Game Show Network obviously doesn't want to pay for both shows 5 days a week all year long because it'll cost. therefore by showing it on just two days, they SAVE what they would be spending airing the shows everyday. TV Favorites 10-05-2002, 01:07 AM GSN is partly owned by Sony who owns the rights to Wheel and Jeopardy, so I doubt the cost is that high for them They don't air them for free, but they probably get a good deal on them |
