GSN's 1 vs. 100

Thanks to Chad Mosher who posted the premiere episode of 1 vs. 100 the new GSN version on Youtube.com we are able to bring a review.

First off you can see that there have been some changes to the show. One of the major changes is that the show has dropped its $1 Million top prize and it's now $50,000. The show is now shortened from 1 hour to 30 minute broadcasts. And the mob is no longer in person on stage.

Now my opinions:
We now have a new host to the show. Move over Bob Saget (Full House) and in Carrie Ann Inaba (Dancing With the Stars) to host the show. It is a bit different but can't really say anything about her hosting style as it is too early to tell.

I must say that dropping the grand prize down to $50,000 might not make the game more tantalizing but, I guess since the show is no longer a mainstream network game show in the US (aka ABC, CBS, NBC, etc.) anymore then well I guess that would explain a lot on the prize drop.

Another thing is we see that the show has reverted back to the two helps rather than offering three. "Poll the Mob" & "Trust the Mob". Unfortunately GSN decided to drop "Ask the Mob". I guess since Ask the Mob might be more difficult now with the new mob setup. Amongst the changes, the Mob is now on a big screen rather than being in person on the stage. In my opinion about this, it makes the mob less intimidating for the contestants. I mean when the mob is out there on the stage you can easily read them where as with them all on web cams they can easily easily poker face it.

Now my final comment on the show. Over all I would say it's not really that impressive for a comeback, but maybe it will come back for a second season. If so, Shaggy32 has this to say, I will definitely try out for either the mob or the one!

Remember if you want to catch new episodes of 1 vs. 100 on GSN Monday-Friday @ 7:00pm EST / 4:00 PM PST.

In case you missed the premiere episode:

Game Show Video of the Week: (11/13/10 - 11/21/10)

I know it's been two weeks since the death of Charlie O'donnell of Wheel of Fortune so this week's video is going to be from the 11/5/10 episode of Wheel of Fortune. Not only do Pat and Vanna tribute the voice behind the wheel, but there is also a really amazing Wheel Solve during the main game!

11/5/10 - I've Got a Good Feeling About This!


11/5/10 - Charlie O'Donnell Tribute


I know watching the first one, we've got Jeopardy's own announcer "Johnny Gilbert", the team at Wheel might've did a quick dub over Charlie's parts for the already taped episodes due to the fact that it might be in poor taste to have Charlie O'Donnell's segments still in after his death for the current tapings. Also Pat and Vanna re-did their closing segment for the episode to tribute O'donnell. I think that this might've been a good idea for right now. Also If it is true that Rich Fields is coming to the Wheel for right now. To special guest fill-in, we'll try to get a clip of it.

Thanksgiving Marathons for GSN

On Thanksgiving Day, GSN will be serving up Deal or No Deal (Syndicated). 9AM-6PM as usual. I wonder if this marathon will fail because Syndie Deal or No Deal hasn't done so good. It did good on the first night GSN showed it.

Day after Thanksgiving marathon, GSN will air Wheel of Fortune. Not the 1994-1995 season. One of the current seasons. There is some buzz going on the GSN Message boards about this if the show will be on the schedule like in Midday or Primetime or something. I'm excited GSN is airing this Day after thanksgiving. This marathon will air 9AM-3PM ET.

Rich Fields to tape additional 35 Wheel episodes

According to GameShows.about.com, Rich Fields will be guest announcing Wheel of Fortune for 35 more episodes. As you might know, Rich Fields has been guest announcing on Wheel of Fortune. His episodes may not air until like 2011, obviously. Here is what Gameshows.about.com said (Thursday, November 11, 2010):

"There's been no official announcement regarding Rich Fields taking over the spot permanently, and I'm guessing that's because the powers that be are waiting to see how the 12 episodes he's already voiced will go over once they've all been aired. I'm not going to jinx anything here by making projections, but this is definitely positive news."



"The funeral mass for former Wheel announcer Charlie O'Donnell was held yesterday, and by all accounts it was a lovely service. In attendance were Pat Sajak, Vanna White, Wink Martindale, Bob Eubanks, Dick Clark, Bob Goen, Rich Fields, and Randy West, among many others."

"Don't Want to see a Naked Grandma"

This is a funny Family Feud video!

Game Show Video of the Week: (11/1/10 - 10/7/10)

I am sorry the video of the week is a day late, I have been away for the weekend so really didn't do much. Due to the recent passing of Charlie O'Donnell, Wheel of Fortune is today's video. Today's Video comes from December 23, 2008's episode of Wheel of Fortune. It is has an appearance of Charlie!

Charlie O'Donnell Passed away...

According to Buzzerblog, Charlie O'Donnell passed away. He passed away overnight. Now a GSN Message Board user (Whom I'm not going to mention his name) said "I don't see why this man would deserve a day of his announcing on Wheel of Fortune which GSN doesn't even have the rights to anymore. I mean, Charlie O' Donnell wasn't that well known of announcer like Olson, Wood, and Clark were."


Well, let me tell you, He may not be a "well-known" announcer but he has been announcing on Wheel of Fortune since the 1980's if I recall correctly. Heck, Johnny Gilbert wasn't well known either and he's been announcing on Jeopardy! since the 1980's.

He has announced on other shows in the past such as (Card Sharks, Trivia Trap, Family Feud, To Tell the Truth) That is according to Wikipedia. They haven't updated his page yet.

R.I.P Charlie O'Donnell

Wheel of Fortune Announcer

Unsatisfied with Encore!!!!

I know I normally post about game shows, but your thinking why are you posting this now...I am posting this about Encore.

We all know that Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? and Hollywood Squares H2 were released by Ludia and Encore. I do not have complaints about the game itself at this time. I have merely complains about Encore.

Here is the biggest complaint that most of you who bought the game are wondering: Where is the game on the field "What Product are You Registering?". Well I hate to tell you it's not there. It has been almost 2 months since the game has be released and that you would think that Encore would've put it on the list by now. Well your thoughts would be wrong. Encore really should get it's act together.

I had submitted in the first email on 9-30-2010: I have a copy of Hollywood Squares H2 and Millionaire and I cannot find them listed in the product listings when i go to the registration page. And you would think they would get back rather promptly, nope.

I wouldn't get an email back about 2 weeks later on 10-14-2010:

Dear Shaggy32,

When you would like to register a new application you have received, but find you are unable to register the application through the installation process, you may use the link provided below to complete the registration process.

Please click or follow one of the following links to register your software:

Now you would think that it would help nope so I replied: That did not help. In the drop down box that you go through for "What Product you are Registering:" the game titles Who Wants to be a Millionaire & Hollywood Squares H2 is not listed at all. And those are the products I am trying to register.

And here is what the response I had gotten back: Older and discontinued titles may not be available on the registration form. You may bypass the registration and continue to use the programs without issue. Failure to register your software does not diminish your warranty rights.

Sincerely,

Kathy H.
Customer Service and Technical Support

I must say I did reply back, but have yet to get a response, so I have sent a new request in...if they keep up the bad answers through their customer support, they are going to lose a lot of the Game Show Gamers buying their games and registering them.

Game Show UPDATES!

I haven't posted here in awhile so I'll post up some updates:



"Syndicated Deal or No Deal comes to GSN"

4:30PM - Catch 21
5:00PM - Deal or No Deal
5:30PM - Deal or No Deal

7:00PM - Deal or No Deal
7:30PM - Deal or No Deal
8:00PM - Family Feud (O'Hurley)
8:30PM - Family Feud (Karn)

November 15th, 1 vs. 100 comes to GSN and I believe it will air at 7PM or 7:30PM so, this will work out great if this is the case that GSN is bringing Syndi Deal on there schedule.



"GSN picks up new relation ship show Love Triangle"

Buzzerblog posted this yesterday. Here is some of what they said PLUS casting info.


GSN’s ongoing development slate continues to widen. The network is currently casting for the new relationship game show Love Triangle. Love Triangle is produced by 3 Ball Productions and Silly Monkey Media. 3 Ball has brought you shows like The Biggest Loser and Beauty and the Geek.

According to the casting notice, Love Triangle uses scientific profiles to let people see what each person will be like in the future. Each contestant will get to ask potential dates different questions like other dating shows. The contestant will find out which is the best scientific match, but has the choice between that person or another one. Essentially, it’s The Dating Game with body-aging software thrown in. It looks like forty episodes are being taped.

I guess GSN is doing dating shows these days.



Also, "The Hub" launched on October 10th. Family Game Night and Pictureka began!



SCHEDULE UPDATES: As you saw, GSN picked up Syndicated Deal or No Deal. GSN had Family Feud with Richard Karn airing Monday and Friday, Dawson aired Tues-Wed-Thurs. Now, GSN will put Dawson Feud on at 9AM ET and Karn at 9:30AM Monday-Friday.

Pages added

I added some pages to the blog! Home | Shaggy's Archives/Labels | Shaggy's Links you can look at them all by clicking on those pages.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire - 2010

For those who have yet to know what's going on. I am going to say this the new format is intresting, as it took out the old money ladder! But for those who missed the debut of the season opener, thanks you youtuber Mecha03, we are able to show you the first episode of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire!

Before you can view info on the new game format:

New Features:
Two Rounds of Gameplay:

• New Millionaire - The First 10 questions are now randomized as well as all the dollar amounts are randomized. This means that you could have the hardest question equaling $100 or even the easiest question worth $25,000.
• Classic Millionaire - The last four questions are played like the original millionaire with the money ladder, as the questions get progressively harder. The values in order are: $100,000; $250,000; $500,000; and $1 Million.

The Lifelines:

• Ask the Audience - The long run life that has been there since the original days. This lifeline you all know allows the contestant to poll the audience to help them on a question.
  
• Jump the Question - This is the newest to be added into the lifeline family. Unlike it's predecessors, a contestant is given two of these at the beginning of the game instead of one. This little lifeline allows the contestant to jump the question; however, if a contestant uses this lifeline the amount the question is worth is removed from play and not placed into the contestants bank.
• Walk Away - This lifeline like Ask the Audience has been there since the beginning, however can only be used when a contestant has exhausted all three of the other lifelines. Starting in Season 9 this year there is a hitch to Walking Away. If a contestant likes decides to use this option during New Millionaire they will be walking way with only 1/2 of what they have banked; however, if they make it to Classic Millionaire they can walk away with the full amount.

Set Changes:

• Contestant Area - tHot Seat is removed. And replaced with a contestant podium. This allows contestants to walk around freely on the floor if they are stumped on a question.
• New Big Screen - In the area where they had the big screen in the background for displaying the logo, later on the timer / question value, and also Three Wiseman/Ask the Expert. That was replaced with a bigger screen to display the questions for the contestant now.

Now to begin the new season of Millionaire:

Just a Reminder: if you want to watch Millionaire, you gotta check your own local listings!

PinPoint!

Well, I taped my episode of PinPoint today! And I really enjoyed myself with it. And was informed that the episode(s) I taped today will be up on Monday, August 30, 2010, Wednesday, Sept 1, 2010, and Friday September 3, 2010! So I hope you all enjoy it. But anyway if you want to join in the game I will give you a rundown:

Monday -
3 Contestants are started off with 1,000 Oodles. And, after drawing lots to see who goes first. The game starts that each contestant gets their own survey. IT is up to the contestant to determine what percentage they think the people said for their answer! For every number they are off, they will lose 5 oodles. (IE: If the contestant says 50 and the answer was 25, you'd lose 125 oodles.) After the individual surveys are asked, the unused one from the four original choices will become the free-for-all, all contestants will lock in their answers. The answer is then revealed however the contestants know theirs' but they don't know the others, so they have a chance to opt out. If someone opt's out they get to keep their oodles, but if no one does that then the player in the last place will be eliminated and lose all their oodles that they banked.

Wednesday-
The two remaining contestants recieve an additional 500 oodles added to that they already earned. Like the previous round there are surveys to choose from, but this tme there are 3, 2 individual surveys and 1 free for all. However all points are then 10 oodles for being off! And they get to opt out, but if neither one does the one with the higher amount wins. But, if you want to play it safe and opt out, you keep your banked oodles.

Friday-
Though making it to this episode, all oodles one from Monday and Wednesday are safe. Though a new bank of 5,000 oodles is presented for the final three surveys, like before the questions, but this time the stakes up to 50 oodles at a lose per every percent off. As long as the contestant has at least 1 oodle left in the bank, the contestant has the option to either playing on or keep what was in the bank. It comes down to one final survey. If the contest comes within 5% higher or Lower than the actually % will be doubled. If they hit on it exactly, whatever is in the bank will be multiplied by 5!

Good Luck to all future competitors and ya know what here's the link to play the game:

Sherri Shepherd to Host “Newlywed Game”; Now Casting, Begins November 1st

Buzzerblog reported today that the rumors were true. There has been alot of buzz about Sherri Shepherd hosting The Newlywed Game. Sherri Shepherd is a panelist on The View.

Here is the casting info: "The only real stipulation is you have to be married for less than two years. If that’s you, you can be on the show and play for a second honeymoon. To apply, email CastingNewlyweds@gmail.com and include a recent photo, date you were married, phone number, your email address, and then your city and state. After you email this to them, you’ll get an application and hopefully you’ll get on the show."

I'm glad that Carnie is gone. I am happy that she isn't hosting but I am not a fan of Sherri or The View. I would take Jeff Foxworthy over her but, atleast it isn't Carnie Wilson hosting.

GSN going HD in September

I heard this from Buzzerblog, GSN will be going in HD September 15th. Here is what Buzzerblog said is going to be HD:

" If you look at upcoming schedules you’ll see that basically all of GSN’s originals will be in HD. Newlywed Game, Catch 21, Late Night Liars, High Stakes Poker and Million Dollar Poker Challenge will all be in HD for sure."

They are not sure about Doubles Poker. Doubles Poker will premiere tomorrow replacing Million Dollar Challenge I think.

GSN reviving 1 vs. 100

This news is probably old news but, GSN is reviving 1 vs. 100. Not sure on who will host the show, the only thing I know is, it's coming back.

The money ladder could stay the same, the setting could but, who knows? I want your thoughts: What do you think could change on 1 vs. 100 and how? Just comment below.

Buzzerblog.com has reported this. Here is what I predict: The setting will stay the same. The money ladder will change (because right now, GSN seems to be going cheap. I can't think about what could be the money ladder but, if a person goes all the way, they could win $250,000 or $500,000.

Finally, a decent game show.

The Future of classics on GSN

It's time to think about the future of classics.

Classics GSN Use to air:

1. Press Your Luck

2. Blockbusters

3. Child's Play

4. Card Sharks (Rafferty)

5. What's My Line?

6. I've Got a Secret

7. The Name's The Same

8. Password

9. Super Password

10. Password Plus

11. The Newlywed Game (Eubanks)

12. Love Connection

13. Let's Make a Deal

14. Wheel of Fortune

15. Tic Tac Dough

16. Jeopardy!

Here are some classics GSN aired for (I think a year or something):

1. Double Dare

2. Body Language

3. Beat The Clock

Total: 19 classics.

GSN aired shows like Tic Tac Dough to test and see what shows people would much rather watch. GSN would rather watch shows like Deal or No Deal, Family Feud (O'Hurley, Karn) etc. There popular originals are: The Newlywed Game, Baggage, Catch 21.

Late Night Liars apparently bombed in the ratings. Last night was the season finale. I think GSN airs too much Deal or No Deal...Ridiculous.

A Welcoming!

We are excited that we've now added Phimat37 from GSN.com to our Blog's Posters Lineup!!!!! Give him a great welcoming and treat him with the same Game Show respect as you do me!!! Just a heads up we'll have fun fun fun until the end of the summer time!

Games Shows Release Dates!!

Well, we now got some release dates for you all for this fall's Video Games!!!!!!!!!

First off we got the must anticipated Hollywood Squares, from Ludia, and will be for the Wii & PC platforms! The average price for the Wii Game will be $29.99 and will be out on October 5, 2010. However, those who want to play it on the PC will have about a month before hand because the release date is September 7, 2010, and the price for it will be $19.99. (Please note that the prices listed here are from Amazon.com). Pretty much both games will be the same play where you have to play through it to unlock stuff and have fun. Amongst the show's celebrities that have been brought to the game is Host Tom Bergeron, Kathy Griffin, Brad Garrett, Jeffy Tambor, and even Martin Mull as the center square. You'll have Multiplayer and Single Player Mode options. So if you like playing with X's and O's you'll be enjoying this game!

Another game this year added into the Ludia family will be none other than Who Wants to be a Millionaire?! The Game is going to be made for the Wii, DS, and PC platforms

! Both the DS and Wii Games will be released on October 5, 2010, like the H2 Hollywood Squares.

And will contain the game elements from the show.

Pretty much take the timer

version of the ga

me and add in the Press Your Luck, Family Feud, & The Price is Right games's avatars, you can create your own and play to see if you can get the Millionaire! The Price you'll be paying will be $29.99 for the Wii & DS, and the $19.99 for the PC Game, which the suggested street date is September 7, 2010! So get your Life Lines ready along with Merdith Veira's version of the show. Which this will mark the first time since Meredith has taken over that the show's game will be the Daytime Format a Millionaire PC Game! Good Luck and Get the Millions on that!

Now by popular demand, as brought in the last post, Wheel

of Fortune will be released this year as well. Brought out this year by THQ. For the first time ever both Pat Sajak and Vanna White will be hosting the game. Bringing us for the first time ever for the Nintendo Platform since the N64 release of a wheel game, it's bringing us the current format and also compatible with W

ii Speak, allowing gamers to now only shout out

letters but also solving the puzzles! The price will be for both the Wii and DS is $29.99. And will hit the streets November 2, 2010. So remember not only has the show spun it's way into our hearts and also our televisions, but it's also been around for over 28 years (Daytime & Nighttime Combined) This show will be allowing us to also have the Free Play and Wild Card, so anyway good

luck and avoid the bankrupt.

Finally the last game to be released this year also by THQ is none other than Jeopardy! Like Wheel of Fortune this game is also going to be

released by THQ and on Novmeber 2, 2010. Bringing the elements of the game to it, this game will also be compatible with the Wii Speak. You can either play with your own Mii's or pre-made avatars for the game a

s well as Alex Trebek is back! The set used is the most recent set that they started using in 2009. Anyw

ay like Pat and Vanna, a Mii version of Alex is used (much like how it was done with Deal or No Deal). Oh also don't forget when you shout out your answers using the Wii Speak, they must be in a form of a question!!! So enjoy the clues that will be many and playing the game as the show is brought to your very own living room as you play the game!

Finally, don't forget last year's games:

Squarse and Wheels?

Hey Everyone,

First off I want to say that I am sorry I haven't posted anything in a while. I've been very busy with work and some new projects lined up that I hadn't really any time to update the blog. But I do have something to announce.

First off, when searching the net to see if there was any updated news on the Hollywood Squares, I found the first of possibly many images that are going to be shown online. This is really something special. Credit for this image goes to Frisky Mongoose. Pretty much the game will have clips from the TV Show as well as Multiplayer Games. Like Press Your Luck, The Price is Right, and Family Feud the Game will allow you to create avatars, and play the game as on the TV Show. But it is still slated for later on in 2010, probably around October/November maybe December. But there is no information on which of the bonus rounds, and which host they picked but all in all it looks like a promising game and I hope we finally get a chance to the squares in video game form. This will be the first game since the one released in 1989 based on the Davidson. But by looking at the picture it looks like it's based off the 1998-2004 version. Anyway I can't wait until I get a copy myself.

Now moving on we now to got part two. After also checking that I found a copy of the Wheel of Fortune 2010 to see if it got updated I found the trailer and I have it here for you, this looks promising as well as since you can use your Miis to play in there. The Game play will mirror that of the show. As well as have the Free Play, Wild Card, and Million $$ Wedge. It also features Mii Versions of Pat Sajak & Vanna White (I believe this is the first game to incorporate both Vanna and Pat). Also unlike the previous games. The Game will utilize the Wii Speak to shout out letters and solve puzzles. Anyway the trailer is below to view it.


I will try to get some updates as soon as I can but anyway thank you for your time and remember to Win Win Win!
