GSN The Know, the blog that almost knows a lot about everything. Here is Pierre Kelly.
Me: On the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington, a moment in American history this week, we march into a never ending parade of game shows on an entire network 24/7/365. Hilty is leading the parade and I'm the grand marshall to the blog, so fire the gun, Hilty!

After Family Feud taking 6 slots, Baggage, believe it or not, took 7th position with Feud filling out the rest. Now the ones fallen to the back of the drumline.

Sherriwed, $ale and Baggage kicked it off first with Feud and Super Password getting stuck in a sea of Match Game shows. That ends the first. Hilty will now float off.

The dog days of summer are nearing, but who's best in show and who's a can of dog food? It's our Yay & Yawn.

The Yay: The very first week of "The Chase." $180,000 in the bank to 3 strangers and The Beast isn't too happy about this.

The Yawn: Baggage taking the place of Chain Reaction on Friday Nights. However, that might not be permanent, because....

After the jump, which shows will be getting replaced on that night. I ask you to stay here for that.

Back again and we found some changes. Starting at 7 Eastern, it'll start with an hour of Minute, 2 Chase shows and then Baggage afterwards. However.....

"The Chase" will be outta here come the week of September 9th. Can this be true? To find out, we have a segment called.....

Chart That! Hilty has returned to give the weekly reports on the Chase and where they stand prior to this week.

For the first week, The chase was at #13, but slid somehwere in the top 30 for that week. Not off to a good start, but.....

One epsiode the next week ended up at #46. Why aren't they watching this? It's because UK verisons are better than the ones around here. If you want Pointless, Celebrity Juice or The Cube to end up in the US, will it happen? I guess not. Other than that, enjoy your somewhat afterlife on gsntv.com.

And a quick shoutout to Julie Harris who passed away this past week. She was a panelist on Match Game '75 with Gene Rayburn and a few more to add.

And to giev you a preview of Overtime this Friday, Buzzfeed brought in 22 best Moments in the Steve Harvey era of Feud. It's in .gif form, but this Friday, i'll give you 5 in YT form.

Time for the 2nd intermission in which swagbucks.com is the sponsor and we end Acoustic August with Alexi Blue. Since her last name is my favorite color, she's done a lot of covers for YT including this one you're about to see.



And coming in is the 3rd period....



1 year ago. A show changed America foever. It was called "The American Bible Challenge." Many people thought it would be a flop or a disaster, but people tuned in just to see how this thing goes. How did it happen? A big happening. Not a hit. A homerun. That made the network what it is today. It was all about the Bible with pop culture references sprinkled in. You add Jeff Foxworthy and a choir to the mix and you bring in 3 teams playing for charity, not real money. All in all, it became top of the list TV for the network and many people who to church all watch it and with the 3rd season set for next year, there's no denying when the monster hit will continue.
