Here's the deal

  • Mood: Okay

I know I hadn't updated in a while, but things have been on a flip-flop. This site has had to undergo a major change, as the game show videos of YouTube are being taken off. The upsetting thing is that YouTube is removing all copyright material come September. I have started a group rebelling this decision on Facebook. I say that, because the TV shows are mostly what brings us to YouTube. I must stress this to all companies, this site among many other fine game show sites, is only here to provide the entertainment of the people in the real world, and no challenge of copyright is challenged or implied. Other people who have removed their game show videos were gsguy12, namk19, fauxuser416 (whose account is now closed), and other people who were doing the same thing to show the entertainment vids.

Also last July, FlashGameshows removed The Joker's Wild, Russian Roulette, High Rollers, Tic Tac Dough and Bullseye from their gaming database because of a Sony claim. All others remain still, including their newest game Caesar's Challenge from season 1. I don't know what else is going to happen.

In game show news, after the final episode for The Price is Right's very own Bob Barker, FreMantle was going across trying to find someone as a replacement for the king of game shows. Bob had 50 years on television and today hopes to retire well. He said Rosie O'Donnell might be a good choice to host the show, but after reading a magazine at Wal-Mart, people had said that if Rosie had hosted the show, they would either change the channel or turn the TV off completely. Besides, Rosie's in New York and TPIR is in Los Angeles. But, I wouldn't tune in to her anyway. Other options have been going around, and my choice would have been Marc Summers of Double Dare. They were also narrowing down on Mark Steines of Entertainment Tonight, and Todd Newton from GSN's Whammy!. Some people have said even Peter Tomarken might've been a good choice, even though he's been dead for nearly a year and a half now, after that plane crash on March 13th, 2006. But, TPIR has found a new host: Drew Carey from Whose Line is it Anyway. I wish Drew lots of luck as he goes in for TPIR's 36th season.

Also, when I woke up this morning, I received a BREAKING NEWS e-mail on Merv Griffin from one of my Yahoo! Group supporters, NBCScrabble. Merv Griffin, the creator of Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!, has passed away in Cedar Sinai Hospital this morning of prostate cancer. Griffin had the same cancer in 1996 and survived, but he did not survive it this time. God rest Griffin's soul as he joins Gene Rayburn, Peter Tomarken, and many other great personalities up in heaven.

Check out my new channel in the video database section. A lot more stuff is on its way.
