A happy 30th anniversary to GSN aka Game Show Network!

"The goal is to get a milkshake on the board" is my favorite part of this.

We miss you Peter Tomarken.

@Fries I believe I've seen a few videos that showed a commercial from GSN mentioning honoring Peter Tomarkin from 2006.

Happy 30th Anniversary to Game Show Network! #30thAnniversary 🎈🎈🎈🎊🎊🎊

[@PatrioticPirate]

When I was in school, I used to get laughed at because I would exitedly talk about how someone won $10,000 on some game show. The laughers can all shut up.

[@transgamergirl3649]

i would say thats awesome and i'd say forget the laughter they're just jealous because they don't have game show network! and i love game shows too, and video games.

[@calzonemaniacsvideocorner0804]

The funny thing about Tomarken introducing GSN's launch is that the show he hosted, Press Your Luck, wasn't on GSN at launch, but rather on the block of game shows on the USA Network. It wouldn't air on GSN until 2001, nine years after the launch of the channel.

The old Game Show Network from 1994-2004 was my childhood days and too bad it’s not coming back.

Since some of you miss the old Game Show Network, some of the shows that used to be on there are now on Buzzr.

[@drewzuhosky6826]

An increased reliance on recently-aired game shows has done GSN in during recent years. Buzzr has succeeded where GSN is failing its viewers currently.

The best quality version of the launched GSN when it was good.

[@wendyokoopa7048]

When gsn was good. Also rest in peace Peter. Hopefully the whammy is leaving you alone

[@newsman9539]

@Harry Engel I like what you said about Game Show Network. I would like to see Game Show Network airing Wheel and Jeopardy from the 80s thru 2000s. Also partner with buzzr air freemantle shows like The Price Is Right, what's My Line, Beat The Clock and more. What do you think?

[@transgamergirl3649]

@Harry Engel i would have to agree quite honestly, my favorite eras are 1998-early 2004 and 2004-2008

[@tiffanymorgan6562]

@Harry Engel I remember some of the original Game Show Network shows like "Inquisition ", "WinTuition" (hosted by Marc Summers) and the game show where contestants had stayed awake for 24 hours straight and would win money if they could answer questions correctly. And of course, Game Show Network's PATHETIC attempt at rebooting their version of #PressYourLuck, known as "Whammy: The All-new 'Press Your Luck" without Peter Tomarken hosting the show and replacing him with a young man named Todd Newton. (Although Peter did host the pilot episode of "Whamny )

[@NewsFort]

@Fries great but what got me watching was when gsn live happened. I won on there before it was great and still had a lot of old game shows during that time. It was around 2008 I really got into the show

_All About the Opposite Sex_ a 1990 flop hosted by David Sparks. The title was *right there* on the screen, just to point it out to you.

[@pata299]

All About The Opposite Sex was one of two game shows done in the summer of 1990 by Barry-Enright, the other being Hold Everything!. Both shows lasted a mere nine weeks. David Sparks was the host

Peter Tomarken sounds as if he's losing his voice here. Either he was getting a cold or was getting _over_ a cold here.

Too bad they don’t show old game shows on game show network anymore.

Only match game was left. They better do something on their 30th anniversary or imma go mad. No wonder buzzr is better.
