Colbi: Some members of our viewing audience will receive......
The Real Love Boat has capsized at CBS.
The Eye network has yanked the romantic reality competition from its lineup, effective immediately. The decision comes just four episodes into its freshman run.
Beginning Wednesday, Nov. 2, new episodes of The Amazing Race will follow Survivor at 9/8c, while CBS drama encores will fill the 10 pm time slot, beginning with a repeat of The Equalizer. Remaining episodes of The Real Love Boat will drop Wednesdays on Paramount+, starting with Episode 5.
The Real Love Boat premiered on Oct. 5 to just 2.4 million total viewers and a 0.3 demo rating (in Live+Same day numbers), among the lowest numbers for any non-CW series launch this fall. With Live+7 playback factored in, it has only added 20 percent to its total audience and barely improved its demo number at all, besting only CW fare among this fall's new shows.
The unscripted Love Boat offshoot, hosted by real-life marrieds Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell, brings singles together to sail the Mediterranean on a luxury cruise ship while looking for love. "Destination dates, challenges and surprise singles will test the couples' compatibility and chemistry," says the synopsis — and "like the beloved original scripted series, the indispensable crew members, including captain and cruise director, play pivotal roles in the matchmaking and navigation of the romantic (and sometimes turbulent) waters ahead."

Season 2 of TUG OF WORDS will premiere on Monday, November 14 at 3:30 p.m. ET on Game Show Network and air weekdays.
From the producing team behind "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire," TUG OF WORDS is a fast-paced game where two teams compete to answer word clue questions correctly and pull the flag on the "tug of war rope" to their side. In round one, each answer involves changing a single letter in the word that appears on the board. For example, with 'TUG' on the board, the answer to the clue 'a label inside a garment' is 'TAG,' and with 'TAG' then on the board, the answer to the clue 'hopefully the upstairs neighbors aren't learning this dance' is 'TAP.' With each round, an additional letter is added creating four and five letter words to solve. The team with the flag on their side after three rounds wins the game, qualifying them for the bonus round where they have opportunity to compete for $10,000.

Buzz-GSN where we ask you guys on the Game Show Network Facebook page anything and everything.
We go to Michelle Browning first.
Why are you replacing Chain Reaction with the Chase? The Chase sucks!! I can't believe you are getting rid of an awesome show like Chain Reaction. PLEASE keep it on and put the Chase on at a different time. I love Dylan and Chain Reaction. Sad to say, if the shows gone, then I am gone.
It's because everybody wants to see the newest Master Minds and that's fair, so they decided to dig up the only GSN version they have in their honor. Now we go to Leander Beatty, Jr.
Great news, Game Show Network fans. I just saw the commercial today that "Masterminds" is coming back. More so, they have a new Mastermind! His name is Mark "The Beast" Labbett, formerly of The Chase! Ken Jennings is hosting Jeopardy now, so he probably won't be back. But I suspect Muffy and Jonathan will be back. And of course, Brooke Burns is still the host. This is going to be great! Welcome back, Masterminds!
Master Minds, stand up! Now we go to Kevin Cearley.
Somebody please fire a writer on the show. But we go right now to Jewell Brown.
I don't much appreciate you taking off the Idiotest on Satutday and Sunday nights ! Also taking MasterMinds and Common Knowledge and replacing it with that PeoplePuzzler show. All of us don't do the streaming. I wish people would just leave well enough alone !
Look, Pluto TV still has Idiotest, so look that up and you only get 2 seasons of it. And now, it's Mary Lachelt.
WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF FAMILY FEUD - IT'S BEEN OVERKILL FOR A LONG TIME!! THERE MUST BE OTHER GAME SHOWS TO WATCH. PLEASE TAKE THEM OFF THE AIR WE NEED A BREAK!!!
Don't you understand? Feud is what keeps the network afloat so that they can make more money to keep the ratings up. Much like every other cable network that marathons one show almost every single day. Lastly, it's Nancy kaszas.
What happened to all the different games that came on late night? Is it going to just be family feud after 1 am?
They're gone in a flash but may ir may not return soon. Where's the ones from the 2000s? I miss them.
