and remakes over the years. The original Dating Game aired from 1965 to 1980, also on ABC, followed by several syndicated versions. What do you think should replace Guiding Light (and unfortunately, no, keeping GL isn't an option)? denette@tvguide.ca Would you watch a game show after GL? (Result) YES! OOO H*ELL NO! Who Cares!

I really liked Millionaire until they ran it into the ground. It was fun when it started out for a limited time. I don't watch any game shows. I did watch Duel at night because I liked the host.

I have a VERY limited tolerance of game shows. I can watch "some" of them for a short amount of time, but I get bored by them easily, case in point, "Millionaire". It was good for a bit but like Loretta said, they ran it into the ground. I cannot and will not watch "TPIR". I won't sit still for Millionaire, Wheel, Deal or No Deal, etc. I can watch them for a short time, but................I usually end up disliking them. The only one for me that's ever had any staying power is Jeopardy.

The bad news is that there seems to be a problem with this URL. The good news is that you have just found it and notified our geeks on duty to fix it. Thank you for both.

Posts: 8024 (05/06/09 17:09:19) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	Oh, I meant to say earlier too - I do not watch any game show, do not like them at all, and the only one that catches me enjoying it at all is Jeopardy (I am not sure if it counts as a game show though - does it?) I really loathe and detest what come across yo me as artificial competition shows and Reality shows. I prefer dramas (a wide-ranging kind - thriller, mystery, romance, character studies, what-have-you) and documentaries and a few of the comedy shows when I am not watching the news. That is it. My tolerance is really limited for the kind of noise I will put up with from my television! Malar

The only game show I watch (sometimes) is Lingo.I like Chuck Woolery and I love word games. Otherwise,if there is no light,I will watch the decorating shows. I detest sitcoms.

I will occasionally watch Wheel of Fortune, but I hate it when people yell on there...GIVE ME A "T" PAT!!! Geez he is not in the next room, quit yelling! It looks like the poll here on the board is working Dazie.

I assume the original poll was on TV Guide's page. I looked for it, but couldn't find it on there.

I watch while having my coffee. I watch one game show Jeapody. Never miss it if posiable. It took a while to get me to turn the tv on in the morning as it was. I never tape anymore I have a ton of tapes of a lot of soaps that I still haven't watched. The vhs in this house is used to watch Barney.

I did not fit the demgraphic apparently that NBC was looking for and if I was not good enough to watch Another World, I sure as heck was not going to watch Passions. That is when I switched my 2pm viewing to ATWT. On the other hand, GL is shown here at 10 am, and I usually have it on while I am doing housework or something--there are no other soaps on at that time and I really dont want to switch to another soap anyway, I have 2 others I also watch and if (WHEN) GL moves to another network, I will continue to watch that. I am a big game show fan and I would probably watch a game show ( depending on what it is --not the dating game) because 10 am to me is game show time ( I grew up in the 70's) I cant stand the View or Regis and Kelly and those are my other choices at 10 ( on regular tv) so since a game show is not in the same genre as GL I would probably watch it or give it a shot( as housework background noise)--and still watch GL when it moves. I would not watch if another soap replace GL. Last Edited By: Mommy38 05/08/09 08:28:15. Edited 1 times.
