Amazing (Cable) Race |
Wednesday, June 01, 2005 |
GSN's "in final negotations" to enquire all 7 seasons of the hit CBS show The Amazing Race to air. No one's saying much about anything right now, but this may be a very, VERY smart move for GSN. The last season of TAR garnered 13 million viewers overall, and had a 5.3/13 ratings share for the "key" demographic of 18-49 adults (and kids at heart, I guess.) With the mainstream popularity of, IMO, the best reality show on television, GSN is doing a good thing here with this acquisition. Plus, I had the finale of TAR on my PSP. It was good. The Outdoor Life Network, OLN as they say, is also in final negotiations to get all 10 seasons of that other CBS show, Survivor. The downside of this is that Richard Hatch will, in fact, be getting airtime on TV again. Damn.
